Alex DeLarge - Vinyl Idolz

This will be a short blog(just another 'catch-up' post). I've been after one of these since Evil Corp originally shared a image of the design. I was so excited when they started producing toys! Thankfully they've chosen to produce some amazing characters so far & Alex is amongst them!

Last year I went to the Brisbane Supanova. I bought many things. Australia lacks variety in toys, mostly Funko & Kidrobot, but sometimes that's ok! I managed to get a little something to cover most of the realms of pop culture I indulge in!

The pinnacle item of course, was my Alex DeLarge Vinyl Idolz figure! I bought it from Popcultcha(their con booths are EPIC!). I LOVE this toy! I love the sculpt design, the smooth lines, even the paint work is quite impressive(for a Funko release).
I love that Evil Corp decided on a simple, symmetrical pose. It brings a nice contrast to the aspects of Alex's outfit that are asymmetrical.

I highly recommend the Funko Vinyl Idolz figures! Evil Corp designs are some truly aesthetically pleasing stuff!

You can check out more of Evil Corps work on their website or on their facebook!

Popcultcha no longer have the Alex DeLarge Vinyl Idolz in stock, but they do have multiple other ACO items currently available! I recommend checking out their catalogue, even international shipping tends to be quite reasonable!

Now I'm officially all caught-up with my blog! I promise to never fall so behind again! Keep an eye out for more up-coming posts. Lots of new things on there way to me that I'm eager to share!

Little Things or 'More Mail!'

Don't you love it, when you've been hunting for something for years & suddenly, there it is, in your price range! Well, that has been me, consistently for the last couple of weeks, hence my prior post & this one. Lots of mail today!
Chris Hopkins Qee's are brilliant. Highly sought after & in my experience, rarely appear on eBay. I found the Ultra Violence Qee(orange version) a few years ago, a completely random find at the time(& I won it for a surprisingly low price), but one which resulted in me becoming aware of the Violence Bear(white version). Finally, after years of searching, one appeared on eBay a couple of weeks ago. I had to outbid a couple of competitors, but now it's mine!

My Violence Qee's

Now, this next item, is in no way official, but I simply couldn't resist. I went to the Supanova Pop Culture Expo last year & hope to go again this year. If I do, I'm considering cosplay. Being me, the obvious choice was Alex DeLarge.
I'm not quite sure how I found these two weeks ago(random eBay browsing most likely) but I'm so happy I did.
Kreepsville 666 do a lot of classic horror/gore styled items, blood-splattered eyeballs seem to be a common theme across their website. Within their new catalog, they released brooches.

Green Eye

Blue Eye

I think they'll work perfectly as Alex DeLarge cufflinks. Heck of a lot cheaper then the custom made cufflinks I find now & then on eBay as well. Of course, I still need to buy white jeans & a white shirt & eyelashes. Apparently I felt the need to start with the little touches, but at least now I own blood splattered eyeball brooches.

Great price, great brand & they arrived incredibly quickly. I highly recommend having a bit of fun with your cosplay ideas, find something a little 'different' & embrace the 'weird'.
