TOP TEN BLOGPOSTS on TOYSREVIL for 2021
And while I've on Mondays featured weekly lists for TOP TEN BLOGPOSTS on TOYSREVIL (The Past Week), THIS list you see here today, is based on the entirety of the 12 months of "2021", as recorded in this blog's (internal) stats!
Understandably NOT all blog-features are in the year of 2021, and quite a fair number were from past years' (spanning 2007 to 2021), and most having appeared on the Top Ten 2021-lists throughout the year too, most of whom the reasons for, still escape me LOL
THAT said, THANK YOU for reading TOYSREVIL, and Have a Fab NEW YEAR of "2022" ahead!
Cheers,
Andy TOYSREVIL
#10 TOP TEN BLOGPOST on TOYSREVIL for 2021
>>> HAPPY TREE FRIEND'S CUDDLES REVERSIBLE PLUSH was a plush with a "difference" (AKA "Dismembered limbs"), released circa 2007, and appearing on TOYSREVIL's Top Ten - the reason for why remains a mystery....! Not that I had a lot of ""Happy Tree Friends"-coverage tho... Check out the compilation video of how "Cuddles Dies" in then animated shows...! How many of you folks reading remember "Happy Tree Friends"? :)
#9 TOP TEN BLOGPOST on TOYSREVIL for 2021
>>> This "BOX BURGER CAT" BY RATO KIM-feature is from "2019", while a second pre-order happened in 2019, but with a cleaner paint application from South Korean creator Rato Kim = Both editions remain on my TOP TOY WANTS (alongside her OG Resin "BreadCat") FTW! Stay connected to her socials: Instagram + Twitter to see what else she has in the coming year, in which she has started to delve into the Universe of NFTs as well...!
#8 TOP TEN BLOGPOST on TOYSREVIL for 2021
>>> This "BLACK OUT" EDITION (MICHAELANGELO) TMNT from RealXHead X Unbox Industries is a continuation nation of the licensed TMNT-figure series interpreted by RealXHead, and was released as part of Unbox's phenomenal "Unbox Ion Black" show this year...!
#7 TOP TEN BLOGPOST on TOYSREVIL for 2021
>>> Hey! I know that guy in the above animated-gif ...! (Heh)
HULKBUSTER IN-ACTION from the defunct Comicave Studios makes an interesting add to this year's Top Ten, with this post from "2016". With the proliferation of 1/12th-scaled figures in recent times, it is not small wonder when earlier scaled releases are uncovered by collectors, IMHO. And of course IRON MAN and HULKBUSTER remain favourites, in any scale, methinks...!
#6 TOP TEN BLOGPOST on TOYSREVIL for 2021
>>> ANGRY WOOD DOLL & SLEEPING CRICKET is the first of Thailand-based Funny Model Club where they create "a collab between a classic character with a famous president,". And is followed by "TOM & TONY"...!
Featured above is the "latest" production update of the since Sold Out resin figure set, and you'd do well to stay connected to their socials: Instagram and Facebook for further updates of their "caricature" releases...!
#5 TOP TEN BLOGPOST on TOYSREVIL for 2021
>>> These COMPARISON IMAGES BETWEEN ORIGINAL & FAKE KAWS' toys - Legit and Bootlegs - is without a doubt a sort after informational guyed that I wish I had more of to share, especially with the proliferation of Bootlegs from KAWS' character creations, since this post from 2012, as lifted from a toy-forum from a well-meaning collector...! I wish I could add more guides, but I realised I do not own either a legit or bootleg KAWS toy myself...
#4 TOP TEN BLOGPOST on TOYSREVIL for 2021
>>> SYMBIOTES BY SYMBIOTE STUDIOS is a throwback post from "2009" that also remains a mystery on how it got unto this list, and previous TOP TEN TOYSREVIL BLOGPOST-lists...
#3 TOP TEN BLOGPOST on TOYSREVIL for 2021
>>> INTRODUCING NEW DIGITAL INFLUENCERS JANKY & GUGGIMON BY SUPER PLASTIC is a 2019-post that garnered interest this year, no doubt due to Guggimon being announced and apart of online gaming juggernaut "Fortnite"!
Look for him in "Season 7 Chapter 2 Battle Pass", and I have some screen-snaps and gameplay videos to share... And now JANKY has joined in the chaos too! Well done, Super Plastic, well done indeed...!
#2 TOP TEN BLOGPOST on TOYSREVIL for 2021
>>> JPTOYS-EXCLUSIVE BLACKPINK TOY TO BE REVEALED AT THAILAND TOY EXPO @HOME sees the girls of South Korean girl group BLACKPINK being toy-immortalised as styled figurines (*See in detail HERE along with purchasing links) BLACKPINK IN YOUR AREA...!
Not too sure about the girl group? Head to my music hobby blog at TUNESTALK to hear+watch them, including solos from Rosé and Lisa (LALISA)! Meanwhile, here's one of their first tracks and MV for "붐바야 (BOOMBAYAH)" (from 2016)!
#1 TOP TEN BLOGPOST on TOYSREVIL for 2021
>>> LADY ZHIVA VOID GIRL BY BHEAD is a blog-feature from 2011, featuring a post-apocalyptical world, deliciously dripping with grim grease and no future, the Korea-based artist concept designer and figure maker BHEAD had continued to capture my imaginations, even though keeping track of his art and work was a daunting affair, until recently when his Instagram @bheadworks has been flourishing with both retrospective and upcoming works...!
"LADY ZHIVA VOID GIRL" remains one of my ultimate (1/6) Toy-Grails, as far as I aka concerned, thanks.
