Violence Toy Unleashes Monitorr the Gorekeeper Set!

I'm apologizing once more, for being such a ghost around these parts.  I hope again, I don't repeat this line so many times, it spawns into a meme or something.  Trust me, when I say, it's tough to watch so many great reveals and releases span across social media and not rush to the computer to share my opinions.  With so many great products, I wonder if the reason I stall out sometimes with certain new articles is that I wouldn't have much to add besides 'Hey, this is great!'  Maybe I need to feel I'm bringing something new or different to the discussion to really compel the keyboard into my hands, and what I saw today is certainly doing that.

Violence Toy, purveyors of the brutal battle-mutants, The Gorelords, just released something rather interesting:  the keeper of the lords!

As a purist of keshi goodness, I have certainly snubbed my nose to every toy format not adhering to strict and holy guidelines of keshi purity (if this string of words makes even the slightest of sense to you, seek help), be that vinyl, sofubi, plush, or even keshi stretching out of the two-inch range or slug mold casting.   Tons of great toys of many types have found great scorn by yours truly, and honestly, in a different context, this one should too, but Violence Toy innovates just enough to fool a moronic toy collector.

Although not made from traditional keshi materials, Violence Toys' latest release, Monitorr the Gorekeeper, is presented as a vessel and carrying container for a set of Gorelords that come packaged with this disgusting skull.  Twist a hidden compartment on the bottom off, and it's hollow insides are exposed to pack in the rest of your mini uglies.  And it's this little extra bit of consideration, matched with the included set of Muscle flesh tone mini-figures, that has me with a thumbs up.

Storage may not be as integral of an aspect to keshi as other collectibles, where they are rather small and pretty durable to everything, with some exceptions.  I'm sure many use shoe boxes, dusty shelves, two hundred gallon fish tanks, or whatever is necessary to get the job done, but storage, at a small scale has always been an iconic image and theme with the mini-figures.  MUSCLE had their trash cans.  Trash Pack and Grossery Gang mini-figures have their variety of gross vessels.  Pokemon have their balls.  Monster Rancher has their yellow cream cheese containers, but maybe I'm the only one that remembers them.  And let's not forget every gachapon and vending machine toy out there rattling within a plastic capsule.  Now, The Gorelords have their own, and that's an awesome thing.

The first twenty sets of a series of one hundred are released today on the Violence Toy website.  Asking for forty shells plus shipping seems like a pretty nice bargain too, with that price broken across thirteen pieces.  Take a look, within a book, trademarked slogan and all that.

Violence Toy Offers Gorelords Master Sets!

Hey everyone!  Welcome back!  I just have some quick product news, and maybe a little thought on it, so let's get right into it.

Purveyor of the finest mutant and cannibal death-fighters in mini-figure form, Violence Toy is back with a little update on their Gorelords toy line.

They had first released their Gorelords in a three-pack of either a muscle flesh tone or a random selection of the other colors they had available.  While fans and collectors jumped all over these, looking to collect a master set, there was some speculation and some math crunching as to how much it would actually cost to accomplish this at essentially twelve whacks per blister.

Now the wait is over and you can now make your one-and-done purchase and grab a whole master set of your own for $320 plus ship.  For those who haven't jumped on the Gorelords yet, now is a perfect time to grab every character in every colorway without much fuss, but if you have already plopped down money on a good handful of blisters already, this is probably something of an agitation.

Keshi collectors are programmed to buy quick.  We know things sell out very quickly, and if we really want something, we have to be there on day one and grab what we can afford.  It's a risky move, and in this case it sort of reflects that, however it's also a damned if you do damned if you don't scenario for Violence Toy as well, who may see some backlash from introducing this sale after the initial launch.  But what's the right course of action?  Sure, fans wanted it, but how was Violence Toy supposed to know how many?  And further more, how would they know Gorelords would hit with collectors at all?  I feel it might be one of those things where you test the market out first, start small, and react to the needs of our customers.  I think this is a great way to do so.  I just hope it doesn't burn too many people that have already invested a lot in their own master set.

Run For Your Life! Violence Toy's Gorelords Are Live!

One of the most anticipated productions going into this fall season, without a doubt, is the project coming from Violence Toy, and for good reason.  2016 has been a great year, but maybe not so great for purist two inch keshi.  It's been fabulous for resin and mini-figures, but aside from Super7's Masters of the Universe MUSCLE sets coming out at San Diego Comic Con, not much else has represented The Keshi One Percent.

Well, maybe that's about to change.

Teased all over Instagram and toy forums for weeks now, these mutated muscles are now ready and willing to fight to the death in your very own battle arena.  Live on the Violence Toy web-store, you can have your very own roster of vicious cannibals and maniacs to spice up your keshi collection, just in time of All Hallows Eve.

In various sets and various color variants, completionists beware:  a master of these blood babies could cost you more than a couple fingers if you are not joined up with a trading center on a forum yet.  A set of twelve in either muscle-flesh or a mixed color set will run you forty bones, and from the number of different colors there are to master that master set, you're looking to complete that order nine times over.  That could be a hefty pill to swallow for some, but there are certainly harder tasks to complete out there with mini-figures.  For example, look at anything Moose Toys releases, with their super mega ultra rares sometimes only being seen by a couple people per continent.

These guys are such a welcome addition to keshi landscape, providing just that much more excitement and creativity to the community and collectors alike, especially if you're attracted to the radioactive mutant aesthetic of it all.  With the Gorelords being completely without paint, traditional size and packaging, their success rides solely on their artistic value and collectiblity.  If they do in fact succeed, which I feel they certainly have a shot at, could they interest other companies new and old to come back into the keshi fold?  I think that's certainly a possibility.
