Paint Class with Monster Kolor Studios

by
Paint classes are always fun, whether you are a master painter or just starting to play around with DIY vinyl. Being able to hang out with people who share the same interest makes for a great time. Monster Kolor Studios in Middleboro, MA offers a wide array of paints and ways to apply them. On September 27th from 12pm to 5pm, Monster Kolor Studios will be hosting a Paint Class to show students how to use Monster Kolor paints to paint a Max Toy Co Eyezon. One of the previous classes offered by Monster Kolor involved a lot of air brushing, from techniques to set-up and breakdown. Class spots cost $120 each with a limited number of spots and are available on a first come, first served basis. Everything is included in the price of the class and students are more then welcome to bring any other projects to be painted during the class. Something to note, the toy being provided will only be available during this class.

For more info, be sure to contact the people over at Monster Kolor Studios.

Monster Kolor Custom Show & Pinstriping Demo at PIQ: Photo Roundup

by
 Our Saturday afternoon custom show opening at PIQ in Grand Central Terminal was really fun and brought out a big crowd of both locals and some out-of-towners! Matt Walker and MCA drove down from Boston to demo the Monster Kolor products by way of live pinstriping and customizing.

All pieces in this show were painted in Monster Kolor paint- you can pick up your own MK paint products here in their shop. Roderick from Toymasters Video Magazine showed up and conducted some interviews. Really fun show. Thanks to everyone who came out and showed up. All pieces from this show which do not sell in-store at PIQ will come back to our warehouse and go up for sale on our website in about 3 weeks. For the time being, if you are passing through Grand Central over the next few weeks, please do walk into the Shuttle Passage and go check out these pieces in PIQ. Take pics and tweet! Tag us @tenacioustoys and @monsterkolor and we will RT!

For 100+ pics of this show, click here!

By the way, PIQ now has Monster Kolor paint markers (same ones used by MCA in his demo) in-store to purchase, in case you're local and you want to take a crack at customizing your own toy!

Plaseebo Dead Ben for Monster Kolor

by


"DEAD BEN"
                                                                                                       Copyright Bob Conge 2010

While a gravesite in the burial grounds of Philadelphia's Christ Church is marked "Benjamin Franklin 1790", he does not lie beneath that soil or any other for that matter.

This great American founding father, author, political theorist, statesman, and inventor was a fine scientist as well.
It was Franklin's research of lightning and electrical fluid in combination with his experiments in refrigeration and heat conductivity that led to his quest for immortality.

In 1773, when Franklin's work had moved from printing to science and politics, he corresponded with a French scientist on the subject of preserving the dead for later revival by more advanced scientific methods, writing: "I should prefer to an ordinary death, being immersed with a few friends in a cask of Madeira, until that time, then to be recalled to life by the solar warmth of my dear country."

He had arranged with the astronomer David Rittenhouse for certain instructions to be carried out in secret upon his death. Ben's body was to be exhumed  from the grave on the very night of his burial and taken to his laboratory where he had prepared months earlier for the event. The gruesome task before his friend would require the skills of an experienced surgeon who he had arranged to meet at midnight. Yellow fingers of candle light moved across the black walls as Ben's head was relieved of the burden of his heavy and lifeless body. The skull was then sealed like a glass jar and filled with alcohol to preserve and float the pinkish grey asset Ben wished to send beyond death into an unknown future. His head was then installed in an mechanical devise Ben had constructed to hide in plain sight, a marvelous clockwork automaton in his own likeness. Ben had built the automaton some five years earlier and it had become a fixture in his home that entertained all visitors with its ability to write "A penny saved is a penny earned" on a sheet of paper and then sign Ben's name to it. The better part of Ben continued to reside unnoticed inside the automaton as it preformed for many years before its gears froze up and refused to write another word.

Some time in the mid nineteenth century a picker purchased the now somewhat tattered automaton along with some old furniture and silverware from the attic of a decedent of Ben.

The whereabouts of the automaton remained unknown for the next one and a half centuries. In 2004 Matt Walker stumbled across the machine in a cold storage sub-basement of an estate sale on the Old Kings Highway in East Sandwich Mass. Matt was intrigued and purchased the dusty old thing.

Back in his studio, looking over the mechanism inside the automaton, Matt realized it would require a specialist to give his find a much needed facelift. The next day he shipped the piece to Plaseebo Custom in Springwater New York for evaluation.

Bob opened the box at Plaseebo with great anticipation, he loves creepy. But what was found inside the automaton was beyond imagination, a hand written letter signed by Benjamin Franklin, explaining the two hundred year old secret. Indeed, beneath the faded clay face lie the skull of Ben with his brain still floating inside. Totally freaked and enthralled Bob flaked off the cracked clay revealing the skull beneath to verify the seemingly impossible story. He immediately set to work on completing Ben's long unfulfilled plan to cheat death.
The rebuilding and reanimation progressed at breakneck speed over the next two months of sleepless nights. Utilizing all the technological advances that were mere figments of creative wishful thinking in Ben's time, enabled the Plaseebo team to not only jump start the brain but connect its processing to an onboard computer with software that enabled Ben's thoughts to be interpolated with a voice program. BEN WAS BACK ! The team added  power and cooling systems, audio and video input capability and built a mobility unit to mount the twenty first century automaton on. Then affectionately named him "Dead Ben”.
                                                                   
When returned to Matt Walker, Dead Ben became the creative driving force that inspired Matt to found his new company in 2007 and even suggested Matt name it "Dead Presidents Designs" in honor of his being the President of Pennsylvania from 1785 thru 1788.

Here is a preview of my custom painted finished figure with a switched color changing LED unit mounted in the tank base that illuminates the red glass eyes.  

 Plaseebo and Dead Presidents Design, aka Monster Kolor, are pleased to announce the debut of the DEAD BEN hand cast resin figure on April 12th at the opening of the MONSTER BRAWL show at the Monster Kolor Gallery in Middleboro Ma. The show will feature custom versions of the Dead Ben figure by Miscreation, Jay222 and Plaseebo.

Candy Micro Drones and Gas Mask Magnets by Drilone

by
Drilone still has some Candy for sale in his store. With a bunch of Monster Kolor resin dye left, Drilone decided to make a bunch of GID Candy colored Gas mask Magnets and Micro Drones. Each piece costs $20 with shipping included in the US, shipping is extra everywhere else. The Gas Mask Magnets will come with eyes, while the GID feature of the resin pieces may be induced by either UV or just regular lighting. Drilone has also allowed customers to request a certain color, although not promised. Also, if you purchase more than 1 piece of either the Gas Mask Magnet or Micro Drone, Drilone assures that you will receive different colors.

Candy Gas Mask Magnets by Drilone

Drilone will probably keep making the Micro Drones and Candy Gas Mask Magnets until he runs out of dye. Help make that happen faster by purchasing a few of these great resin pieces.

Dope Vinyl presents Evilos painting rasta Vinylmations with Monster Kolor

by
My favorite writer may not agree, but in my opinion as a retailer, Monster Kolor paint is a selling point. Behold the beautiful Vinylmation figures by Evilos, painted in Monster Kolor paint. And check out the sweet short film below by Jordan of Dope Vinyl, who is currently traveling the world collecting footage of custom toy artists for his documentary (a project funded by Kickstarter). You can meet Jordan at our NYCC booth in October. Look for more footage coming from him all year long. You can also buy custom Vinylmations by Evilos at our NYCC booth this year: #208!
