CHICAGO, IL (February 16, 2015): Since indie toy company Warpo first entered the collectible toy market last year with a highly successful Kickstarter for their Legends of Cthulhu, 3.75" retro action figures, the next figure on the minds of toy enthusiasts has been a 12" Cthulhu, and that figure became a reality at Toy Fair this weekend as the paint master of 12" Cthulhu made its debut.

The 12" Cthulhu will be the centerpiece of the Legends of Cthulhu collection, with pose-able wings, 9 points of articulation, and pliable "gripping hands", suited for grasping 3.75" action figures to their doom.

The Goon Statue from Dark Horse

ERIC POWELL'S 'GOON' STATUE DEBUTS AT TOY FAIR 2015!

NEW YORK, NY - February 2015 - Dark Horse Comics will reveal a new statue based on Eric Powell's The Goon at Toy Fair 2015 in New York City.

The Goon is a hilarious blend of pulpy horror and slapstick comedy following the ongoing misadventures of the man they call the Goon and his sidekick Franky as they battle the legions of the undead!

In late 2012, Blur Studios, Dark Horse Entertainment, and Eric Powell successfully funded a Kickstarter campaign for a feature-film-length story reel based on Powell's beloved characters. Originally Blur Studios produced a very limited-edition faux-bronze statue for fans as an incentive, sculpted by Sean McNally, an artist involved with Blur's Goon efforts from the start. Now Eisner Award–winning creator Eric Powell and Blur Studios are set to release this gorgeously painted brutish statue for the Goon's growing legion of fans.
