I've been wanting this ever since I saw the large versions Pretty In Plastic made for Neon Monster. -

I'm digging these guys as well. They're going to be released at Dcon this weekend. Artist custom editions will be shown as well I believe. Check out Le Merde's blog to scope out the awesome piece he created!

$38 is actually pretty reasonable for a limited edition resin figure. they are up for pre-order now.

Reasonable yes. I like it... but its kinda at that price where I have to really think about it before I buy... If it was 30, I would snatch it up in a heart beat. But that's just me.

This is the semi-clear milky-white colour variant. It is not the same as the silver version in the link you posted jazzy. You can definitely tell because if you look around the waist you can see the black vinyl of the pants through the semi-clear white vinyl.

You beat me to it. I've had this in my watch list for a couple of days, and kept meaning to post the link here. Thats a great price for a set of 16 Rebel Inks. But if I had that sort of money, I think I would get a new iMac first.

I love that this is open to interpretation, but must admit, first thing that comes to mind for BM is definitely "bowel movement"!

I'll take photos of this when it comes in. Stoked that these old MINDstyle colorways were a warehouse find. SKWAK is one of the most underrated artists in this scene. His art feels like the inside of my head.

This is a sweet piece, and you can find them pretty cheaply on eBay due to some distributor clearance. They were originally priced at upwards of $100, and they're going at around $30 now. LOVE SKWAK! Even without all the color, he's great :)
-

actually, as far as I know, Mindstyle bad name is due to their shadiness in the relation with the artists (not paying them, not sending their APs), not about quality. I own toys from 2 series by Mindstyle (Mechtorians & serv-o-matics) and the quality is great.

Yeah same as amavevera, I've been told TONS of awful stuff about MINDstyle's ethics and operations, but if it's possible to put all that aside, the toys themselves are done really well. If you compare SKWAK's Maniac to SKWAK's KR Dunny, you can see what I mean. I only wish 1) MINDstyle didn't treat its artists so badly and 2) There was a green colorway of this piece :)
-
-

How do they treat them bad? Not pay them for their work? Do they say "we are making a toy of your artwork, that is your payment"?
Interested in this I am. -

Me too. I'm trying to find time to write an article about it, but in the meantime, ask any artist who has worked with MINDstyle. I've found most to be quite open to talking about it. For instance, Sket One and SKWAK.
-

It would make an interesting article! I wonder what they will say? It may be hard for the toy producers to write up a contract for correct payment? Especially considering they are bearing all the risk!
But my approach is from a product design background. Many designers work on products that don't sell but then you get one that sells like mad. Its great for portfolio (if the company lets you use it) but you were only paid an hourly rate (and/or lump sum) and the company is making millions off of a product you designed as they did all the extra legwork.
Yet as a toy, you are directly selling it for art,you would think the payment would be something like this: (A lump sum upfront) + (% royalties) + (Correct exposure, such as artists name on box)
Who knows, looking forward to your article when you do it (check out some product designer horror stories too :P) -

OMG Mindstyle is my favorite toy maker. I love their toy quality and the boxes that toys come in are amazing and high quality. I haven't heard of this shadi-ness though I can tell you, that I emailed Skwak a year ago to ask if he had any of the Maniac colorways and he emailed me back to say no, but if I ever found them, he'd like one. So apparently he didn't get his artists proofs.
I just bought the black/black and the black/blue off ebay for 29.95 SCORE. I have ALL Skwaks stuffz. :) -

More info re: my post above. I talked to Skwak via email. He told me he never authorized the release of any of the Maniac Colorways (not blue, not black, not red). And he never got any proofs or any of the productions. Tsk. Tsk. Mindstyle. Tsk. Tsk.

Sorry Helly,
Not right now I moved a year ago and finally got a shelf up to take my figures out. Noticed I no longer wanted some of these, but still keeping the Sony's.
