The "ZETA: MANILA KILLA" from Quiccs x Devil Toys features a very distinctive colorway/design on the 6-inch tall ZETA TEQ63 vinyl figure, celebrating the Philippine Independence Day! To be unleashed at Toycon Philippines (June 28-30) at SMX Convention Center, @quiccs mentioned; "The 6-inch Version Zeta Manila Killa is the marquee toy for #TOYCON2019 and is the first of six exclusive releases from Quiccs’ collection this year!"
@quiccs is an invited Guest Artist at the event (since mentioned), alongside @_yoiiii, who will be offering up "BON-BON" (featured below), as produced by @iamwetworks (who himself will also be releasing a as-yet-revealed "Deadstock" vinyl figure), for aa debut release at Toycon Philippines (June 28-30) at SMX Convention Center. These are "100% hand sculpted then casted in resin and every piece are meticulously hand painted, (with a few pieces will be up at the webstore after the con."
Since launched for pre-orders online here are a trio of new vinyls from Sideshow's Unruly Industries-line, featuring "ONE-SCOOPS" by Erik Scoggan, which has a trio of Marvel Comics' characters s ice-cream-scoops, along with the (severed) hand of said character holding the ice-cream cone! Individually sized approx. 7-inches tall and priced at US$85 per, with an estimated arrival of January 2020 to March 2020.
Artist Statement: "The ‘One-Scoops’ Designer Toy Series is a quirky homage to the ‘Marvel One-Shots’ series of comics, but you know... if the characters were ice cream cones! I have lots of memories of excitedly chasing down ice cream trucks on my bike when I was growing up, only to be met with a face on my frosty treat that only sort of resembled the character – I always thought that was really funny. For these pieces, it was also really important to me to make the cones removable, because I want people to be able to hold them and play with them, and hopefully be taken back to when they were a kid!"
The reveals for Kidrobot's "Arcane Divination: The Lost Cards" continues with yet another JonPaul Kaiser-design; ""The Tower" represents a significant change in one's life, seemingly coming out of nowhere but nonetheless, has to be addressed and acknowledged. Perhaps you knew all along that this was inevitable, but how you address this seismic shift will reveal your true character.
This collectible art piece features a highly detailed head sculpt and comes with a mini tarot card featuring art by Jon-Paul Kaiser." ~posted @jonpaulkaiser. Stay tuned to @tokyo_jesus's reveal next!
