Tattootoro-fakir-01
Tattootoro-fakir-02

From French designer Gonthier Olivier aka FAKIR DESIGN comes a custom that warms my classic anime-lurving heart … presenting TATTOOTORO! Miyazaki's beloved Dragon Cat stays relevant after it's two decade earlier movie incarnation, with Fakir's adaptation unto the NedZed *-incher tall form (always liked the form too, from Toy2R - designers by Rolito - whatever happened to him actually?), including attitude tattoos to give it cred! Delicious, and left me smiling as wide as the cat! Come to think of it, the backpack on this Totoro-design, would actually make a decent sequel-story to the anime, wouldn't it? A "Travelling Totoro" sotry for the new millennium@ Meanwhile, as you ponder the possibilities, check out more snaps via http://fakirdsgn.blogspot.com. 320 € will score you this 1-of-1 edition custom on Dirty Cream.

"Tesselate Sam" (my new name for Sam Millen aka Tesselate) is on a custom-Dunny-roll, with his fourth work ready to be released Feb 22nd at 6pm GMT online via http://www.tesselate.bigcartel.com/.

"Bobby the Trespasser" comes hand painted with acrylic and Posca Paint markers, and finished with multiple coats of clear lacquer. Check out more snaps of the Bobster via Flickr.

SANER-MUNNY

From Saner Flores comes an image of his new custom-Munny "RostroJaguar". It is always interesting to see an attests' work beyond production releases, of which Saner has quite a few with Kidrobot! Check out more of his works via www.saner.com.mx, and if you fancy the above 7" custom, it is yours for $400 dls - email contacto@saner.com.mx to seal the deal!

With the upcoming "Most Wanted Dunny Series 2" looming close. here's a quick teaser image of the "Golden Ticket" 8-inch Dunny from a collaboration between Tim Munz and Simon Waller. Nice and appreciative find on the inbox. methinks!

FRANK-MYSTERIO-TIGRE

Dubbed "The Tiger of Santa Julia", Frank Mysterio's custom-Munny can be seen in detail on his Flickr. He added: "…that name is a character from Mexico, that was supposed to be a robber and had many good women is nothing but inspired by his nom de tiger." ~Nifty tiger!

JENNIPHO-CUSTOM-MUNNY

Remember Jennipho's "Ice Cream Dunny" customs from 2010? Well, she's back in 2011 (at least on this humble blog anyways) with a new form and theme, this time vibing the Batle Arenas of the Cosmos? No details were given for these sculpts, but they sure look like they've been thru a ell of a ringer!

Rotobox Vinyl Anayomica shares with us two teaser banners for their upcoming customs to be released by March - featuring a MegaMunny (Sold before even it has been revealed!) and a third Jumbo Machinder Custom, as well sold! So no need to dig into your cyber-wallets folks, just stay tuned to gawk!

Rupert-Valero-Customs-2

ALR interviews Private First Class Rupert Valero on Frontline Customs. Rupert is stationed at Forward Operating Base (FOB) Wilson in Khandahar, Afghanistan - who has been producing toy figures based on recycled materials, and from these images, they look awesome! Also look for Rupert's work for sale on his Etsy, as well more of his work on Flickr. (Cheers for the headsup, Jia Hong!)

TOYBOT-ALIEN-ARGUS-01
TOYBOT-ALIEN-ARGUS-02

From Toybot Studios comes Kirkland's Alien Argus custom, featuring Onell Design and Monster Kolor, in an insane cacophony of Japanese sci-fi B-Movie aesthetics with exploding colors, vibrant unto the necha-kaiju concept, deliciously personified by the lift-open top of the Argus to reveal it's navigator! Dude, you need to film a video of the cockpit opening!

ALIEN-ARGUS-JAN-CALLEJA-02

STORY: DYADRONE represents the world wherein good and evil go well together. It signifies mankind’s duality and it being a key to survival. In our pursuit of being truly human, we become a monster too – consciously or unconsciously. Failure to accept this may lead to, worse, more evil. We just have to learn how to play both parts so we can face well whatever ironies of life there are. May it be happiness or grief, victory or failure, life or death.

ALIEN-ARGUS-JAN-CALLEJA-01

DYADRONE is a custom 10 inch Alien Argus by Jan Calleja for the Feb 26th Argus Custom Show @ Toy Art Gallery. DYADRONE is amazingly awesome, isn't he? And still on Jan's custom-case, have you seen his MAD HELLCAT "Dogfighter"?

HEELCAT2-JAN-CALLEJA-02

STORY: MAD HELLCAT - This DOGFIGHTER is the nemesis for ZEROMAN. During WWII The Mitsubishi Zero was the warplane to beat in the Pacific until the American F6 Hellcat came. More heavily armored and faster, the zero met its match.

HEELCAT2-JAN-CALLEJA-01

MAD HELLCAT is a 7 inch Celsius custom that takes its design cue from the F6 Hellcat. (Featuring photography from Ang Litratista Studios). If you are late to the game, check out WHO Jan is in my earlier interview with the Philippines artist HERE!

JPK-STOMP-CUSTOM

Jon-Paul Kaiser's STOMP-custom (on the 3" mini-form) did the internet-rounds earlier this week (and believe it, it traveled far and wie, as all JPK-customs do), and now finds it's way unto the humble TOYSREVIL-blog, and regardless of timeline, a good custom is still a good custom, no? Awesome work as ever, JPK!

JPK-blogged: "He was translucent when I received him, and a lot of the details of the terrific sculpt were lost so I decided to try and bring the character and design out more with the paintwork."

STEEL-NINJA-DUNNY

Customizer TazX just keeps going, and he has another new 3" custom-Dunny called "Steel Ninja" in two versions, Regular (Sold) and the US$60 "Battle Damaged" version you can buy here. As well there is still a new teaser on the site, of a new 3" Dunny to come. Keep on going, TarzX!

NINJA-SPIKI-MADL

Shortly after thus Hello-Kitty custom, Nakanari offers up yet another 5" MadL-custom, this time featuring Ninja Spiki ~ available via http://maihiro.bigcartel.com from Feb 19th.

"Spiki is a super ninja in his mind, and he spends his time daydreaming of how he might save the world on different occasions. Whatever he tries to do is accomplished in a humorous manner- he's a lovable character with good intentions but sometimes not quite as skilled as he might think.  In the end, though, he comes through and saves the day!"

NOFERIN-JIBIBUTS

And apparently I was utterly wrong! The earlier teaser from Noferin were not production pieces, but instead custom-painted Jibibuts for myplasticheart's NEW MOON show! More images via Noferin Flickr, or go direct to procure them here.

MONSTER-MISFITS-RYNIAK

Chris Ryniak's work-table with sculpts galore for Japan's Monsters & Misfits show. How many times can I say "impressive" before you believe me?
