kennyswork 1/6 diver figure: dig
from Kennyswork's Copperhead-18 series comes a new 1/6th diver-figure, named: "DIG"there will be 2 versions of DIG, with the Regular version clad in brown and a Special White version. each figure is to come with a "statue/pedestal" (which holds an octopus-looking mechanism, that is said to be a "pressure bomb") and a certificate of authenticity. as well as an exceptional concept of a "replacement-leg" (refer "origin story" below) and the hyper-realistic details and accessories that have become synonymous with Kenny Wong's (of Brothersfree fame) designs/products, IMHO :)
*mondo-more images and origin story after the jump*


this is an extract of the origin/story of DIG:
"During one of his excavations into the deep-sea ruins, Dig was attacked by a mysterious “sea monster.” He barely escaped with his life; the beast claimed his left leg ... Rather than giving up or sinking into sorrow, Dig became even more determined to defend the coasts against any further attacks and to explore the deep-sea to unravel its mysteries. All of the villagers he admire Dig for his positive attitude and bright spirit. He is a natural, charismatic leader. After being fitted with his replacement leg, the village children began to call him “the smiling spear.” [read more via]

ReplyDeleteHow many clams does one of his figures go for?
This could get me collecting 1/6th toys...
don't rightly know about the prices at this point Dok, sorry ...
ReplyDeletebut if the previous Coperhead-18 DARK was any indication: i've found the regular version on ebay starting at USD$160, while the special (White) edition was going for around USD$400+ online! *yikes*
i have only seen it up front (wish i owned one LOL) and man, it sure looks utterly solid, IMHO

Wow. Nice images.
ReplyDeleteI have the Copperhead Dark regular version and it is NICE! Leather divesuit and the helmet is metal. Very nice detail and quality. In fact that is why I started collecting 1/6th and Brothersfree.
