Wondering what to get for the hip hop fan on your holiday list, who already has everything (including this, this and this)?
Why not consider picking up the new Madvillain action figure, created by Kid Robot. Or, if your hip hop holiday is more traditional (read: ol skoo!), consider Chuck D & Flavor Flav of Public Enemy. Or, perhaps the late, great Notorious B.I.G. (now incongrously 8.5 inches tall) would fit the bill?
What strikes me most about these figures is their similarities, despite being made by different companies (Kid Robot made the Madvillain figure, as well as figures of Gorillaz, and PE & Biggie were made by Mezco Toyz). Roughly the same size, made in a deliberately chunky style with extra bling, their most notable similarity is probably the disproportionately large hands. Cuz you know what they say about hip hop guys with big hands (they make tiny action figures).
Perhaps some company will make an 8.5 inch tall likeness of The Power for these hip hop heroes to fight...
