POST IT SHOW 8 presented by GIANT ROBOT

by

POST-IT SHOW 8 is going to be opening at the Giant Robot Gallery in Los Angeles December 8. Running until December 16th, this one week show is going to have over 2000 Post-Its featuring over 260 artists. Each piece is going to sell for only $25 cash and carry, on a first come, first serve basis. I imagine that this means you take home whatever you purchase. It is also likely, that a patron will only be allowed a max of 1 Post-It per artist, to allow sharing, with no limit on the number of Post-Its purchased. This will allow more people to enjoy all the artists work. A few teasers are posted below.

Sculpted Ghost Girl on Post-It by  J-Ryu

As the show approaches closer, teasers are sure to continue to be shown throughout the week. Be sure to head on over to the Giant Robot Gallery early on December 8th, if you want a better chance at picking up a Post-It by one or more of your favorite artists.

"Atlantean Relic, Circa ???" by DeeTen

by
The latest custom BODE BROAD from DeeTen. Seems that he is on fire with all these amazing custom lately!!!





"Atlantean Relic, Circa ???"
During the Expedition of 1886 into the parallel universe our explorers were led on a tour of their Thirteen Great Cities. One of these cities was Titan, the famed underwater city. Located in the center of the largest ocean Titan is one the hardest cities to reach aside from the floating city, New Alexandria.  This Atlantean Relic, along with numerous similar pieces, was discovered submerged near the outer reaches of Titans border. Our explorers were shocked to discover the city of Atlantis had existed in this alternate reality as well as their own. As we shared our stories of Atlantis with theirs there were many similarities. The most prominent being both vanished and no longer exists. Titan has been excavating underwater sites for years trying to find the possible location of the ancient city. The most plausible location brought on the discovery of these relics. Thousands of these female statues have been recovered in one extremely large area and all on cliff edges. When the seafloor was mapped with all their locations it formed a circular outline roughly the size of a large city surrounding a crater. When these were gathered some were damaged, revealing machinery inside their bodies. After examination, the machinery was similar to their modern day technologies. The statue however dated thousands of years earlier. This has led them to believe Atlantis was the First Great City from which all other cities followed. The use of a mechanical statue seems useless; perhaps they were an ancient form of sensor? Or perhaps a silly luxury? Their circular formation around the crater brought upon many conspiracy rumors as well. Many questions arose during the expedition's stop at the Underwater City of Titan.

First Melt by Jon Walsh

by
An excellent use for this Ryniak Dunny...
 

 
His name is First Melt. A 3" Dunny that was brought to life with the magic powers of children's laughter. Unfortunately for this guy he is suffering the same fate as the recent snow fall. Not even as day later he is melting, the first melt of the season. First Melt is now available for $50 shipped in the US. Email me at walshjt21@gmail.com if interested.

Glyos Council Of Travelers Dropping on 12/12/12

by
The Council of Travelers
It's hard to believe that the Glyos line of compatible action figures has been around for over 5 years, and that there are now dozens of other companies and artists producing this wonderful stuff in PVC, vinyl and resin. It's been a long strange trip already, but the folks at Onell Design never cease to keep it fresh and interesting, with new colorways and figures appearing near monthly and selling like gangbusters.

Syclodoc
The next drop night is scheduled for 12/12/12, at 9:30 EST. That was pushed back two weeks from the original date of 11/30, because of shipping problems from the factory in China. This is a big one though, because alongside new colors for almost every figure, fans will see the debut of the Syclodoc, a new head sculpt for their vinyl Armodoc figure (seen above). It will also come with a spare original Armodoc head, for purists or those who would display both.

Phase Defender
Another great aspect to this drop is the number of contained builds which will be available. These, like the Phase Defender here, are made up using every piece from a number of different figures and/or accessory packs, custom assembled by the Onell team and generally featuring unique paint applications for those parts.

To make a long story short, Onell Design does it right with the Glyos toys. If for some reason you've been living under a stone, or if it's been a couple years since you looked closely at them, this drop is just the right time to jump on board. And if you've already got the bug like me, I know I'll see you there on 12/12/12!

