    Its fun to talk about each individual piece that people question if its a custom or not but it would be good to have a clear cataloguing definition. So just putting it out there:

    For catalogue reasons, "custom" should be left for pieces made by other designers/artists in a non official manner (official being official collaborations/original artist works)

    Even if its a one off variant/colourway/design done officially, Its still not a catalogue "custom"

    Catalogue wise, official shows get tricky as esentually the original artists/designer is asking other artists/designers to collaborate with them for a show.

    So there may need to be another definition where if a toy is used for the platform, such as sketchbot 2 show, it should be "custom"

    Yet if the show has individual pieces, such as red kaiju, even if its just a one off, its not "custom" (if made original artist/designer.)

    What you think?

    I still believe that an artist can release a custom of their own toy. If you look at artists website such as mark nagatas max toy for example, then they have sections named "customs" which contain one of a kind paint jobs of their own toys.

    Also I agree with idea that a custom can have more than one
    edition. "production customs"

    They would have tagged as a custom because it was part of the 'red carpet kaiju show' yet the toy itself was produced by TAG and I am sure we we will see it beyond the show.

    Who knows, its easy to tick boxes incorrectly. Also they may also have no clear definition and more than one person inputting in the entries.

    What is your own definition? It's easy to find contradictions on almost every artists website, I wouldn't use any artists websites as a definite answer to what is considered a custom, especially for cataloguing on rotocasted.

    The following is what I believe should be used for the definition of what a "custom" is in Rotocasted catalogue:

    To me, a "custom" is when an artist/designer is using another toy as a platform, even if its recasting parts in a non official manner.

    If the original artist/designer uses their own toy, its a called a variation.

    If the original artist/designer is commissioned by someone to make something exclusive for them, it's a "Commission piece" where you can specify the person that commissioned the piece as the producer.

    If the original artists/designer allows another artist/designer to use their toy as a platform in an official manner its a collaboration. ( (name) x (name) is the commonly used naming)

    As mentioned above in my first post, exhibitions get tricky and needs its own definition:

    If the exhibition uses a toy as a platform, where only one figure is used by every artist, such as sketchbot 2 show, it should be "custom"

    If the exhibition has individual pieces, such as red carpet kaiju, even if its just a one off, its not "custom" (if made original artist/designer or a collaboration) but "(exhibition name) variant"

    If the artists/designer uses another artists/designers character design in an official manner, its a "collaboration" (Name x Name)

    If the artists/designer uses another artists/designers character design in a non official manner, without using another toy as a platform. Its not a "custom" but its own piece.

    If the artists/designer uses another artists/designers character design in a non official manner, using their own toy as a platform. Its not a "custom" but a "(name of their toy used) (name of other character) variant"

    Did I forget any possible conditions??

    So are you suggesting Rotocasted extend their menu categorizing system from toy library and Custom to:

    Toy library (regular editions)
    Variations
    “Show” variants
    Commission pieces
    Collaborations
    And Customs.

    This seems excessive? Should we include bootlegs? Artist proofs? Prototypes?

    This would work if you have just one library, and the toy specs/tags are categorized with your definitions. But having menu sub category's help navigation.

    Or are you suggesting the custom section has a sub menu of variations, commissions, collaborations etc? Which will mean they are custom types?

    How do you foresee rotocasted implementing your definitions?

    My definition of a custom toy is unclear, hence my input into this discussion. If I look at the universal definition of custom, then I would say it is to put your own personal stamp, modification onto an existing object. You have made it personal to you.

    So indeed I agree taking another artists toy with permission as a platform, and putting your own customization onto that toy is a collaboration. But surly it’s a custom collaboration? You have changed/modified the toy to your own taste?

    I am not contradicting your definitions, as I agree with many of them. I am merely making observations on the current categorizing systems in place beyond this site.

    No need to add all of the possible variants to the interface. This list is needed to have a set of basic rules for adding toy to the library or custom section, because almost every self-produced toy opening a debate is it custom or not.
    AP, Prototype, Collaboration or else we can add to the comments or toy name.

  • Lee

    Lee

    So the toys will still go in the custom section? As custom AP, custom collaboration, custom show variants etc? then they are custom types.

  • sergeySafonov angel

    sergeySafonov

    Sure. And I think we don't need special tagging group to sort all of the Custom Artist Proofs or Collaborations form the rest of the customs. We have plenty of ways to display that.

  • Lee

    So back to my original point. If the original artist/designer produces a one of a kind version of their own toy, I agree it is a variation. But the fact they have taken something and personalized it either with paint and or modification, then it’s a custom variation? And should be placed in the custom section.

