Last but not least in the line of production Yoka's set to be released at this years NYCC 2010 via the
MyPlasticHeart booth #2879 for $15 each, is none other than
PHU as he brings his futuristic neo-nuclear designs to this platform toy. The color pallet is not very dynamic as it's grayscale, but what it lacks in color it really makes up in design as this figure looks great!
adFunture did another stellar job on this piece and a huge congrats goes out to PHU for being recognized and getting in on this fierce threesome along with
Mortorbot and
Reactor-88!

We have been dazzled with custom from
Hugh Rose before, but instead of his normal affair we are familiar with, Hugh took a new approach to customizing his latest Munny commission as he dug a little deep into the dark side of his mind to created the "Roadkill Motorcycle Club" custom. This figure is 100% awesome, from the color pallet used to the amazing detailing of line work and textures throughout the entire piece... really cool! This was commissioned by CTU member Matt A. and if your looking for a sick custom, hit up Hugh via
hrose6161@hotmail.co.uk as he is available to do your bidding :-)
Here's his story:"You've heard of the Hell's Angels, but the Roadkill Motorcycle Club are the real thing. Cursed to ride the road where they met their end for all eternity, RMC members have returned from Munny Hell to avenge careless driving... so KEEP YOUR EYES ON THE ROAD!"

Here we go with yet another amazing submission for the upcoming Jouwe show at
Toy Art Gallery on October 2nd, 2010 in Los Angeles! This time from
Jimmy Pickering as he created a rad robot titled "
Broken and Outdated". This piece fills my mind with all kinds of wonderment and really transports me into a video game landscape... what a cool creation, and a great use of found objects! Now I am not sure if the light bulbs actually work, probably not as it would melt the vinyl, but in any case this is one great looking custom and I look forward to seeing it in person!
