If anyone has noticed, Vinyl Pulse gave me credit for the custom DUKOWASHI in the upcomming S7 Monster Mash custom show. I just wanted to set the record straight, I did NOT do this custom! I don't know who did but they did a nice job ! I don't have any customs in this show, I did not even know about this show. Hopefully VP will correct THIER mistake soon. I just wanted to make sure no one thought I was trying to take some credit for something I did NOT do. BIG thanks to Lash for bringing this to my attention. Kudos to the unkown artist too.

Your not in the show ??? !!!!!! Who else from SB besides Paul Kaiju me are in this ??? This is a shame... I really wish you had a fig for this.
from the email announcement.... Not to be outdone, we present a collection of custom figures from the Super7 friends and family kaiju support network. Heavy hitters Paul Kaiju, Kathie Olivas, Bwana Spoons, Koji Harmon, Kyoka Ikeda, Brian Flynn, Leecifer, Bob Conge, Mutant Massacer, Lash, Hiro Hayashi, Joe Huerta, Josh Herbolsheimer and more rub elbows and swap paint with Skullbrain.org regulars and SF locals for a fun filled evening of colorful vinyl chaos.
Just checked my email and saw that Its weird, the post here about the show and on vinylpulse leaves out me, Bob Conge and Mutant Massacer.
hey guys, i apologize for these errors and oversights. leaving people out was certainly not our intention. I sent the same press release including all the names of everyone involved out to all of our promotion folks. I think these are just a couple unfortunate, but simple mistakes that Im working on getting corrected as soon as possible.
Thanks for the info Josh, mistakes happen ! I'm sure the show will be great ,to everyone attending have a GREAT time Best alway's - SHAPE
sorry to hear this Howard. You're customs are definitely one of the boards best. I'm not in the show either, ...although my figures are.
Thats Mutant Massacre not cer , just incase anyone cared.Lamour technically is in the show, as a part of Mutant Massacre, he sculpted the rad Bohdi figures that we will have for sale at the show.
great news!!! i was shocked to see the companion and read s.o. from this board did it. not only it shows bad taste but also a total misunderstanding of kaws works.
Looks like it's going to be another dope show. I disagree with the bag on KO/BP custom Companion. I think their use of monsters and ghosts is right inline with Kaws and the theme of the show. I've seen a lot of their customs in person and I'm willing to bet dollars to doughnuts this one looks amazing.
That companion is awesome! I don't think Kaws really cares. Then again I might be talking out of my ass.
bad taste? i dont understand what you mean, there. I like this piece, although I agree it doesnt look like something Kaws would have done. Its very well done, and uses the piece in an interesting way, i think. just my few cents.
i see kaws´s 5YL as art, so imo customizing it might be ok if its done in a respectful way showing u know what u have in hands there like the kimpson one from motorbot, awesome piece. she seems to be talented and a ghostland custom by her may look pretty cool but i can hardly see how her surrealistic style and themes fits together with kaws pop art. as its a rare figure, for the toy ethic part silent killer sums it up perfectly for me in the other thread: ...sure, just an opinion, maybe both of us totally wrong here.
