2Petalrose, the makers of those delightfully steampunk, abstract ‘Boids’ figures, is finally showing off their upcoming ‘S.A.S. Kombat King’ figure, after teasing us to delicately back in early November. The squat, angular little guys with the bulbous heads come equipped for battle, including a raygun and a helmet-slash-gasmask (which looks like it has a fabric strap), [...]

Oh you toy designers, why do you like to tease us so? The U.K.’s 2Petalrose posted a couple teaser shots of an upcoming toy series they have done called the Kombat Kings. What are the Kombat Kings? Who are the Kombat Kings? I have no clue. But don’t dismay, we won’t have to wait [...]
