When I was younger I was all about unicorns.  I had unicorns on just about everything, so when I found out about this new vinyl toy, I was ecstatic.  Kidrobot presents “Unicornasaurus” by the fantastical mind of Joe Ledbetter, proving once and for all that unicorns really do exist (I knew it!).  Part unicorn, part dinosaur, these mystical creatures boast magical pendants that hang from their rotating necks.  Available in two colors, the Unicornasaurus comes to life today and can be purchased here.  Make your dreams into a reality and own your very own unicorn!

Check out close-ups of the Unicornasaurus and the packaging after the jump . . .

Unless you have children or work in a field where you have to tend to their needs on a daily basis, say, a daycare, then it’s pretty hard to justify your collection of limited-edition dolls Bearbricks to any otherwise rational adult.

Luckily, though, no one needs an excuse to buy a cool handbag paying homage to some of their favorite plastic figurines.

This summer, Kidrobot is launching a line of new bags that are bound to make you want to be a kid all over again — except without the task of doing homework or listening to your parents complain, of course.

Ranging in prices  from $38 to $148 for canvas and $78 to $328 for reflective nylon, the brightly colored bags come equipped with three equally playful details: Munny zipper pull, a Yummy Donut key chain, and a mini Smorkin’ Labbit.

While the over-sized  weekend totes are a bit much for our liking, the backpack and messenger have our names written all over them. If you feel the same way, you can pick up your Kidrobot bag at Kidrobot stores, Nordstrom, and Bloomingdale’s beginning June 25th.

Happy shopping.

Kidrobot NYC will be opening their new doors tomorrow. I can’t imagine what they have planned for the event but I’m sure it won’t disappoint!

Last Summer, THE most talked about shoe was the Claw Money x Nike Vandal Hi…and rightly so! The legendary graff writer introduced the world not only to a well-designed shoe (the Vandal Hi had been so slept on by modern designers prior to this release!) but also to a design force to be reckoned with!

Claw Money was born in Queens and raised in Long Island. After dropping out of the Fashion Institute of Technology, Claw began bombing with legendary writers and founded graff crew PMS. Claw has worked as a fashion stylist for Korn, Ice-T, Ice Cube, and Guns N’ Roses, and has styled for Nike, adidas, Sector Watches, and Guinness. She launched Claw Money, her signature clothing line, in the spring of 2002. Fashion editor of SWINDLE magazine, Claw is also co-branding with EckoRed International, Kidrobot and Hasbro, and BPMW. Featured in the 2005 documentary Infamy, Claw has also been seen in Autograf: New York City’s Graffiti Writers by Peter Sutherland (powerHouse Books, 2004), Supreme Quality and Enamelized by Roger Gastman (Gingko Press, 2005 and 2004, respectively), and has written her own book, Bombshell: The Life and Crimes of Claw Money (powerHouse Books). She’s been featured in countless magazines around the world. She lives and works in New York City.
