HEY YOU G.U.Y.S (give us your sweets) by Tesselate to drop October 19
Since our last blog-post of the making-of packaging, Sam Millen aka Tesselate is getting ready to unleash the HEY YOU G.U.Y.S resin Halloween figures from October 19th online via http://www.madebytesselate.com. The HYG crew stand at 4cm tall with masks off, and around 7 - 9cm tall with masks on. Each figure will be sold seperately, comes with own packaging and will have some tesselate stickers bundled in with the package.
The HEY YOU G.U.Y.S resin Halloween figures will consist of 6 members of the HYG, 1 or 2 super secret characters (it's secret) and also a BOSS character, who is the nemesis of the HYG crew! Personally speaking, this is on of the more outstanding series from Tesselate thus far, IMHO. CLICK THRU for mondo-more snaps and an little introduction to the members :)
"In the year 2045 a lot of things are different, yes they have hoverboards, flying cars and self lacing shoes, but somethings do not change. One thing that has not changed is Halloween, yes of course they have hologram sweets, hologram hoverbikes and massive robotic sweet collecting hands, but the core element behind the event stil runs through strong their blood.
The HEY YOU G.U.Y.S (G.U.Y.S stands for 'give us your sweets') strive to continue the tradition of knocking on doors and saying the immortal lines 'trick of treat'. They are the best of the best, albeit assisted by hologram elongated arms and robotic friends, but they really are the best, top of the pops, king of the castle, nobody beats them in the art of candy extraction."

WHO IS IN THE TEAM:
Bob Junior is the leader of the HEY YOU G.U.Y.S, at just 8yrs old he is the reigning world champion at Call of Duty : World War 6X, and has an amazing collection of alien artifacts from the mines of Mars. He sports a very traditional pumpkin style mask, but this is a special mask, it can amplify the size of the users hands by 15%, which is unbeleivably useful.
His close friend to us looks very odd, but in 2045 it is common place to have robots as friends. Dodger is a class 7 self compiling bio organic machine, who met Bob Junior one day down the Holopark and they have been best friends ever since.
Things that are scary to humans are not necesarily scary to robots, so the mask which Dodger made himself, may look quite tame to us humans, but to a robot it's more terrifying than you could possibly imagine.
Double Jason is probably second in command of the HEY YOU G.U.Y.S but it's never really talked about. Jason is addicted to the online long running cartoon 'Massive Long Fun : Quattro Explosion'. The main character is a purple creature called Quattro, who has a right temper on him.
Most episodes of the cartoon revolve around Quattro driving hovercars into hovercar showrooms at varying speeds, whilst pulling comical faces out of the drivers side holowindow. It's all very strange, but Jason LOVES it, and has even decorated his halloween mask with two faces of his favourite online star.
The character with the skull themed mask there is Andro Dyandro. Andro's father was a fighter pilot in the battle for Saturn back in 2027 and was awarded 378 medals of honor for protecting General Zylok whilst he was under attack from The Darlonian Battle Elite. The skull design on Andro's mask is a homage to the designs emblazened onto his fathers fighter craft. The only real difference is that the skull on his fathers spaceship was 7000 times larger, and of course was a hologram.
