Michael Jackson Thriller doll from Hot Toys.

It's gonna include a Zombie head & suit!!!

We are so there....

P.S. If you play Plants vs. Zombies, there's a dancing Michael Jackson zombie who turns up in the higher levels.

Because Jeremy evidently thought we needed to see this again

Bwahaha!

OK, it's not exactly Stitch toilet paper, it's a Stitch "tissue roll," and what you do is you get a cute character container, stick this inside, and then pull out a bit at a time, to use kinda like Kleenex.

But, it is, nonetheless, awesome.

(Yeah, it's from Japan. Did you even need to ask?)

EDIT: Here's a piccie of Stitch vomiting out some tissue.

Tiki: now with 33% more gay!

tikistitch is 66% HeteroHow hetero are you? How hetero is Martha Stewart? Try out any Twitter name and get the real picture. Are we really the words we use? Hope to see you at Stockholm Pride!

This was supposedly based on finding the words "Sailor Moon" and "Bruno" in my Twitterfeed.

You only got this for the packaging, didn't you

Wed, 15 Jul 2009 18:56:41 GMT

Well, yeah, guilty.

We're obviously not gonna wear 'em.

Only in Japan: slippers come with instructions!! Pa! Gyu-gyu! Piin!

Framed

Wed, 15 Jul 2009 17:19:29 GMT

Still sifting through Casa de Tiki's unending backlog of Stitchery...

This is a frame that is most likely from one of the Tokyo Dizzyland "Find Stitch" events.

We thought this was kewl because, if you've been lucky enough to actually attend a Find Stitch event, this is how they decorate the park.

They paint leetle Stitchie paws everywhere, and they make a Stitch out of flowers at the front entryway.

This item is probably from Tokyo Disney Sea. If you haven't gotten out there, it is totally recommended.

They have a whole swath of the park that's decorated with a steampunky Jules Verne theme. This frame shows Stitch riding in one of the steamy water cars.

Got kawaii?

This is probably one of the cutest sets ever made in the history of forever.

Think the translation is something like "Okigae Masks." Anyways, the trick is, Some little Stitchies all wearing their kigurumi suits.

AND.... Scrumpie too!

No, we're not gonna actually attempt to take 'em all out and demonstrate, given the finickyness of our macro lens lately, we'd never get a decent piccie anyway, and then we'd be left with trying to reinsert all these teensy minis back into their jammy suits.

One observation: instead of the usual, a set of cute Stitch figures with a special Scrumpie, please to notice that this set is pretty evenly broken up at 4:4 Stitch:Scrump. Which leads us to wonder.... Is Scrumpie set to outcompete Stitch???? Hey, remember what happened to Lilo? No? THAT'S WHAT WE MEAN!!!!

OK, so, here we got with the crane machine MADNESS

Mon, 13 Jul 2009 19:01:43 GMT

Haven't done this in a loooooong time, maybe because we've been too caught up in arguing with eBay buyers over whether items that have been sitting in my doll room for 15 years are better described as "New" or "Used." But, we did snap some piccies this weekend, so here are a bunch of UFO catcher dealies from Singapore that we've had waiting in the queue for a bit. We'll present them in approximately reverse order of biggitude.

Here's a favorite: Stitch and Angel dressed up as Asian "lucky cats."

Here's a big old guy - instead of showing you a pack of ciggies for comparison, like they'd do in a Yahoo Japan auction, we've got a cup of coffee. In our "Midvale Home for the Gifted" mug.

He must be going to San Francisco.

Oh, and this is another big dude.

This is something called "Noconoco."

These are smaller versions of the Noconoco cuties.

This tag is from the guy on the right, who's actually from a different set. His cheeks are supposed to light up! We obviously need to 'speriment with this guy.

Oh, and speaking of Real Science Sperimentation, check out this cushion thingie.

According to the instructions, you let it out of the package, and it automatically embiggens. Like a Power Ranger villain or something.

Who is that behind the mask???

Surprise!

This set was probably made for Girls Day.

For no apparent reason, this set consists of Stitch in sunglasses, Stitch pretending to be a bunny, and Stitch having a grand mal seizure.

These keychains have fluff on the end. Also for no reason.

And the last - Stitch is emerging from little flowers.

President Barack Obama starring in "I Coulda Had a G8!"

Sun, 12 Jul 2009 17:26:51 GMT

Greetings, Citizens! It is I, Barack Obama Presidential Action Figure, along with my BFF, the Brand New Prime Minister of Britain, and his brand new girlfriend, who he met at my Oval Office playset. I didn't actually catch her name, but I think she's a cosmetics salesman, because she keeps shouting about "Powder Makeup!"

