D-Lux Unveils "Project Rikishi"

How'd you like to see this character design turn into a 9" soft vinyl figure? Dan Orosco aka D-Lux is looking for exactly that to happen, and maybe we can all be a part of its creation! Rikishi is Japanese for wrestler and will be an 8 to 9 inch tall piece of vinyl with 5 points of articulation. Rikishi is half Sumo wrestler, half mutated monster! And the sculpting will be done by none other than Mr. Walter Jacott aka Chauskoskis. Head on over to Kickstarter.com and see what this is all about!!

"Right now all the sketches are done, and sculpting for the figure will begin after San Diego Comic Con. Once the sculpt is complete, it will head to japan for wax casting. From there it will be made into molds, and cast in Japanese vinyl! After that, each edition will be painted by D-Lux. There may also be some surprise painters that will do small runs as well!"
