Homer Simpson 10" Qee custom by DrilOne
Toy2R continues its custom onslaught with this fantastic 10" Homer Simpson Qee all rusted up by none other than DrilOne! I love how this custom still has the classic Homer look, yet has that vintage/retro/rust look that Dril is know for! You may remember Dril's custom Bart Qee that he did a few years back, and that piece is part of the online Simpsons Qee Gallery. With over 175 original pieces, Toy2R is now proud to add Homer Simpson and welcome customizers of all levels to submit their Custom Simpson Qees to info@toy2rusa.com to be included in the gallery collection.

"Paint A Rainbow" t-shirt up onTilteed
Tilteed has just launched their latest limited edition shirt design by Maxime Archambault aka s3studio called "Paint A Rainbow". As you can see from the artwork this shirt is very character based, and would translate very well into a vinyl/resin figure... any takers? I love the use of stark colors on the character being contrasted against the vivid colors of the paint rainbow he is leaving behind with his roller. Really great design and a rad t-shirt to boot! "Paint A Rainbow" is on sale at Tilteed for $12 until Noon PST on Friday, August 27, at which point it will be gone for good, so go grab one now!

"HOG" custom Bub by Ernesto of the Beast Brothers
Ernesto from The Beast Brothers recently completed a really dope custom DIY Kidrobot Bub figure that he is calling "HOG". This is a highly detailed custom and is a 1-off piece, and although this has already sold... there are already plans for more "HOG" like customs in the works. The thing that really drew my eye to the release of this custom is that Ernesto created an awesome 40 page book that measures 7"x7" which highlights the process of development... and he also included a 6"x6" painting... HOW AWESOME!!! So not only do you get to display the custom toy, but you get a book showing how it was made and a companion painting, artists take note, and if you wanna see more pics hit up the Flickr!
