ORIGINAL BLOG-POST: Custom VIMOBOTS be invading SDCC this July, methinks! And while details are yet revealed (not that I've tried asking, mind :p) - customed goodness for the 3.5 inch tall platform figurine by Mimoco (inclusive articulated lil limbs) has been popping up across the TRE-horizon and what choice yumminess they be, IMHO! Check out the a sampling thus far:
I'm not too sure if PHONETICONTROL's Swiss is administering aid to the fallen OH, or they be just chillin' by the side of the road. Eric-says: "smallest customs I ever done. I think I am now blind."
I am convinced that Alex Drils aka DrilOne is amassing his very own arsenal of *Weapons of Toy-Destruction*. Just take a look at his various customs on flickr and you KNOW the man (and his toys) means biznez! Lock'n'Load, Folks!
And from the creator of Spade-Skull and Totem-inspired custom painted toys comes an exploration into tiki-style with this sneak-peek at Reactor88's custom-Vimobot. (FYI: This image is cropped = CLICK to view full original image!)
UK-customizer Lunabee has lined up not one, but three custom-Vimobots named: Shaman,
Tor and Nimbus! Exploding with her by-now signature style and explosion of colors! (5 x images in slideshow above)
