Kidrobot Madballs Series 2 – Toyark Photo Shoot

Posted on February 26, 2018 at 6:18 pm by Joe Moore under General Toy News, Random Photo Shoot

Just about a year ago, I went through and did photo shoots for a number of new Madballs from Kidrobot. These includes two sets of blind box Madballs, their 4″ sized Madballs, and their 6″ sized Madballs. Late last year, a special series of horror themed Madballs were released in the 4″ size. Announced last month and quickly released, the new Madballs 4″ Series 2 Assortment features three new takes on the classic toys. In this assortment, you can find Freaky Fullback, Swine Sucker, and Lock Lips.

Toyark sponsor Entertainment Earth sent along the new Madballs for us to check out. After the jump you can check out a gallery and some thoughts on the new releases.

In 2017, we completed more photo shoots than any other year we’ve been live. We shared over 270 Total Collectible and Action Figure Galleries, totaling well over 350 action figures and collectibles.

While I can’t promise that we’ll keep up that blistering pace in 2018, I can promise we’ll continue to bring everyone some fantastic galleries throughout the year. So, if you would like to revisit any of our photo shoots, or feel like you missed a few dozen galleries, you can see the full selection of photo shoots after the jump!
