We Kill You: King Of The Forest Sculpt


King Of The Forest
by WKY

This amazing sculpt is the next in line for monster customizer Justin, akaWKY, and it is coming at you very soon...how soon you ask well according to Justin these are looking to release on Valentines Day because that marks the 1 year anniversary of WKY toys! This beast is 5.5 inches in height and is coming straight out of the forest so expect something mossy and muddy as the first colorway! Check out the WKY website for more pics/info!

A little story behind the King of the Forest:
"Born in the year 1823 into the Royal Deciduous Family, the King was given the name Hickory Bitternut III. His family was responsible for making sure the balance was kept in the sacred peaceful bond between nature, critter and human. In the early 1900's a deadly disease had struck the Bitternut forest forcing all trees and animals to flee so as not to get sick. Hickory was the only survivor of the R.D.F and thus was crowned king, though he never really felt fit for the job.

As years went by, more and more animals started to move to the new kingdom and they all had stories to tell of why they had to flee their home land. One day a chipmunk arrived after traveling hundreds of miles on the back of a fox. He was very sick and died in the branches of Hickory, but not before telling him that it was the humans in their machines that had broken the sacred bond and were the reason for all the disease and suffering. Infuriated by this, the King held a meeting with all the other leaders of the forest to let them know that bond had been broken and humans were no longer to be trusted.

Today, the King still watches over the animals and plants of the forest and keeps the balance of nature in check. He is slowly fighting back at the humans and their machines to make sure that they don't destroy the little bit of forest that is left!"

I am completely amazed at the jump in detail from the rest of the WKY customs that this sculpt has taken on. Justin is definitely pushing the boundries of what his norm is, and it is turning out amazing, and well worth the time and effort put into this product. Keep up the amazing work man, and I look forward to seeing much more from WKY in the near future!