OsirisOrion Molten Lava & Sewer Sludge 3" Resin Dunnys - Preorder Now Open!

by

OsirisOrion is now taking preorders on these handcast and handpainted resin Dunnys. They are available singly in either of these colorways for $60 each or you can save by ordering a pair for $100.

Each figure will be signed and numbered, but the great news doesn't stop there. The sculpt has not yet been named, so everyone who orders one will get a chance to name it when they order, and one winner will be picked to receive a free 8" Molten Lava or Sewer Sludge Dunny, their choice!

Preorder here before December 7th, 11PM EST.

Whisper themed Mini Munnys by RSIN

by
It looks like RSIN is going to be releasing six Whisper themed mini munnys on his store later today. RSIN has been on fire recently, with his recent Kidrobot production Dunny released at NYCC, and it doesn't look like he is going to slow anytime soon.


The color and detail on these mini munnys are amazing. Tentatively priced at $115 shipped in the US and $125 outside, plus any type of paypal fees. With no mention of a time for release, other than when he wakes up, you may want to follow RSIN in all the social media outlets, for any chance at picking up one of these customs. While you're at it, check out the other customs RSIN has up on his store. Be sure to leave a note that I sent you and get extra air in the shipping box. You are welcome!

Two Figures of the Sucklord Available on The Suckstore!

by
Keeping the collab theme going, following the Super Suck-up at DCON, the Sucklord released two figures of himself on The Super Suckstore early today! The first figure is a sofubi figure that has been hand painted by the Sucklord himself. The figure is a finger puppet that is a part of a set of five being produced by Fig Lab. I'm actually surprised that the Sucklord didn't make a resin copy of this figure to sell, instead of the Sofubi Japanese vinyl. It's a cool little figure that is priced at $60 plus shipping, limited to 20 pieces.




SUCKLORD SUPER DEFORMED/ JADE EMPEROR
Price: $60
Quantity Made: 20
Description: The first official Suckadelic "SOFUBI" figure! Sculpted by  Paul Kaiju and produced in Japan by Fig-Lab for the FINGER-FIVE, an exclusive set of finger Puppets by the "Top" Artists in the Game. Hand painted by the Actual Sucklord. 2.5" tall. Comes loose, 20 piece edition.

The Wolf Rider Print by Huck Gee

by
Master customizer and artist Huck Gee released his latest print, titled "The Wolf Rider". An awesome large print, with great lighter coloer and imagery. With the rider looking back towards the viewer, the piece evokes a type of "are you ready?" feel, speaking for myself of course. This piece will look awesome with a small border dark frame.



"Beneath the masks lie expert warriors, handpicked and rigorously tested by General Shirokuri himself. The wolves they ride are massive, fearsome, wintery beasts with minds as sharp as their claws and teeth. The bond is a lifelong commitment, paired when the wolf is still a suckling pup. They spend the rest of their days together. Eating, training, sleeping, the two become one. There is no distinction between beast and rider once joined in battle, communicating through a complex system of touches, motions and whispers, allowing them to be as effective in the roar of a battlefield as when prowling an enemy on padded paws in a hushed forest." - Chapters of the North, Volume III - Mahotsukai Hoohige

Each is printed on fine art watercolor paper (225gs), 20″x9″ (22″x11″), signed, numbered and gold embossed. Limited edition run of 100 prints,


The Limited edition print is priced at $65 plus shipping, and for you lucky Californians, add tax as well. Something to consider, if you are going to pull the trigger on this print, is to save on shipping by purchasing more prints and/or swag. One of Huck Gee's older prints is actually still up, Sgt. Hicks "R&R" Print, also priced at $65, as well as some $30 Chardmonster prints.

Only time will tell if a version of the Wolf Rider will be Huck's next limited custom. I can't wait to find out.

