Bif Bang Pow!'s stuff is in 'Stuff'!!

Image
Hello everyone, Lenzi back again, with an exciting discovery. Seems the folks over at 'Stuff' magazine, (which, like me, I'm sure you just pick up for the fantastic articles) have gone and done what all intelligent and well read achievers do: they got on the Bif Bang Pow! train. Once again, Walter and the Dude (or El Duderino, if you're not into the whole brevity thing) have placed themselves on a list, the Hit List in the August issue of 'Stuff', to be exact. The editors have even managed to include a nice shot of Cynthia's dog (most likely not, in fact, a Pomeranian as previously stated elsewhere) over Walter's shoulder. So look for it at all good newsstands now, with the lovely Katharine McPhee on the cover. I don't know about you, but I can't wait to get my mitts on that pair. Wait, I meant the figures!! Come on!

Death, Taxes, and Unchecked Aggression

Image
Well, the Bif Bang Pow! love fest keeps rolling on. As if a nod of approval from New York magazine wasn't enough, our Urban Achiever Vinyl Dude and Walter have just been featured in the July/August issue of Death + Taxes magazine! We're number 2 on their list of 'Toys of Summer', and once again we're in good company with an unbreakable flask and a six pack of Newcastle. Hmmm, wonder if they're trying to tell us something....Anyway, run out and get your copy and be like the rest of the cool kids. It's a great magazine, and obviously it's editors have exceptional taste.

Lebowski takes Manhattan

Lenzi here again, with a bit more info for the masses. Now I don't want this blog to turn into 'Stan's Soapbox' or anything, but there's a little bit of Lebowski Buzz that's occured recently that we here at BBP have been too modest to mention. But gosh darnit, I think it's so flippin' cool that I can't contain myself any longer. In addition to the numerous websites, action figure magazines and comic publications that have been spreading the gospel of Bif Bang Pow! and it's two fantastic first properties in recent months, there's one notable publication that has put us on a map of a different kind. In the May 14th issue of New York Magazine, The Big Lebowski action figures made it onto their Approval Matrix, in the LOWBROW: BRILLIANT section, natch. And we here at BBP are bursting with pride. The Dude making it into the same category as the Sandman, Elliot Smith and 'Heroes'? I'd say, without hesitation, that we've definitely a...
