Showcased here in this #TodayonTOYSREVIL-blogpost today is the third "Five Points Edition" of toy-news I've trawled thru my social feeds for, available at the annual Five Points Festival 2019, the weekend of June 1st and 2nd @ the Brooklyn Expo Center (@ 72 Noble St, Green Point, Brooklyn 11222)!
I am also Facebooking and Tweeting toy news as well, so gimme a #TAG if you want your collectibles shared, cheers :)
Known specifically for their work with sculpted felt, and moe recently vinyl toy produced by UVD Toys, Horrible Adorables will be debuting THE FAMILIAR, with this purple marble colorway representing "Nutterson III", a character from their board game "Ballyhoo"!
"Nutterson’s paws are articulated so they can be posed in any spell conjuring position. Each Familiar comes with 7 game cards, a D20 dice, a coin for flipping, card markers, and a magic pouch! Come to booth 128 and play a game to celebrate and win free goodies!" (@horrible_adorables)

"Stink Box" is a series of mini figures by Andrew Bell at DYZPLASTIC and Jason Limon, with cat figures showcased taking a stinky-dump in their individual "litter-boxes", which were the actual blind boxed packaging! First released circa DesignerCon 2017", the latest "incarnation" sees a pair of one-off custom-painted by @jasonlimon x Andrew, resulting in these 6.5” tall in box, resin and wood collectibles, each priced at US$600.
Debuting at Booth #132 from Martian Toys is Jason Limon's ABOMINABLE SNOW CONE ORANGE, in a refreshingly limited run of 75pcs, each priced at US$125.
#JASPAR Artist drops will be making its debut at the weekend as well, with Jason Limon's edition revealed here!
The artist will be in attendance for a signing on Saturday 4pm-6pm.
"Space Rabbit" is the creation of artist couple Kun-I and Wendy, and they'll be offering up a line-up of various editions of their "SPACE RABBIT" figures, along with a new resin-multiple: "ONESIE CAT"! Originally a clay figurine release by @lovablycreatures, this new incarnation, along with all other Space Rabbits will be available to be adopted at (Artist Alley) Booth #C10. Updates via Insta @space_rabbit_studio.
I'd really like to give a shout out to Insta @fivepointsfest for featuring these goodies where I might otherwise not come across, or know the existence of! What event accounts such as these "work" is because they introduce to their viewers/followers more than what they might already know of, and as well brings diversity of content to mix, IMHO... but of course Im rambling like a "blogger", not necessarily a good "business man" LOL
Mashing-up the indie-iconic blister-card spirit with the kit bashed mini-KEGO figures hobby, is what SPANDEX at Artist Alley Table E13 will be showcasing; with concepts drenched in current and nostalgic pop culture influences, along with more indie-resins, with more to be seen on Insta @ron___reeves!
