I believe its name is just 'Vagina Monster' and its designed by Carlos Enriquez-Gonzalez
http://www.carlosenriquezgonzalez.com/
He specialises in GIANT 6ft-12ft kaiju, its really sweet stuff. I don't know how you can track one down but I did find this:

More art than toy?

True, I was thinking the fact that it was suckadelic and casts of toys would make it fun to have in the library.

"Wall Art" as the type is a good idea! I think we are going to see an emergence of wall art/toys in the coming months. -

Here is a real neat wall art/toy:

There are a few customs on plaques out there; I am seeing it more often, I don't know if I am just paying more attention to it or a trend is emerging but I would like to see "wall art" releases from various production studios. -

This is interesting.Did he just look around his workshop and decide he could get extra value from things lying around ?
I'd be interested in something similar from say Pete Fowler or MARS-1? I think we will see more of this sort of thing. :) -

this one is gorgeous...
I ordered a couple of blind boxes for the heck of it, for a tiny chance at this, the Hernandez or the Beast Brothers Dunny, 'cause I don't shell out the big moneys for the little toys on Ebay :P
I'm saving up for some larger rare pieces. -
13 years ago
These will go down in price with time. Some have gone for as low as USD 80. These are 1/400, which is the same ratio as the Easy Hey in the French series, which used to be a lot pricier and now commands around USD 75.

I'm obviously not a real girl. The one thing that freaks me out the most is the expression on the face! Maybe if it had a cute face then I'd be won over by it.
-

The biggest attraction is that it is rare and it's worth a lot of money. Then some like to complete their series. Not many mini toys that can be sold at such an inflated price as a rare dunny can!
-
13 years ago
I am not a fan of KR or dunny but I think this one is nice. The design matches the form well :D
As they would have unique tooling just for this piece, would KR ever re-release this one? -
13 years ago
I suppose I'm not a conventional toy collector then, I only go for things like Qees and Dunnys that catch my eye, with the exception of things like the Toxic Swamp series and others...

I'm like Elissa - I don't care about the rarity of things, just if I love them or not.
And I do like Dunnys a lot, and I really like this one.
But I don't chase Dunnys and I don't pay high prices for them - I rather save my money for things that actually cost a lot because of high production costs rather then rarity in the market. Which is why I'll probably never own this Dunny. I still like the design.
I don't like chases at all, and as an artist I'm not going to do them. -
13 years ago
Lordsketch, you're in an awfully agree-with-Elissa-able mood today :) Blindboxes give a thrill, and fair enough if you happen to luckily stumble across a chase, but in the cases of old series of toys and such, there's no other way than to track them down on eBay or Doc18's bad ass Toy Boot Sale and suchlike :)
-
13 years ago
I also enjoy opening blind boxes :P but I have never really understood why people go crazy for dunny. Then again I am not a platform collector. I do have a few funky colour variants but I have never paid more for a chase figure.
On the note of crazy collector; I have dealt with a few crazies over the years. Once this dude bought every single tomb raider bust (7 in stock at the time) just because he didn't want anyone else to have it. I told the dude I would still order more in, he didnt care and came back and bought the 3 others. It wasn't a rare piece, it was just some shitty tomb raider bust. I normally wouldn't have dealt with tomb raider but a few people custom ordered it so I got a few extras.
I still don't know why he did it.... ebay I guess, I never followed ebay prices :P it may have been rare but I was able to order plenty from one supplier. Yet I really didn't want this guy to waste his money ... -
13 years ago
Maybe he had some disturbing Lara Croft obsession? Or would he have 'flipped' them? I read an old issue of Clutter magazine the other day and I've only just found out what flipping is, so I feel wary of using the word :)
-
13 years ago
blind boxes have nothing good for the collectors, just to make them buy more :P it is getting silly now that mini figures are mostly blind boxed and costing so much. For 3/4 minis you can get a nice large figure.
I try to keep to the artists that I like and a few of them happen to work with KR a lot that makes me buy lots of Dunnys to get them :P Luckily in this series the 1/400 is not one of my fav. artists :) -

I guess the Dunnys hit very high prices because there are a lot of people collecting them.
I don't collect minis very much, except for artists I really like and older ones I think are super cool (like Neo Kaiju Project). But I like Dunnys and they have a lot of cool designs and they're fairly cheap if you're not after everything or the special chases.
I collect *toys* and I don't have any special sub-category like I collect this artist or that, or this platform, I just like what I like and get it if I can, which is why my collection is pretty eclectic. There are artists I would like to have more figures from if I could afford it, sure, but I'm not into multiple colorways and all that.
I'm against completeist-ism and I don't think one should pay through the roof for a chase.
I even don't like the word "collector" cause that implies having something for the sake of having it, and it's really not what I"m doing - I like to have beautiful things, great art and stuff that makes me happy. -

I don't have anything in your wishlist for trade, but have some other stuff. What kind of toys/artists do you like? I have the Beast Brothers Azteca 2 AP's (both the gold and the bloody versions with signed cards on acrylic frame, 8/20) if you are interested.

Nope. This is one of my favorite pieces. I'll take a look at what I have and get back to you. I know I have an extra Yeti Qee 8" (Biskup), and an extra Pupik (Gary Baseman).

Mine came with the string on the bow. I have heard of a couple other people's came with the string but thats about it. I wonder if it is a QC problem or if only some were supposed to come with the string.

This is a really good conversation to have. A CUSTOM can be a one-of-a-kind original (especially if the customizer has gone above and beyond to make something new out of the original toy). However, a ONE-OF-A-KIND ORIGINAL is not typically going to be a CUSTOM. In the case here, the talented Jimmy Foo has created an original figure with his own original sculpt. This would only be a custom, if Jimmy writes that underneath the purple, there is a Munny in there somewhere :)
-
13 years ago
There are talks in multiple toy commentaries on Rotocasted. My reasoning for what is classified a custom:
Custom: Uses another toy as its platform, including re-casting parts. Therefore customising a toy.
Original: Creating a sculpt without use of another toy as its platform. An original toy. -
13 years ago
I feel there is a difference between "customizing" and "custom". I would define taking a platform toy and painting it or making it your own would be customizing or customization, however, making your own one of a kind toy would be a custom (as in custom made). IMHO.
-
13 years ago
As toy design as we know it is relatively new, it may be helpful to reference an older practice to define the nature of the beast.
In furniture design, the term "custom made" tends to be only used if you were commissioned to do a unique piece for someone. The person commissioning the piece would set the design specifications for the custom made furniture, not the designer.
One of a kind pieces get made in furniture design often and are not considered custom pieces but new designs.
English language seems to lack the words required for this subject :P The interpretation of words like 'original' and 'custom' can easily become out of context. -

I think in this instance the term 'custom' is being confused with customised. Imo, to customise is to take an existing object and make alterations. A custom is essentially a commission with some kind of client brief. However, I regard this piece to be neither of the above as it's an original design....soooo... Between Jeremy and CoMus I'd say it's pretty much covered.
