Exclusive Anar-Qee Custom Mini Qee Series by Matt Anderson

"Time of Death" custom Mini Qee by Matt Anderson
After stumbling across Matt Anderson somewhere online, and working with him on the Toy2R 2011 Preview Party Mini Qee custom show, we were super impressed with his unique, technical, electrified neo-steampunk style (I think I just made up the term neo-steampunk). 
He's always been excited to get more of his work out there, and we are equally excited to see what he makes, so we orchestrated a Tenacious Toys x Matt Anderson exclusive custom series as quickly as possible... and here's what Matt made for us: a 4-piece series using a variety of Toy2R 5-inch Mini Qees as platforms for his unique style of customization! Matt dubbed this series the "Anar-Qee" series. We're just incredibly impressed with the quality of work!

 Matt is sending these customs our way soon. When we get 'em, we'll put them up for sale in our newly created Matt Anderson page on our website. Each one-of-a-kind piece will retail for $225. For now, you can check out all the pictures, including some WIP shots, here
Also make sure you are following Matt on Twitter and Facebook. Soon he's gonna be super famous and you'll get to tell all your toy nerd friends "Oh, yeah, Matt Anderson? Yeah I know him, I've been following his work for 2 years already. Get with it, son."