    What about this toy? Is it a "Commission piece" as it was commissioned by TAG? Is it a “Variant” as it can be seen as a variant / modification of Carlos’s Vagina brain monster? Is it a “red carpet kaiju” variant? As it was in the red carpet kaiju show?

    how can we agree that commissions, variants and show variants are not custom?

    If you commission something it is custom for you. If an artist produces a one of a kind hand painted variation for an exhibition, its custom painted by the artist.

    I do not agree that none of the toys at the red carpet kaiju show were custom.

    “Toy Art Gallery is proud to present its newest group show, Red Carpet Kaiju. TAG will debut Gonzalez’ controversial “Hierophany” toy, and has invited some of the best monster and kaiju-inspired artists from around the world to showcase their unique visions and talents within this strange and wonderful sub-genre of art toys. Their work spans from production toys and hand-painted customs to unique sculptures made from a variety of mediums.”

    Also there are too many toys from that show placed in TAG’s custom section to justify boxes being incorrectly ticked.

    (I apologise that I do repeat myself a few times but I felt it was necessary to respond to various points lee made)

    There is no need to make sub categories. I just wanted a list so people can clearly put into rotocasteds custom/non-custom library.

    Its just one simple question:

    "Is this toy using another artists/designers toy in a non official manner and/or made for an exhibition where only one figure is used by every artist? "

    If you answer no, it shouldn't be in the custom library.

    Once again; in the list, there is only two ways something can be considered to be a custom:

    - a "custom" is when an artist/designer is using another toy as a platform, even if its recasting parts in a non official manner.

    and

    - If the exhibition uses a toy as a platform, where only one figure is used by every artist, such as sketchbot 2 show, it should be "custom"

    Everything else is not a custom and should be separated from the custom library and just put into the main library. (The type tag may be adjusted but "Designer toy" is good enough)

    @lee

    - "the fact they have taken something and personalized it either with paint and or modification, then it’s a custom variation? And should be placed in the custom section. "

    Only custom if they used someone elses toy in a non official manner. Its just a "variation" if they used their own toy, not a "custom variation"

    - "What about this toy? .....

    how can we agree that commissions, variants and show variants are not custom?"

    It can talked about in all of those categories but it wouldn't make this a custom piece as this toy is not using another artists/designers toy in a non official manner and/or made for an exhibition where only one figure is used by every artist.

    - "I do not agree that none of the toys at the red carpet kaiju show were custom. "

    I never said that but I guess the point should have been clearer.

    (from list) - If the exhibition has individual pieces, such as red carpet kaiju, even if its just a one off, its not "custom" (if made original artist/designer or a collaboration) but "(exhibition name) variant"

    That does need to be formatted to be clearer. "if made by original artist/designer or a collaboration" brings it back to the original question asking if it is custom or not.

    Osiris Orion had a whole bunch of customs there, he used another artists/desginers toy in a non official way. His work is pimp and I love it.

    @fliphappy Agree, hopefully this list will simply separate what is considered a custom on rotocasted.

    The word 'custom' can be open to various interpretations, especially when you start using the word 'customisation'. I tried to make my list a clear cut answer as to avoid talks about if its a custom or not.

    o.k. This is getting nowhere. If your going to condense your opinion to just one simple question:

    "Is this toy using another artists/designers toy in a non official manner and/or made for an exhibition where only one figure is used by every artist? "

    "If you answer no, it shouldn't be in the custom library."

    If rotocasted want to use your limited categorization then so be it. I am going to listen to the wider audience who in my opinion are in a better position to define what is custom and what is not.

    I agree this may not be a custom toy, hence i put it in the designer toy section. My issue is when it comes to an artists own custom variant, which you are so keen to dismiss.For example:

    Vinyl pulse has numerous links to artist’s own custom variations. This link makes my point clearer.

    “So many amazing shows coming up in the next couple months. This here is Paul Kaiju’s Custom Boss Carrion for the Red Carpet Kaiju show at Toy Art Gallery. What better figure to customize than your own. Paul always does such amazing detail work, as you can see on the Boss Carrion. The show takes place on Saturday, September 4th from 7-11PM.”
    http://www.vinylpulse.com/2010/08/paul-kaiju-for-red-carpet-kaiju-0904.html

    “What better figure to customize than your own” says it all for me. And notice how customize is also linked to custom.

    Or what about my plastic heart who are selling Kathie Olivas Custom variants of her red bird:
    “custom vinyl toys revolving around her post-apocalyptic themed group of cute but tainted characters.”
    http://www.myplasticheart.com/Merchant2/merchant.mvc?Screen=CTGY&Store_Code=MPH&Category_Code=0000UNINVITEDGUESTS&sort=name.asc

    As for someone like Mark Nagata, well to many links to custom eyezons to mention. How about a bit of Ron English?
    “Ron English, master of billboard popaganda, created roughly 40 hand-customized SupersizeMe figures”
    http://www.vinylpulse.com/nycc_07/

    And there are many more!

