I saw Iggy Pop perform live for the first time when he was 50 and he was fucking amazing. This Iggy Pop action figure helps to immortalize in plastic what Iggy looked like at about that age. You need to own it. Pre-order for just $14.99 right now at This Link for an estimated ship date of June 3, 2011. Oh, and you also get Free Shipping! Iggy Pop!

When I first laid my baby blues on Miss Mary Jane, a limited edition, resin figure designed by artist Paige “Paigey” Pumphrey and manufactured by Patch Together, I thought I was looking at a little alien pixy with a massive broccoli floweret for hair. But closer investigation revealed what should have been obvious from the start: Mary Jane’s hair is huge bud of pot, duh. Furthermore, her adorable hooded jumpsuit is actually a Ziplock baggie, how appropriate! Miss Mary Jane is 8-inches tall when fully assembled (some gluing is involved) and sells for $59.95. While they currently appear to be sold out, you can request a re-stock at This Link.
