There's a lot of creative talent in South Africa. Case in point: reddprime is working out of Bloemfontein, S.A., bangin' out sick customs like this Bad Ass Vending Machine custom based on Steve Talkowski's Sketchbot figure. One of reddprime's local shops supporting him is Vinyl Destination, where you can buy this custom. If you want to follow reddprime, click through to his blog.

I can't tell you how much I love OsirisOrion's paint work. It's mind-blowing. This is his custom Mickey Mouse for the PlayImaginative show. Sick, deep metallic color. Heavy clearcoat makes the paint look so deep that you can dive into it like a swimming pool. Everything he paints looks amazing. Check out this album he has on Flickr. It's just amazing. That's all.

| LEECIFER "in cahoots with" Plaseebo |
"The Greater Tropical Night Gamer" custom edition by Lee "LEECIFER" Gajda is a 7 inch high vinyl Night Gamer which has been hand painted and embellished. This figure is limited to 8 pieces and has glass eye inserts and a motion activated LED unit inside the head, as well as Black Light action.
Thought to be primarily equatorial inhabitants, it's quite rare to see one in Northern climes. These shy and reclusive creatures are easily recognizable by their organically geometric markings, bright coloration, and vestigial wings/ear tufts. Seemingly evoking the oceanic opulence of coral reef patterns and crystal blue waters with a body equally inspired by lush vibrant foliage and the plumage of the rarest of topical birds. Their true beauty can only be appreciated in hand when it's possible to examine the subtle hues of metallic golds, coppers and other reflective colors adorning their skin. An additional epidermal surprise awaits when one exploits the Greater Tropical Night Gamer's fascination for UV/black lights revealing hints of almost incandescent phosphorescent coloration. This small flutter of 8 was lured stateside by Bob Conge and Lee "Leecifer" Gajda for selective collector adoption.

Allan Armenta (aka alarment) shares with us an excellent custom Mickey figure, which he did for the Play Imaginative showcase of their Mickeys. Nicely textured sculpting and detailed paint make this one an extremely well-executed custom! Little dude looks like he's at the end of his rope. Just so all of you know, they way this custom looks is how I feel inside 80% of the time.
Check out more alarment work here.

Shawn Wigs has released a whole gang of new Dunny customs based on the Calendario Dunny from Azteca Series II. I liked them so much that I picked up one of the green ones... and my man Foox picked one up as well. You can grab one for yourself, in several colorways, in Shawn's shop here.
Also available there are the Silly Rabbits Dunny series which Shawn put together, featuring the custom work of Shawn Wigs, of course, plus Mike Die, Fuller, BALD, Nerviswrek, JC Rivera and Ghostface Killah from Wu-Tang.
We also have some of Shawn's Candy Licker series left in stock here.
