One of the really cool things about the toy world is that it spans the globe! We are able to see some amazing creations from... and above is a great example! We have posted up some custom 'Eggcore' figures in the past
HERE and releasing this month on June 17th is the first designer production piece of this figure! As a collaboration between
Filter017 and
909Toy they have created a limited edition of only 30 piece of this "Sweet" Eggcore!
Honestly this piece is insane as it has taken over
70 films in the printing process, and each one of those is then roughed up to give it the weathered look... not to mention each production piece is built from
40 parts assembled together, coupled with an awesome wooden box... this piece has it all! With all of that said, and at such a small quantity the price is a little expensive, at $258 each, but in this case you really do get what you pay for! This will be available
HERE on the above mentioned date... one thing that really stands out about this figure is the exposed half, covered half... really intriguing in design and concept... truly unique! What are all your thoughts on this piece, and will you be picking one up?

Beast Brothers... well this Friday, June 10th 2011 - for only 24 Hours - you will have the chance to own one of their production like customs in the form of their
“Calendario Azteca” Sacrificio 8” Dunny for $445. Like mentioned before this piece is 100% custom and is an almost spot on representation of their 3" Dunny that was released in Azteca series 2! The BB sculpted them, had them cast in resin, used Swarovski Crystals for the eyes, covered them in blood, created a special sacrificial knife and included an enlarged bloody heart to go along with this piece! He also comes in a laser engraved wooden box... making it the total and complete package. Don't sleep on this release folks, and be sure to head on over

Brian Colin as he continues to explore his artist medium of sculpture by creating some amazing looking creatures! According to Brian "
It's hard for me to truly capture how excited I am about my show opening next week. First off, it'll be awesome to see eight of my sculptures flanking the walls of the theater. On top of that, I am really stoked to get to see a bunch of friends both old and new." This show titled "The Small Game of Revilo" is going to showcase the continued works of Brian as he takes us along on a journey as viewers into his fantastic world! That being said, if you're in the Atlanta area, please come out and check out his show... and like mentioned above, there will also be a screening of "The Dark Crystal" afterwards!

Just posted up via the
C&D forum is a really nice picture of an upcoming Squadt that has been in the works for quite some time now... in fact if you frequent the forum you have seen just the head shot of this figure in the upper banner for almost a year. This "Frozen" Nozzel Squadt was actually seen in entirety at Rotofugi's '
Medium War' show where either it was the first production piece of Ferg created a custom specific for the show... either way, that piece for said show sold and everyone as collectors can look forward to seeing a full production run of these rad parka wearing, ice blue colored, gun wielding Squadt's in the near future!
