Joey Potts' SOLEM "Green Apple" figure for SDCC from Rotofugi & Squibbles Ink
Oh shoot... Rotofugi is bringin back all the goods that they teased us with last SDCC and Joey Potts SOLEM (Single Optic Lake Effect Monster) is set to make his official painted debut! Standing at around 5.75" tall and sculpted by Chris Ryniak for the Lake Monsters series, this crazy looking figure reminds me of a creature from "Where the Wild Things Are"... creepy, hairy and one LARGE eye, love it! The version above, nicknamed "Green Apple", will be exclusive to SDCC 2011, and was painted up by by Joe Somers of Squibbles Ink and Kirby Kerr of Rotofugi! Look for this at the Rotofugi booth #4763 all days of the con while supplies last for $60 a pop!

"Dead-Capt.Smiley" custom by JC Rivera
Not wasting anytime at all customizing MAD's new 'Biker Zombie' Dunny from the 2011 series, artist JC Rivera put his own touches on this already cool figure and made it his own! Titled "Dead-Capt.Smiley" you can see JC's style shine through... and it's rad because if you look at the majority of JC's customs they all have their tongue sticking out... which this figure already comes with! This bad boy is available in his online store HERE right now, so go grab it now quick... it's a killer deal!
