Offshoot Toys Presents THREE Monster Toy Grails in B.U.B.

The 80's gave us so much to remember fondly, and then, later in life, we spend our leisure time hunting like crazy people for collectibles that will reignite that spark that comes with a cherished memory, and thus, dopamine is born. If you're a toy collector, this hunt becomes non-stop and borderline obsessive while most of us look completely sane on the outside! For monster toy collectors (aka Spooky Kids), there's one line that gave us not one, but THREE grails to chase... sometimes for our entire lives! I personally have had all three and lost them. I can still see their little terrifying faces. The line was called INHUMANOIDS, and at the top of this plastic food chain were three colossal monsters, one harder to track down than the next, and all three rising in price with every year that passes. If only there were some company that would pay tribute to these monstrosities with the flair of an accomplished artist and the heart of a disturbed child going crazy with crayons on a living room wall...

Halloweenies: Tenacious Toys Delivers Playful Gorilla’s Homage to an 8-Bit Horror Icon

On the spookiest weekend of the year, Benny Kline from Tenacious Toys will wave his magic wand over a bubbling cauldron of nostalgia as he revives his old haunt: Super Series Sundays!

A regular schedule of new and exclusive toy drops, Super Series Sundays once brought joy and glee to toy collectors worldwide. Supporting creators like Task One, Kyle Kirwan, Forces of Dorkness, Evilos and Nerviswr3k, the Super Series Sundays drops shine a much needed light on the creations of working toy artists. Sadly, in 2016, the 3 year campaign died a sudden and unexplained death. 

NYCC 2026: More Hijinks and Shenanigans at Tenacious Collective

 

With our sights fixed on NYCC later this week, here is another wave of info about all the cool things to be found on our corner of the Tenacious Collective Booth 1771. Look for our big blue Danger Dog neon sign and the huge lighted glass case full of toys on the corner. We are just behind the big Crunchyroll booth!

NYCC 2026: Open to Interpretation Custom Show at Tenacious Booth

Under the bright lights and amidst the biggest crowds on the East Coast, there are a few very limited and highly coveted square feet inside glass cases. NYCC is a huge show with a quarter million sets of eyeballs that can view an artist's work... if they can place it there.

Most never get the opportunity. 

That's why Alex Rivera (Playful Gorilla) suggested an open-call custom toy show to Tenacious CEO Benny Kline. They pounced quickly, orchestrating the call out to artists through the Tenacious Instagram. Everything happened within 24 hours after that post: 30+ artists secured their spots in the show, and in the big Tenacious glass case at Booth 1771. The best possible spot for an emerging artist at NYCC!

NYCC 2026: THE COLONY by GUERS @ Booth 1771

GUERS Debuts THE COLONY: 100 Hand-Cast Resin Beavers, Dropping Oct 10 and On Display at NYCC

Montreal-based independent artist Zine launches GUERS, an art toy brand, with the debut drop THE COLONY: an 11" hand-cast, hand-painted resin figure in two editions, Mocha and Obsidian, limited to 50 numbered pieces each.

GUERS is built around a single mascot, a rounded cartoon beaver with white gloves, instead of a new character every release. Future drops will keep building on the same character, including new poses and a secret rare chase. The beaver is a builder by nature, constantly shaping its own environment, which fits a first release made entirely from scratch.

A Tale of Three Trash Fires

Welcome to America, where the state of being on an average day can be expressed succinctly in a cartoon of a happy little dumpster with flames erupting from its "head". This is how we cope. We take our struggles and make our pain adorable. This image resonates with so many humans, it's been recast and painted over hundreds of times to date. Today, we'll look at three of these memes made real through the medium of vinyl art toys, courtesy of Tenacious Toys. 

BREAKOUT By Matt Bailey From Mighty Jaxx

From Mighty Jaxx Intergalactic. All that remains is the sound of flesh ripping as a part of her breaks away. A metaphor of her state when her lover leaves, the brilliant Breakout by Matt Bailey (link is 18+) captures the agony, the ache, and the torment of feeling a part of yourself torn away. Torn skin and melting flesh reveal the emptiness within her, a black goo that fills the void of her being. Breakout is made from premium polystone, with a gloss finish beautifully contrasted with matte detailing.

GID BONEYARD CANBOT by Kyle Kirwan X Czee13

In the darkest corner of the crypt, a collection of bones has risen from smoldering ashes to become the new guardian of darkness. This delightfully macabre, articulated resin Canbot was sculpted by the brilliant artist Kyle Kirwan, creating a brand new version of the iconic Canbot form originally created by Czee13.

Kirwan has taken everyone’s favorite designer toy and rebuilt it with the bones of his enemies in a glorious glow-in-the-dark (GID) colorway, merging eerie vibes with artistic mastery.

QUAKE IN FEAR, HUMANS!! The General In a Jar Comes!

We’re excited to announce the General in a Jar 2.0 drop

We're thrilled to bring back one of our fan-favorites, the General in a Jar 2.0! This handmade resin figure, topped with a cork lid, perfectly captures both authority and nostalgia. One of our followers on Instagram said it best:

‘General in a jar’—nothing quite like the idea of leadership preserved in glass.  A perfect balance of command and confinement. It’s like having authority on display, but safely contained. Just don't shake it too hard, who knows what happens when the lid comes off.  -Baron Von Shock, Curator of Strange Art and Commander of Chaos
