Kidrobot just released the third collection in their FatCap series, a collection of vinyl toys customized by graffiti artists and illustrators from around the world. The name comes from their resemblance to a spray nozzle and the figures also include an inner rattle that mimics the sound of an aerosol can.

I wasn’t previously a fan of FatCaps, but this new series definitely steps it up a level. 14 different artists helped design these guys including Julie West, Sket One, Flying Förtress and Kronk.

Get your FatCap fix at Jinxed Philly, located in the Piazza right below 2nd and Girard.

Please join us(Jinxed) in welcoming Huck Gee to Philadelphia! He will be here at Jinxed signing the white cover edition of his book, ‘The Art of Huck Gee’ from 6-8p.m.. Books will be available for sale. (and we’ll have snacks…’)

For those of you not familiar, Mr. Gee is the premier designer of vinyl toys today.
A native of the UK, Huck Gee moved to San Francisco in the early 90s to pursue the venerable life of a b-boy & artist. Starting off as a graphic designer by day and a graffiti writer and break beater by night, He later honed his skills as an illustrator delving into the alluring world of Japanese and Hong Kong pop art. Huck has released numerous limited edition toys through Kidrobot, including some of the most exclusive and sought after Dunnys to date. In the winter of 2007, his Hello My Name Is 8-inch Dunny was accepted into the permanent collection of the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) in NYC. He currently runs a studio in San Francisco, and when he is not busy planning world domination, he spends his time chasing skirts and pretending to be a racecar driver.
Most recently Huck collaborated with Ken Block and DC Shoes for Ken’s Monster World Rally Team WRC logo entitled “Blockhead”. Coinciding with this project were several limited edition shoe and clothing runs.
We’re thrilled Huck chose us to be a stop on his U.,S. book tour. Stop by for a beverage and to say hello!

Delaware’s Plow United began their relatively short career in 1992 as simply Plow. Within a few years, they received both an invitation to make records for West Chester, Pennsylvania’s Creep Records and a letter from a Baltimore-based band of the same name. The letter claimed rights to the name, and asked the Pennsylvania band to please find a new moniker. It was an offer they couldn’t refuse. By the release of 1995’s Plow United (Creep), Plow United had settled on a permanent name, and began touring with the likes of Good Riddance, Bouncing Souls, and At the Drive-In.

By 1997, the band turned down offers from major labels, and went on an indefinite hiatus. As the 2000s approached, Plow United showed no signs of reforming. However, this didn’t stop a few labels from cashing in releasing both new and old Plow material. In 1998 Creep Records released a third LP, Narcolepsy, which stood as an about face regarding the band’s earlier lighter, pop-punk approach. In 2000 Coolidge Records released a compilation of non-album tracks and other loose ends. In 2005, Blackout Records released a re-mastered version of 1996’s Goodnight Sellout with the self-titled record added on as a bonus. The Coolidge Records reissue did little else other than raise the ire of the band members who felt that the re-released record’s tone and packaging lacked inspiration. The band would have to wait until 2011, after having come to an agreement with Creep Record execs, to regain control over their material.  After nearly 15 years of inactivity, Plow United emerged from—well, let’s be honest, complete fucking obscurity— to play Philadelphia’s Riot Fest on Penn’s Landing in the early fall of 2011. The event was accompanied by the release of a double album called Sleepwalk: A Retrospective (Paper + Plastic Records).

Out of Print Magazine is a digital lifestyle magazine based in New York City, Philadelphia, and Chicago that focuses on 4 main categories; fashion, music, bikes, and art. We are currently looking for contributors for all categories to offer news, interviews, reviews, and cover events. Being that we are a new magazine, we cannot afford to pay you, I know it sucks…BUT we can offer you a few other things. First of all it’s a forum to get your name out there and get yourself broadcast to a wider audience. Secondly, if you contribute with us on a regular basis and we like your work, as soon as we can afford to pay you, you will be the first ones to get whatever loot we can throw your way. There are also certain perks that come along with writing for our magazine like free stuff, (clothes, music, samples, etc…) as well as free events, of course you’re not going to be paying for events you are covering. We are also embarking on a new endeavor, which is a print issue. Again, if you contribute to the online mag, we are probably going to want you to contribute to the print mag as well, and that is another credit for you and of course gets your writing out there to more people.
