WeenIcons to release art-toy "Ghostbuster" figure.

First they made t-shirts. That quickly spread to other types of swag. And now they’re turning those cute little figures into real little figures, including a very limited edition (120) glow-in-the-dark slimed figure.

WeenIcons, one of the first (possibly THE first) of the recent trend in referential, homage t-shirts (which is a fancy way of saying they skirt official status, preferring edgier, unsanctioned status), is turning their Peter-like design into a 3″ tall polystone statue. The results are AWESOME! And the Glow-in-the-dark figure, doubly so.

The bad news? These will only ship within the UK, so if you want to buy one, either find a specialty store that will import them or start sucking up to a Brit before April 2nd, 2010 (which is when the glow-in-the-dark figure goes on sale.)

    Oh, and the pack on the back is very inaccurate.. their banner implies the possibility of doing all 4 guys… but I’d want a more accurate pack on the back for that kind of money.. these are after all, only 3 inches tall.

  4. jef leppard says:

    The FACE is inaccurate. Bill Murray has a mouth!

  5. Ben, I think I´ll need your help on this one. I WANT IT!!

  8. Brad says:

    This figure is cute and all but I am not willing to deal with the shipping hassle for a knock off toy.

  9. 1Rocketeer says:

    “Sucking up TO a Brit”, but it actually works as mistakenly typed as well. :)

  12. castewar says:

    Gareee, did you even read the post? Or did you not notice it has the link, and the images and date from the link already?

    Kyle, they’re three inches tall, as stated.

    Holy crikeys people! “WAAAAAAAAAAA….IT IS INACCURATE….WAAAAAAAAAAA…IT IS INACCURATE…!” Why are the Real Ghostbusters inaccurate from their movie counterparts??? You guys accepted the cartoon versions of themselves yet you can’t accept this humorous version as well.
