The Geek Shopping Ninja Strikes: Tim Burton Inspired!
Greetings Bleeding Coolers! Welcome to the seventeenth installment of The Geek Shopping Ninja Strikes. My job is to be your personal shopper and provide you with five delightfully geek-tastic things that might pique your interest. This week I'm feeling in a Tim Burton mood. I've always been a fan of his work, and because he's done a multitude of projects it's super hard to choose only a few products. None the less, I found some pretty cool stuff!
Tim Burton's Tragic Toys For Girls And Boys Stain Boy Vinyl Figure from hottopic.com.
($29.50)
Some of you may not be aware of this adorable character, but he is one of Tim Burton's characters. Add this awesome vinyl figure to your collection and wow people with your unique Tim Burton find!
Edward Scissorhands Volume 1: Parts Unknown from IDWpublishing.com.
($19.99)
Even though this one is Tim Burton inspired, I definitely recommend checking it out. I've read all of the issues thus far, and it's brilliant. Written by Kate Leth, and Drew Rausch, the story takes place years after the movie and follows Kim's granddaughter's interactions with Edward. The comic captures all of the things you love about the movie and adds many more exciting things to fall in love with.
The Melancholy Death of Oyster Boy & Other Stories from amazon.com.
($16.87)
This book is actually written by Tim Burton. The story follows a cast of misunderstood outcasts who struggle to find love and belonging in their cruel, cruel worlds. I'm ashamed to admit that I didn't even know he had his own books. This is definitely something I'll need to invest in.
Dark Horse Deluxe Tim Burton PVC Set #4: Pin Cushion Queen from DarkHorseDeluxe.
($17.99)
Here are some more awesome collectible toys. It looks like he has a bunch of different characters and designs to choose from, but this one in particular caught my eye.
Jack Skellington with Sally Figurine from DisneyStore.com.
($125.00)
So I know you're probably rolling your eyes at that price, but if I was going to put something Nightmare Before Christmas in this post, I wanted it to be epic. This Jack and Sally figure is super impressive, so if you're looking to splurge, go for it!
Now that I've given you all of this great information, go grab your wallet. Feel free to let me know your experience with any of these products by tweeting me @AWritersWay. Thanks for joining me here on Bleeding Cool for The Geek Shopping Ninja Strikes! See you next time!