You might wonder why we are not hanging out, being all bipartisan and stuff at my awesome Super Excellent Presidential Oval Office of Wonder Playset. Ah! This is because we are all out riding my magical bantha, Aloysius, to the even more awesome G8 Summit International Super Excellent Action Playset. Some people seem to think I ride Air Force One to my international events. I do not. Air Force One is for punks. Aloysius the Bantha is the only way to ride!

Here we are at the Magical G8 Summit Playset, which is totally different from my Magical Oval Office playset. It's much more pink, for one thing. Can't wait to start some International Diplomacy! These international dudes, they know how to PAR-TAY!

Look! The International Diplomats are starting to arrive!!! Good morning, French President Nicholas Sarkozy. (He is one weird little dude. But his wife is a MAJOR BABE! Woo-HOO!)

OK, and now it's time for the most important part, posing for AWESOME group shots! Are you ready, President Sarkozy? What about you, Brand New Prime Minister of the UK? And how about all you, various and random Other International Dudes? Remember, don't crowd around, I have enough AWESOME to go around! Hurray for International Diplomacy!

MOAR!
Welcome to the Super Excellent Shining Crystal Oval Office Playset!.

Bruno is fabulous, darlings!

Sun, 12 Jul 2009 15:14:33 GMT

But, you already knew that.

A couple of non-spoilery comments, but I've tucked them under a cut anyways....

Firstly, I was laughing my head off from the first frame. Mr. Tiki declared it funnier than Borat.

If you expect to be offended by this kind of thing, then hell yes, you will be offended.

A LOT LESS FASHION INDUSTRY than I would have expected. This is not Zoolander with dildos.

Oh, also, the YouTube bit? That's from the Ali G. TV show, not the movie.

Bruno ist here!

Fri, 10 Jul 2009 18:39:46 GMT

We really don't know but it's got Stitch ears and it's from Japan so yay!

Fri, 10 Jul 2009 18:01:39 GMT

OK, so, we saw a picture of this in a Japanese auction, and since it looked pretty kewl (and was a tie-in to the Japanese Stitch! cartoon) we went ahead and bought it, even though we had no idea in hades what the heck it's supposed to be.

Flash forward a couple months, when it actually arrives on our stoop (OK, actually, it arrived at our PO box, and Mr. Tiki had to bring it home on the seat of his convertible because the box wouldn't all fit in the trunk, but that's another story). And, we still have no idea in hades what the heck it does.

But, it's awfully cool.

A special holiday message from your presidential action figure!

Sun, 05 Jul 2009 05:51:36 GMT

Greetings, Fellow Americans! I'm Barack Obama Presidential Action Figure, the first Presidential Action Figure with 137 points of articulation! We've temporarily suspended our neverending bipartisan cocktail hour for a very special bipartisan Fourth of July BBQ!!!

It's an important day to remind everyone of the importance of bipartisanship! For instance, even though we are celebrating our independence from Great Britain, now, thanks to bipartisanship, we are best friends! Just ask my new BFF, the brand new prime minister of Great Britain. Er, and his good friend. Who, we're not quite sure what he does. Other than hang around and eat all the bipartisan cocktail weenies. But, it doesn't matter, because, thanks to bipartisanship, we are all best friends!!

Why, look, it's Governor Sarah Palin! What brings you here to the lower 48, Governor Palin? You're waiting for the other shoe to drop? Hrm, that's unusual. Well, regardless, welcome to our Bipartisan Fourth of July BBQ!

No, Governor Sarah Palin, you may not hunt Bo, the presidential Portuguese Water Dog. No, not even from a helicoptor. That just wouldn't be bipartisan!!

Here's a bipartisan solution: my old buddy Dick Cheney is looking for a new hunting buddy! Why don't you two crazy kids go out and find somebody to shoot in the face?

See? Another problem solved through bipartisanship!

MOAR? You wants moar?
I'm Barack Obama. Welcome to my Playset!

Someone just posted this to ontd_startrek and it is so excellent.

Another post that has absolutely nothing to do with dead celebrities

Fri, 26 Jun 2009 17:58:31 GMT

We're thinking this translates to "Iikoto Memory." But, beyond that, we have no clue.

It's definitely something associated with the Stitch! TV show. And, it's got Stitch ears. And, it does something kewl. Don't worry, Tiki Labs will investigate.
