NYCC 2011: "Bitsumo" the resin Sumo by DaiBot

Another first for me... I was able to meet up with Dai Tran aka DaiBot, the man behind the resin "Bitsumo" figure... and I gotta say this guy is top notch! Not only is he a cool guy, but a fantastic artist as well and his Sumo resin figure turned out awesome! During the convention he had a limited edition of two versions available for purchase, "Original" and "Dark" and are all 100% hand cast in resin by lead toy maker at Mcfarlane Toys, Mike Gulen (pictured above with Dai)... who just so happened to stop by and drop off the larger 8" version of this rad looking figure. Each figure, even the smaller 4" tall versions pack quite a punch with 7 articulated parts and hand tied Mawashis! These are legit little pieces of art and I am sure the remainder of them will be up for grabs online very soon! Hit the jump for more pictures!
