We know, we know. The dates have been hard to pin down on the Ipecac releases on our site - though we swear we told everyone it was the first business day of each month (March excluded). So, we thought we’d list them out clearly - just so everyone knows for sure when these little suckers will be on our site.

Finally, huh? We’re very proud to announce that UNKL’s first ever fan-designed figures are on sale NOW in our webstore! You might remember the little Design Your Own UniPo contest that we held this time last year, right? These four figures are the winning designs. Crafted with love by Peter Creten (Belgium), Tummie Design (Netherlands), Scott Rench (Chicago, USA) and Rultron (Spain), and brought to you happily by UNKL. Geez, that was like a 15 month pregnancy or something.
That’s right - UNKL’s making longboards. Well, Boardeli is, they just asked us to design one.With only FOUR of each board, these suckers are in high demand and will cost $200. The UniPoker inspired boards come with their very own UniPoker setd, in case you don’t have one already.These go on sale on March 1 on Boardeli’s site!
We’ve had a lot of people who’ve been asking how to get the Ipecac Series figures from us — so we figured we’d let everyone know here.
Each month, UNKL will release a handful of each figure to the public. And when we say handful, we really mean like 20 or so figures. The figures go live on our website on the first business day of each month at 10 am Pacific Standard Time.
March is an exception to that rule — we’re taking a couple days off. The Isis figure will go on sale on March 5 at 10 am PST.
As for the Ipecac-branded figure and the Tomahawk figure that released in January and February: the answer is no. We don’t have any more. And we haven’t even seen any pop on eBay or the KidRobot forums, which means that people must REALLY like these.
Well, what’s not to like?
Waaaay back in mid-2007, we got word of this funny thing called The Mongol Rally. Basically it’s a race from Hyde Park in London to somewhere in Mongolia, and crazy people from around the world all join together to drive really shitty cars from Point A to Point B. Whoever gets there first wins. And I don’t think they get anything for doing so.
Through a friend of a friend of a friend, we got hooked up with “Mr. Dinosaur” - a Mongol Rally team who happened to need a sponsor. We didn’t have any money (really? weird!), so we offered to help decorate their car with an UNKL logo and a custom SUG. And they went for it.
So here are some photos of a custom SUG making it’s way across the nether-regions of Central Europe. After that the poor guy was stolen by a roving band of Mongolian children. Seriously. 
So there you have it.
The fastest, most reckless of the UniPo bunch zoomed into our office yesterday afternoon:
