    David, those are some super fun photos! Loving Surnia as well, he's a perfect size companion to the Otus, and has such fun details!

    Absolutely great character. Mine got here last week after a mishap where I forgot to have it sent to my home instead of work which is closed due to the pandemic, minor inconvenience.

    Better late than never.
    @evom / OWL's latest creation is yet another shining example of toys done right.
    As like Otus, Surnia exudes the perfect aura of mystery, hinting to a backstory one can't help but ponder upon beholding...

    (and yes, the toe beans & tail were a nice touch ;))

    Backed 100%
    Already prepared to do unholy things for such a colorway (this applies to any/all black cat Surnia's that may come down the pike)...

    Wonderful new sculpt, Brent. Completely classic owl stylings. Subtle, but so much detail too. You can really tell you put a lot of time into getting him just right. Reminds me of my grandfather's place. I dig it!

    The only owl toy I own is Lucky by Maruhachi Gangu, and this would very much be a welcome companion! If I may, what’s the size of this one?

    thanks guys! The new micro is part of Otus' story but I'd rather leave it up for interpretation.
    It's about 1.5" tall.

    Love this little micro owl! Will you be releasing it as a lottery, on Instagram, or on a website??
    I've also been away from the toy scene for a while and absolutely love the Otus toy and would love to get one, but haven't seen any go up for sale (understandably, since they are amazing toys!). Do you plan on releasing another Otus in the near future?
    Or... or do you have any extras lying around? (Doubtful, but I figure I can always ask ;) )

    Love these toys and that Surnia is a well! I'm definitely a cat and owl person, and I love space exploration, so all of these resonate with me quite well! <3

    The whole Owltoy line has proven to be incredibly popular, and it's a testament to Brent's work that it is so. As far as I know no release info for this little guy has been posted yet, but definitely stay tuned here and on IG. As with anything, patience for the long game pays off. There are always new and exciting toys to come.

    @EtR_Wolf Really glad you like my stuff!!
    I dont really have a timeline for the next Otus. I have alot going on lately, so I can't do as much as I'd like to at the moment.. I'm hoping to release the micro owl fairly soon though by shopdrop. I'll give some headsup on here and IG before hand.

    @evom For sure! Your toys hit all of the marks of what I really like in toys and Subject matter. I will most definitely keep watch here or on IG for info on when the drop will be for that little owl, thanks!
    And no worries on the Otus. You do what you need to do and take care of what you need to take care of. Hopefully you'll make another run sometime in the future of the Otus, and hopefully I'll be around the toy scene this time to snag one! ;) Keep up the amazing work, and I'm really excited to see what else comes from your line of toys. :D <3

    He’s a really great guy this one, especially in that it’s extending the storyline. Had to miss out on the cat due to some corona finance problems, but can’t miss out on this guy. I thought I had a backstory down until I saw the latest IG post. That there up a lot of questions

    Now is this little guy the one taking over the spaceman. No ears on Otus. But otus is Latin for a family of small eared owls. So all my theories are out of the window. I’m too invested aren’t I....it’s LOST all over again.

    Wondering if I could post my collection or would that be too annoying?

    Yes, post it up! Wouldn’t be annoying at all, that’s what this place is for.

    Belated welcome to the forum @xHikix. For future reference, images should ideally be uploaded to an image hosting site (e.g. Imgur, flickr, Instagram, etc.) and then shared here via the appropriate links. This saves them from being attachments hosted on the SB server, but more importantly, allows them to be viewable directly to people on the forum within your post(s). You can also keep them within a single post as well that way.