The Incredible Monk by Sucklord for Art for Tibet Auction

by
The one and only Sucklord recently created a resin figure on card, titled "The Incredible Monk". Complete with a cloth draped Lou Ferrigno Incredible Hulk on the card. The orange Hulk-type figure features the notable Sucklord helmet in gold and maroon colored pants, similar to the color scheme that Tibetan monks wear. The figure was created for the annual charity auction Art for Tibet. The Auction features over 50 different artists who have all donated to this art auction which benefits the group Students for a Free Tibet. Sucklord donated 5 "Incredible Monk" figures, that are up for auction now.

The Incredible Monk by Sucklord - Front

Some important info about the auction:

Art for Tibet is a hybrid auction that combines an in-gallery silent auction with an online auction. You don't need to be at the Gallery to support Tibet and bring home a fantastic work of art!
HOW IT WORKS
All artwork is now available for online bidding, which will close promptly at 3pm EST on Saturday December 1st. The highest online bids will be entered onto bid sheets at the gallery and will serve as the opening bid amount. Bidding at the gallery will start at 6pm on the day of the event and end promptly at 9pm. If the reserve price is met on an auction lot, it will be sold to the highest bidder. If the reserve is not met, the piece will be placed back online for one additional week of bidding.
If you are bidding online and cannot be in New York to guarantee you are able to place your highest possible bid at the last moment, we do offer a free concierge bidding service so that you don't lose out on your favorite piece. Download the concierge Bid Form.

BIDDER REGISTRATION
You must register for a Bider ID number in order to place a bid. There are two ways to do this. You can register online, which will allow you to place online bids AND in-person bids, or you can register in person at the event on December 1st, which will allow you to bid in-person only. In both cases, registration is free. 

Keep in mind that the online bidding portion of the Art Auction is set to end promptly at 3pm EST on December 1st. The highest bid for each piece is going to be used as the opening bid for the live Silent Auction being held at the Tibet House in New York City, from 6-9PM. So, if you are not going to be in the New York area on December 1st, you need to follow important instructions and download the concierge Bid Form

To start bidding on one of these awesome pieces, head on over to the Art for Tibet auction site here. You will find Sucklords pieces under lots #462-466. At the time of this post, the current bids ranged from $135 to $250. While browsing around, you may also want to bid on other cool art pieces from artists all around the world.

Angry Woebots Custom Dunnys and MADL

by
It looks like Aaron Martin, Angry Woebots, has had some late nights laying some paint and creating a bunch of very cool one-offs. Aaron has already released a couple of 3 inch dunnys and some mini Teddy Troops, which already sold out. His next round of custom one-offs include four "Shadow Friend" 3 inch dunnys. This is definitely creating more excitement with collectors, especially with Aaron's much anticipated Kidrobot 8" production Dunny releasing December 6th, also titled "Shadow Friend".

The Mono-tone Dunnys are going to sell for $150 each plus shipping, here. All of which are awesome and would make a great addition to any collection.

Clockwise from upper left: "Spacer", "Silence", "Sneaks", "Alert"

Aaron is also putting up a sick custom MADL, which is going to sell for $300, here. My guess is that it's a 5" MADL. Custom MADLs don't come up very often and Angry Woebots custom MADLs are even more rare.


All the pieces are expected to be released at 12pm PST. For those of you who are keen on picking up one of Aaron's customs, you better get your favorite loaded up and F5 button ready. Since Aaron doesn't create custom Dunnys often, I'm sure the few that he is releasing is already being eyed by dozens of collectors worldwide. These customs are going to go quick, making a few collectors very happy and many left with nothing but hoping for another release. We will have to wait and see if Aaron is going to do another set of customs.

If you're in the San Francisco or LA area next week, be sure to hit up the Kidrobot signing and Dunny release. Aaron is going to be signing at both stores: LA on December 5th, from 6-8 PM for a pre-release and San Francisco on December 6th, from 6-8PM also. Check out the info here.

Black will take no other hue.

OUTSMART Originals latest limited edition T-Shirt release by Sergio Mancini, titled "The Black T-Shirt", is available now through December 3rd, or when 200 shirts are sold(whichever comes first). This is the fourth limited edition T-Shirt release by outsmART Originals and based on the list of artists working with outsmART Originals, this won't be the last. Previous T-Shirts were designed by Jon-Paul Kaiser, Rsin, and Pocket Wookie. If you missed out on a previous design, you're out of luck because after each pre-order, the design will never be produced again. So don't miss out and pick up one or two of these awesome shirts for yourself or as a gift for the holidays.

