Junko Mizuno teamed up with French label Judith Lacroix to release a small edition of tshirts featuring Junko’s characters. The tshirts have some of her most popular designs reworked with new colors, glitter!! and french phrases. The first tshirt on the top is amazing. I absolutely love the red glitter and the teal blue combination. I really want to buy it except for the fact that the tshirts are priced at 49 euros and that exchanges to a little over $75 USD!!! I love Junko and have spent A LOT of money hunting down her toys on ebay, buying out of print manga and all of the typical crazy super fandom, but $75 for a tshirt is too much for me atleast now. But my birthay is around the corner. Anyone anyone?
Visit Judith Lacroix for more info and purchase the tshirts.
I was reading Tokyobunnie and came across her post about the new Dunny Series 5 that will be released from Kid Robot this fall. Looked at Vinylpulse to get a little more info but the release date for this series hasn’t been announced yet. If anyone has info to share that would be great!
The second Dunny from the left is OBVIOUSLY Junko Mizuno. Great to see her working with Kid Robot again. Her Dunny looks amazing and I can’t wait to pick one up.
Flickr (one of the best websites EVER) just got a lot better. I already use it to share my photos and find great inspiration but now I can upload and share videos! Hurray. I have been wanted to put up my own videos for a while. I think the new wordpress has this feature but I like the fact that I can have my pictures and videos in one place. and screw youtube.
Well anyway, I did a little test and here it is:
Seriously, can you spot me and my duh face?
Junko Mizuno Signing at Kidrobot NY
This week has been bad for me … I have been trying to deal with the events in my life in positive way. I can’t help but think that these events are a sign to start doing the things that I want to do with my life and stop trying to please other people.
But despite all the bad things that I am going through today was a truly uplifting day for me. I met one of my favorite artists ever, a true inspiration to everything I myself create: Junko Mizuno
It was awesome finally meeting her and telling her how much her work means to me. Shes signed my 2 new Kidrobot/Junko dolls and some of her comics that I own.
Take a look at the toys after the break …

OMG! OMG! OMMMMMMGGG!
I almost had a meltdown when I saw these. I had known that they were releasing the nurse figure but not the director. Pure Trance is my favorite Junko manga and I am beyond excited that these are coming out and I think I may have to take off from work the day these come out. Both figures are limited to only 500, for $75 each, released on October 11th.