    I cant see how major sites like vinyl pulse, artists and gallery's are getting this wrong? Anyway as @fliphappy says this is not life or death. I value your opinion, as I value anyone’s opinion. But I am not convinced your opinion is valid. So lets agree to disagree. And on that note I am also getting off the soap box. Adios!

    Artists, other resources or anyone else might call it whatever they want. This website run by community and agreement on the terms is the corner stone of our efforts.

    The reason of discussing the terminology is simple, separate one kind of toys from another by stylistic contexts with simple reason, clear library organization and consistency.
    That's why we mark designer toys only as "designer toys", not as des figurines à des adultes, Urban Vinyl, Sculpture multiples, artist vinyl, etc.
    I appreciate all of the comments, but if you don't really care why bother? Everybody is wrong on the internets.
    What we do here is amateur art history exercise, so here's some further reading — http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/...

    This piece, to me, is a variant or commission, call it wherever you want and put to the general Library, not custom.

    Thank you, everyone.

    @Lee I agree with you that you can call them all "customs", I even mentioned previously about Mark Nagata and have said that the "custom" have multiple interpretations.

    It still seems you don't understand what I am trying to write up. You are only referring to other websites and not realising why we need to separate custom/non-custom on rotocasteds library, its only about cataloguing reasons.

    The list is just for a line in the dirt to determine what is considered a custom in the library. Its not limiting the categorisation; its expanding it. As you previously mentioned about this piece, you can have multiple categories for a single figure.

    The custom section on the library separates the people that "custom" other peoples works from the people that release their own "original" works (This isn't referring to the originality of their works.).

    If the artists/designer owns the property that they are "customising", it should be considered a "variant". Especially considering production painters are getting into the game now and can "custom" paint a huge batch. How many figures do you release before its not a "custom" ?? You can't say 1 as there are lots of artists/designers that release "original" 1 of 1 pieces or small batches. It doesn't have a clear cut line.

    The word "Variant" can be used in all the mentioned websites you linked. "Variant" is exactly the same as "custom" but its trying to separate it for catalogue reasons on rotocasted. Other websites can easily jump around with jargon but this is just a cataloguing website.

    There is no standard terminology, there never will be. Referencing other websites you will always find contradictions as there is no standard jargon. You can call it a "custom" with good reason with almost any toy release; at what point do you draw the line? That is the reasoning of the clear cut list.

    @Shradical7 I just wanted to say hello, how is it going? Its a nice day here, which is good!!! It has been raining too much lately :( (this is so you can feel like you are getting something out of the email notification)

    @Shradical7 Yes, all the customs that weren't sold at the show were online for sale. But that sale's over two weeks ago.

    Who is the SUCKLORD 16? With the recent disappearance of the SUCKLORD 77, one must wonder, what is the connection? Who is this black-clad, silent look-alike wandering among the shadows? Is he the new incarnation of the ever changing SUCKLORD? If so, why the lower number? Does the SUCKLORD not evolve up? Or is he some ancient predecessor to the SUCKLORD somehow trapped in our own time? Is he some type of spectral ancestor come from the past to issue a warning? If so, why is the SUCKLORD in absence an unable to heed his antecedent's call? Or is this the actual SUCKLORD, charred from some unknown conflict, wandering the Earth as a mere shell of himself, unable to relate his tale? These questions may never be answered...

    Not really... There's some very basic resemblance, but only if you look at the front side of "The Destroyer". From the side and back it doesn't resemble O-No Sushi at all.

    In the Bag!! Awesome!!

    Just FYI, UK shipping from Loyal Subjects is pricey, shipping was half the price of the toy again. However, it gets really affordable if you buy multiple toys, comes down further and further the more you order.

    So it may be worth clubbing in with friends and doing a big order to the UK.

    Just a thought.

    @fliphappy LOL sorry I missed your rant while I was sleeping :P if colorways work for a design why not? they made a mold and try many ways to get the most out of the investment. A set of colorways that I hate is the lazy iterations of the unpainted Bossy Bear family. S7 can bring out all the different colorways but does it annoy you because you want to get them all? Simplest way to vote is not buying :)

    Finally with mucho love for the Destroyer voiced here, I personally prefer the boobie shaped figures instead of this. I would have loved it more if it hasn't got arms and legs. Feels like they were added on so that he can stand up?

    I'll eventually have to reconsider keeping the boxes if I don't stop buying toys or if I don't move to a bigger place. I keep all boxes, and I have well over 600 toys, including several big items such as 1000% Bearbricks...