From the outsmART Originals site:

The Black T-shirt by Sergio Mancini is available for pre-order from November 27th through December 3rdexclusively at www.outsmartoriginals.com. Limited to only 200 shirts, this original design will be screen printed on 100% cotton American Apparel Fine Jersey t-shirts and is available in a variety of sizes for both women and men (up to 3XL).

Bringing collectors exceptional designs by exceptional artists – wearable art for the art-official intelligent – that’s outsmART originals

Having purchased several different brands of limited edition T-shirts myself, the $25 price tag is pretty good. The current and previous designs have been outstanding representations of each individual artist. I personally don't like the quality of American Apparel shirts, however, the great designs make each outsmART Originals T-shirt worth getting. Keep in mind that each design is released for a limited amount of time and/or quantity, so pick up one while you can or regret that decision later.

Motorbot's Scrap Heap - The best junk at even better prices!

by

The unstoppable Motor Bot is so busy turning up new sculpts and resin casts, it's no wonder he's sitting on a big old pile of test shots and miscasts, with everything from air bubbles to bad seems stopping them from cutting it as regular releases. This is excellent news for completest collectors and customizers though, because he is offering these up in the Deadbear shop for just $5 each while supplies last.


This enthusiastic fan bought 3 without blinking - Motor Bot is always putting out new sculpts in very limited numbers and rarely releases blank editions, so customizers don't have much opportunity to amass figures for their own projects. Hopefully all of you artists out there will take advantage of this deal and release a slew of great new customs!

Shoakuma Dunny Series by Artmymind

by
The dynamic duo who make up Artmymind, Guillaume and Julia Lachambre, have just released their newsletter which contains amazing news for any collector wanting to own one of their fantastic custom pieces, or even expand his/her collection. The "Shoakuma Dunny series" is going to be an open edition of two separate colors. With amazing detail and colors, this Dunny series release is just amazing.
  
The following info is taken from Artmymind's Newsletter, which you should subscribe to, if you don't already:
 


Shoakuma Dunny series

They are finally here! Artmymind's new Dunny series is ready to be unleashed over the world and trust us when we say that these little demons shouldn't be taken too lightly. Do not be fooled by their cuteness, because they bite pretty bad.

"Born from the twisted energy of the underworld, the Shoakuma is easily the most underestimated creature that can be met among the thousand fangs minions. Small in size, this little demon overcompensate his lack of strength by a voracious appetite and the habit to hang around by hundred of thousand of his siblings."

When we created Artmymind, we promise ourselves that we would always do our best to make our art available to the most and not only focus on very limited or exclusive releases. The Shoakuma series is our effort to make this happen and we hope that you will all enjoy what we came up with.

Available in two open run editions and a third mystery one limited to only 10 pieces that will be revealed before the release via our social sites. They will all be available on November 27Th at 11pm GMT for $79 and $89 +s/h in our online Store and we will keep the run open for exactly a week after the release. Please allow 2 to 3 weeks before shipping for each figure to be numbered and the artist's cards produced.


A note to everyone waiting for a piece from us. Customs are particularly busy at this time of the year so if you still didn't receive your parcel, please be patient as it is being processed at the moment. Thank you for your patience and support that allow us to continue to create more of these bad boys.


Thanks,

Julia & Guillaume



With most Artmymind releases, the limited number editions tend to sellout within seconds of going live. This open edition release will give collectors from 11PM GMT November 27th to 11PM GMT December 4th to snag one or more of these pieces. At $79 plus shipping, I think this is a good deal for one of Artmyminds exquisite customs. As with previous open editions, I'm sure Guillaume and Julia will have a lot of work ahead of them to fill all the orders that is sure to go their way. Also, a 3rd colorway has yet to be revealed, so make sure to follow Artmymind in all social media formats to get a glimpse of it.
