Aggronautix is releasing a limited-edition figure of punk rock legends the Dwarves (1000 numbered). This unique double "Throbblehead" figure stands at 5 1/2 inches tall, is made of a lightweight polyresin, and will be displayed in a tri-windowed box. Here Blag the Ripper and HeWhoCanNotBeNamed are portrayed dominating the stage and are accurately sculpted right down to the lucha libre mask, bondage wear, and skull boner buckle.
The figure will be distributed by MVD Entertainment Group - a company specializing in music-related distribution since 1986 - and DKE Toys - a wholesale distributor of urban / vinyl / designer art / objects / toys / figurines.
The Dwarves are the third punk personality to be polyresinated by Aggronautix. In May of 2009, both a Tesco Vee figure (limited to 1000) and a highly popular GG Allin "1991" figure (limited to 2000 and nearly sold out) were released with the company's inception.
Today, Aggronautix continues the tradition of molding trouble-making punk rockers with the Dwarves. As a purveyor of pure carnage and fun, Blag Dahlia was instantly amused by the idea of becoming an effigy.
"Me and HeWhoCanNotBeNamed are the best looking men in show business," said Blag. "It was only fitting that we be immortalized in space age polymer to frighten parents and tittilate teenage girls everywhere!"
The fun continues with the "Dwarves PSA", an animated short produced by Postage, Inc. for Aggronautix:

Art Director Joseph Krzemienski, Executive
Producer Allen Clements and world renowned
Comic Book Artist Jeff McComsey worked
exclusively on "Dwarves PSA". Clements comments:
"This project was kind of a throwback. Coming from a traditional mindset, we had to develop new techniques to deliver an old style... Something reminiscent of 80s / 90s Saturday morning cartoons. We immediately thought of the GI Joe PSAs at the end of each program, and teaching right from wrong from the wise words of a hero. How many punk rock kids have heroes? Who are they?"
All Aggronautix figures are now available for
purchase on www.aggronautix.com or www.seeofsound.com and will also be available at many independent retailers, comic shops, tattoo parlors, and Walmart (just kidding).
