One Step Closer to Mantoothedness

From the “I wasn’t kidding” department:  I should have probably mentioned that two months ago the packaging for the Brick Mantooth dolls arrived from China. Around February I gave some money to this guy I know, after two months of no communication, more money was requested. This all seemed to be leading down the path of tears but in June I […]

Mantooth by Baron

Well, I’m back on the wagon and I thought I’d open by sharing something that arrived just in time for Christmas, a portrait of PS spokesmodel Brick Mantooth by artist Tim Baron. I was a fan of Tim’s previously for his portraits of Mego figures but I’m a sucker for Mantooth art. One of these […]

More Mantooth Mania

Talk about good omens, the first thing I saw when entering this year’s 2009 Megomeet show was Art Baltazar’s 8″ mego custom of our very own spokes model, Brick Mantooth. Art got the bug when he did a portrait of Brick a couple of week’s ago and I’m glad he did.Using a modified Big Jim […]

Aw Yeah, Mantooth!

Managed to slip across the border this weekend and hit Motor City Comic Con and while I saw and picked up a lot of fun things (which I’ll share this week), my favorite by far has to be this Brick Sketch by Art Baltazar. Art’s Tiny Titans comic is by far the preferred reading material […]

Brick Mantooth Sings

Well not really but I kind of got inspired by this Wards photo of spokesmodel Brick Mantooth because it looked like one of those cheesy LPs my dad used to sell to truck stops and Macs milk stores back in the day. He had cases of weird country albums and 8 tracks of people I’ve […]

Brick Mania

I think this may be my favorite image of all time, not only is it 95% Brick Mantooth based but it’s wonderfully absurd. I love how the smaller Bricks seem to be admiring the larger poppa bear sized Mantooth. Also, what’s the deal with the other guy? It’s Saturday, I got nothing…

Casa Del Mantooth

I know it might be more than a little nuts but I like to think that this is the kind of place PlaidStallion #1 Brick Mantooth goes home to every night. Halloween Countdown: We’ve got some vintage goodness this week courtesy of fellow blogger and Halloween “countdowner” Erick from Wonderful Wonderblog with this trip back […]

The Infamous Sears 1975 Peek-a-Boo Catalog Controversey

Recently while searching Ebay for catalogs (which I do way too much) I discovered an auction stating it was the “Infamous Sears Peek-A-Boo Catalog” from 1975. Curious, I checked it out and apparently it was pulled because on page 602, you could clearly see a man-part in an underwear ad. Well, I had to have […]

Plaid Stallions Boy’s Clubs

Or the luxury of wearing a white belt with white loafers?You can change all that with a (large) donation to the Plaidstallions Boy’s Clubs or “Brick’s Kids”, your donation will go towards educating a […]
