Welcome to Nemori! From Cris Rose and Lunabee



Cris Rose and Lunabee introduce us to the fanciful world of Nemori- a joint creative effort with both artists coming together to share new pieces with a unique character style. Each art release of customs, resin pieces or prints reveals a new part of the world of Nemori.

So far the world of Nemori has opened up 2 families of creatures; the Brightfield Bunnies and Burntwood Bears. Each miniature series on 3" Dunny or Micro Munny platform is hand-painted 1/1 with a unique character design and name. Find your little piece of Nemori to take home here.

    Product of the Day - Thunderpanda Lemi 3-inch vinyl mini figure (Preorder)


    Lemi the Space Wanderer vinyl figure is a limited edition amulet for every wandering soul, every avid traveler and for every space wanderer out there. Lemi will always be your guide, spirits and connection to the world. Designed by Thunderpanda and produced by The Design Mall, Lemi vinyl is made with love.

    The TDM x PO! series is made up of figures from the friends and associates of The Design Mall, plus a number of figures by Patricio Oliver (PO!).


    The 3-inch vinyl Lemi the Space Wanderer figure was produced by The Design Mall to be a part of their TDM x PO! blind box mini figure series. As with any blind box series, the manufacturer always has a small number of each particular figure in excess which they might sell individually, or send to the artists. In this case, our strong relationship with Eric from Thunderpanda allowed us to purchase the 30 Lemi figures that didn't go into blind box case packs. We've had a number of Lemi products before this so we naturally jumped at the chance to carry these.


    The vinyl pieces stand approximateley 3 inches tall and were designed by Eric from Thunderpanda, produced by The Design Mall. Tenacious Toys are the EXCLUSIVE U.S. dealer for individual Lemi 3-inch figures. You can preorder them now for $12.95 a piece at the Tenacious Toys online store.

    Monster Magnets and Plaques by Vanessa Ramirez

    MONSTER PLAQUE - BROWN
    Monsters are great and can have the same emotions as people. At least that is what Artist Vanessa Ramirez is obsessed with showing, as she believes that "Monsters are People Too". Even though Vanessa has been extremely busy with her day job, she has plenty of goodies still available in her online store. Vanessa has a couple of resin Monster Plaques, among other things, that are going for $40 plus shipping. Each hand painted resin plaque measures around 3" in diameter and 1" thick. Only Brown and Green are left from her initial offering of 6 plaques. The brown one looks a bit like Chewbacca.



    MONSTER PLAQUE - GREEN


    To go along with the Monster theme, Vanessa also has a few of her Monster Magnets for sale, at $10 plus shipping each. These hand painted little Monster heads each have different emotions and colors, with the green monster showing a bit of an attitude. The facial expressions on all of Vanessa's Monsters, sculpted and drawn, are fantastic. Keep in mind that all of these resin monsters, plaques and magnets, were created off of original sculpts by Vanessa.

    For the time being, Vanessa's store is still full of goodies, so why not pick up a magnet or 2, or maybe even a plaque.

    The gasmen and Cobra Trooper by Necro Monkey

    Latest works from Necro Monkey...

    They are dirty! They are crazy! They are the gasmen!


    4 piece blindbox series
    Micro munny platform with clay and a little hardware store touch here and there
    Acrylic painted, ink washed, and kissed with a little glow in the dark spray paint (more on that in a second)
    Each piece comes in a little wooden box with a bottle of “condense” and an extra treat
    Dropping August 24th at 10am Pacific at http://necromonkey.storeenvy.com

    The gasmen are an odd bunch that work glow fields, but don’t let the name fool you.  The glow fields are actually clouded with midnight black smoke and ash that spews from vents in the ground.  The black ash covers everything which is why gasmen are always dirty and many chose to shave off their hair, but in that smoke and ash is the glow which becomes “condense”.  The gasmen harvest the ash and smoke from the glow fields and, through a process they keep hidden, produce “condense”.  This fluid is greenish yellow and uses are still being discovered for the stuff from lighting to power to even the common belief of medicinal.  What is known is that long time exposure in the glow fields does tend to cause gasmen and their equipment to glow in the dark a little whether that is bad or not is still unknown.

    If successful, these may be the first characters in an alternate world.

    Necro Monkey has also this custom micro munny available in his store...

    New Clothing and Resin Figures from The Mark Ultra



    Resin bootlegger The Mark Ultra has some new releases coming out Thursday, August 15th, at 10PM EST. First up is the next colorway of his popular Intruder figure, this time in emerald green. Retailing for $18 each plus shipping, like most of Mark Ultra's releases, these figures will likely come individually poly-bagged with a header card.

    The Mark Ultra's next release features the return of The Mark Ultra's MUSCLE inspired mini figures, U.L.T.R.A figures. At $15 plus shipping for each flesh colored set, these awesome mini figures will be a great addition to any mini fig collection.
    Accompanying the resin figures and not to be limited to releasing just cool toys, The Mark Ultra has the first release of a new clothing line, which includes a snap-back hat and some cool t-shirts. Each piece of clothing will cost $20 plus shipping.


    Again, all of these goodies are going to be available in The Mark Ultra's shop at 10PM EST on Thursday August 15th. As most of The Mark Ultra's releases tend to sell out and while the clothing will probably not be too limited, one can be certain that the resin figures will be limited to a small quantity. Those wishing to pick up one of the resin releases should set his/her alarm, while also getting some F5-fu practice in.

    Brightfield Bunnies Custom Dunny Series by Nemori


     
    For those who don't already know, Nemori is a 50/50 artistic joint venture by UK artists Lunabee and Cris Rose. A stand alone brand, Nemori creates "a new world of magic, mystery and adventure". With each release, a little more of the Nemori story gets revealed. The latest release is a custom dunny series, titled Brightfield Bunnies. The heads are resin casts of an original sculpt, while the bodies are 3" dunny bodies. Each figure is hand painted making each of them a 1 of 1 original piece of art. Based on the teaser pics, the series is going to consist of 5 pieces, with each figure having a unique color scheme, outfit and overall "feel". Very clean paint execution overall and production level resin casts.

    No word on an official release time or price, but expect the series to be available later this week.
    **UPDATE**
    These Brightfield Bunnies are set to release on Thursday August 15th at 6PM London time, or 10AM PST. They are going to sell for $80 plus shipping from the UK.
