I have always loved Mr. Bunny, but I am a big fan of JLED's work. Can't wait for the Snow Bunny release!

I had to read about it in every d con thread multiple times on the KR boards, people were sweating this fig, hard.
While I like the composition and colors, I guess this is just another fig I don't understand the hype behind. Also, 600 & 700 on eBay and 1500 for a signed one.. that also is what really turns me away from figs. -

I've never dug Ledbetter either, but he's got a huge loyal fanbase, and everyone says he's a nice guy. So I'm going to assume it's my fault for not getting it.

im starting to think im too picky ;)
although i do applaud him for the color execution on this, that is the one thing that i think really makes this one stick out.

dumb question, if you buy these are you supposed to open them?
-

Never!! Its Art! The card is better than the figure!
Seriously though, they come off pretty easy, so I guess its personal preference. There just on with a little bit of cello-tape. -

I wish that carded Art figures like this had a slide in/out front, so that you could take them out without damaging the card. Sucklord should get on that shit.

thanks for that info dan! i was thinking about picking up the 10 d con buff mini flavors but wasnt sure if things packaged like this should be opened or not (and also dont have any money).. although i still would have opened it up either way, i think this would look super weird with a bunch of other opened up figs..
but IMO, i think the box or packaging is about as worthless as the paper/carboard its made from, all i really care about is the figure/toy. (i think its funny when people get all worked up over a box/packing) -

moody doom,
great idea, seen it on a few thinks packaged like this before, makes you wonder why you dont see it a lot? maybe they just dont want you openeing it at all.
did you open yours? -

Do not try and remove the art. That's impossible. Instead, only try to realize the truth: there is no art.
-

to art or not to art that is the question

@bbxx2334 - no way in hell i'm opening this one. : )
For me, ice cream toys can only be served with a good dose of titties and heavy metal.
losing the packaging would subtract all the wonderful buffness from this piece.
There's no right or wrong though man. Whatever impulse is strongest (to open to not open) just go with it and enjoy. -

i like the pictures and text on the background cardboard more than i like these figures themselfs... so i wont be buying any.. they just look really weird and kinda unoriginal to me, i just wanted to see if people open them or not... i think thats the other reason why i am super turned off by this kinda stuff, you open it to enjoy it for what it is, then it pretty much becomes worthless (in terms of $$$) just because you opened it. thanks for the explanation though!

Actually we should leave the Manufacturer field empty when it's a custom. This is not a production piece!
If you want to see who manufactured the platform for the custom, you can just click on the platform tag and find one of the production pieces.
It's a bit annoying that customs show up when you look for stuff Gargamel has produced. -

Disagree. It's still the same platform/manufacturer no matter who painted it.

Yeah, I'm just going to repeat myself :)
NOT a production toy ergo NO manufacturer.
Makes sense, eh?
Totally agree with you regarding platform.
It's TERRIBLY annoying that customs show up when you look for stuff Gargamel has PRODUCED.
Goes for series as well.
Let's hear what other collectors have to say. :) -

Ok, you two old grumpy naysayers ;) Answer me this one then:
Why did someone at some time choose to seperate customs from production pieces, and hide them in a 'secret' place?
If your illogical reasoning would make any sence ALL 21 000+ toys in our library should be on the front page, right? -

hahahaaa, now i see where all this started from dan! although i do agree if your making a custom, the platform label should be there, you gotta give credit to the person who made the toy first & came up with the idea... because after alll, if the pocket smogun platform was never released, there would never be this custom!
-
11 years ago
... the other reason why it really helps to have the platform label there too is if i see a custom i like/want and have no idea what the platform is, i just go look at the platform and click it and see the production toys, because chances are, i will want those too!
(btw, if you click on a platform and see all the production pieces and customs, it usually isnt hard to tell whats a custom and whats not just by looking at it)

Francis Bacon wrote Hamlet, and actually William Shakespeare painted this:

I think JPK was referring to the other Francis Bacon the British artist popular in the 40's and 50's.

Yeah, as far as I know this one's a small custom series to be sold at an upcoming Grass Hut exhibition these days. I'd choose a cheaper Wool version to make customs of ;)

I don't think this is a custom, but a Grass Hut exclusive release.

Just looked it up, you're right. But since there will only be a few pieces available and they're sprayed by hand I guess, I just referred to them as customs… or something ;-)

I just love the blue and gray gradation wools too...and those are available in Chima's shop...now the usual question/gamble. Do I wait for a stateside release or order direct?

I meant a custom of the platform in general. not specifically this one! So i just called grass hut, which i found out is in a comic shop, and talked to the 'shipping' guy who didnt know anything about these. So i guess we just gotta wait it out! Glad to hear this isnt a one off though.
and do it auryn! shipping for my two formals was only 1500 yen, not too bad seeing as how i used to pay 200+ (usd) just for shipping some somewhat smaller car parts. its the weight that kills everything.
