Win A Sugar Skull Plush Contest (by Jared Deal x TOYSREVIL)
UPDATED 18.03.09: Contest Submissions are now Closed. Thanks for taking part and good luck, y'all! :)
Fancy a skull-faced plush sitting on your pillow? Or hanging above your bed? Or even whispering sweet sugary nothings inside your ear? ~ Well, maybe not the last bit - but as part of the TRE Blog-Birthday celebrations, Jared Deal has generously sponsored a SUGAR SKULL plush for a TRE-contest!
[CLICK THRU FOR CONTEST DETAILS]
The plush originated from DIA DE LOS PLUSH (a Day Of The Dead plush show for Red Hot Robot) in 2008 [WHAT] where the first incarnation saw the Six Point Sugar Skull receiving antlers.
Jared mentions: "I got a good response from the character & decided to do more w/ him. So I started to make more plushes & paintings using this Sugar Skull character as the main focus. He shows up in a lot of my recent work. The yellow one you have appeared in the annual "Too Art For TV" gallery show for the animation industry." ~ Do check out Jared's Etsy-shop to see if Sugar Skull will appear :p
