PRESS: Renowned toy designer/sculptor Dave Cortes (Inu Art) will be releasing the latest version of his Pugzee designer toy this Friday Oct. 18th. This is the 3rd version of Pugzee and is called Sideshow Barker. This version of Pugzee follows up after the first two - Jailbreaker and Street Version, and pays tribute to another legendary Brooklyn neighborhood, Coney Island. Just like Red Hook, Coney Island has been through it's own transformations, from Luna to Steeplechase Park to Coney Island. Throughout Coney's changes, one thing remained, a fixture of Coney Island, the sideshows. What Pugzee is to Red Hook is what Sideshow Barker is to Coney Island.
PRESS-CONTINUED: This awesome paint job of "Sideshow Barker" Pugzee was designed and executed by Brandy Anderson. Brandy Anderson is responsible for painting every prototype produced by Inu Art and has been working with Dave Cortes for over 6 years. Sideshow Barker, appropriately named by Brandy Anderson was conceived when Dave Cortes dropped a blank resin casting at Brandy's place with the idea that she should paint it whatever way she wanted. Dave was blown away when Brandy dropped off the tatted pug as Coney Island's Illustrated Man.
