COOL CAPSULES: Bare Bones Skull and Snake

We've already seen one toy from the Bare Bones collection, but as they were so cool, I decided to present a follow-up with this piece I'm calling the ''Skull and Snake,'' which despite what it might sound like, is not a dodgy Goth pub.

COOL CAPSULES: Bare Bones Gargoyle

Another awesome addition to my vending machine toy collection, this Gargoyle came from a machine displaying a (rather childishly) illustrated front-piece declaring it to be ''Pirate Treasure.'' The booty on offer included a wide range of novelties, from fake moustaches to jewelry and pink-haired trolls - at least according to the toys attached to the card.

In reality the machine appeared to have been emptied of these treasures and instead restocked with a new range of toys, which I've since identified as being the Bare Bones line (there's also a wicked-cool glow-in-the-dark variant set!) Although I spotted a few ''gold'' rings in there - presumably left-over from the pirate booty toys - the majority of the capsules contained Bare Bones toys, such as the Gargoyle here.
