HUCKGEE_PUTO
an exclusive Philippine inspired toy created by Huck Gee (looks inspired by his icon/avatar, IMHO = *coolness*), with a signing and launch to be held @ The Embassy, CUISINE (on Borgy Manotoc's HAPPY MONDAYS) - in collaboration with freshMANILA on 02.04.08 (February 4, 2008/Monday @ 10pm), PUTO will be available for purchase right there on the show itself!

Why PUTO? Huck says: "It's a play on words, a mix up of Spanish slang, old Italian and Philippino. In Italian "Putto" is the name of the cute little babies with wings that showed up in renaissance period paintings. "Puto" is Spanish for male prostitute/bitch. And in the Philippines PUTO is a cute white dessert, a tasty filipino steamed rice cake and is very, very popular. Yum." = *yumz indeed!*

standing approx. 7-8 inches tall, the final colorway will be in "bronze" and limited to only 100-pcs worldwide @ 3,500php (US$86) ... no news yet whether any pieces would be available to fans online tho ~ *stay tuned for more info*

  1. I hope the eyes are just and early version and will be changed back to look like the huck skull! Why would they make them all round and lame over the cool intense looking Huck version!

  2. ima thinking this may be a "baby"-version of the Skullhead (with baby plastic-peepee! LOL) as compared to the 12"-er Skullheads he'd done priors tho .. but that's just my warped mind going ... LOL

    Huck? :)
