Psycho Customs pt II

With the season 4 premier of The Walking Dead just around the corner and a tragic shortage of posts in the last week, we've decided we should get off our bee-hinds and put something together.

Today we have a collection of 1/6 figures,  customized by the talented folks at Psycho Customs. A grisly series of Zombified DC Heroes!  I previously posted their zombie Superman, and now we are compiling shots of their other DCU related undead heroes!

I've long enjoyed the Flash and the idea of super speed. Since yours truly is chronically late, the idea of super speed has always had a certain appeal to this blogger. I'm not so sure how super speed would affect an undead body, but I tells ya, a super fast zombie? My cardio isn't good enough to outrun a normal walking zombie. 

Oh 60's Batman and Robin. They always made me laugh with their campy antics and chummy rapport. This time there's no campiness nor old chums. Just a young boy and his creepy bat-suited ward turned undead. I have to wonder if it was Batman that was chewing on Robin's face?

Kidrobot Dunny Evolved Full Series Reveal!

from The Andy Griffith Show to Robocop

The ongoing saga of teasers from the Dunny Evolved series by Kidrobot has finally come to an end!  After weeks of teasers, (all of which we've been following) the full kit 'n kaboodle has been unveiled to the world!  First on the list is the Huck Gee stages, clearly showing the evolution of law enforcement from Barney Fife to to mecha-armored CopRobo (see what I did there)

Space-man to Mer-Man!

Next up.. the legend Frank Kozik showing a more literal take on the evolutionary theme... or is it?  If the order can be of any an inference, mayhaps Kozik is showing us the fall of man and his eventual return to the sea? Taken in this way, I feel the dual order of things can speak volumes on the cycle of nature and the inevitability a return to nature... well played Frank.  Well played.

Party Animal!

Kronk takes a light-hearted approach in his stages and I love it!  The evolution of a party animal from uptight party entrant, to rain making lust machine, to a full on party animal!  I love the sculpt work on the final stage and the way he's injected such fun into his series.

Amp-olution!

McBess's series was the dark horse.  Going completely un-teased, this is the biggest surprise, and I love it.  Showing the evolution of speaker tech, possible guitar amps. Specifically for a music fan, especially a guitar player, this set may hold the most interest.  I love the subtle evolution in design as well.  From a simple painted dunny to a uniquet head unique sculpt! 

Enter the Dragon-lotus

Last, but definitely not least, we have the vibrant work of Scott Tolleson's.  It seems he's forgone his trademark argyle and moved in a new direction! These stages have the most, ethereal quality with a sort of fantastical approach.  From what I can guess, it appears to be the the evolution of a lotus and  a possible snap-dragon into a literal sort of Dragon-Lotus.  This one just oozes magic and mystery! 

I like this series and the entire concept.  Instead of giving a single artist a single figure platform upon which to work, providing a series of 3 to expand on an idea is a breath of fresh air and allows for some amazing artistic expression!

Now to the meat and potatoes... releasing Ocotober 10th, Kidrobot's "Dunny Evolved," featuring designs by Frank Kozik, McBess, Kronk, Huck Gee, and Scott Tolleson, will retial for $10 per blindbox.

Vicious Plush Might Give You Huggable Nightmares

Vicious Plush has something terrifying in store for you!  Introduce their brand new plush toy line, featuring Tear Bear, BaBOO! and Hissy Puss!  Each of there frightening furry fiends comes with glow-in-the-dark eyes.  Perfect for giving fear complexes to that poorly behaved child in your life.  What's better, Tear Bear and BaBOO have a bloody soaked variant.  Just to ensure that your little bundle of joy becomes that serial killer you're family's been lacking.  Vicious Plush has a Kickstarter going right now to fund these these nightmarish-ly adorable critters.  At approximately a foot tall and priced at $35, Squishables, these are not! Though Tear Bar does remind me of little Akamaru and the Squishable Shiba Inu I got of him

$10 gets these postcards

Just in case 12 inches of terrifying plush isn't good enough, for a $120 backing, you'll get a three foot Tear Bear! Interestingly, their stretch goal is a wolf and an alligator.  I'm interested to see if they'll make it that far as I'm curious about 

hopefully these beauts will see design phase

Check out their Kickstarter campaign to learn more about their process and back this original idea!!
