    Joe's new standard figure! It's like the middle ground between the Kid and Twins. Love that it's still textured, but a little smoother than both aforementioned. Pretty excited for Bam - Bam.

    Mike [ @coma21 ] I just can't believe that you took the time to produce that video, with help even! That sure brightens up my mood.
    Oh and nice choice of purple on those walls. ;):thumbsup:

    Bam-Bam is only about 5", smaller than the original twins a little bigger than the first Cadaver Kid. He is the first of 3 new figures that are similar in size and shape to the original Cadaver Kid. I originally tried to shrink down the cadaver twins with hydroshrink, but the texture was overwhelming at a smaller scale, so I sculpted a new version of the twins that had a closer texture to the original CK.

    My favorite way to release toys has been the marble runs I've been doing through lulubell with the original figs. Small and easy to ship, affordable, and large quantities so anyone who really tries is likely to score or find one on the secondary market for close to retail. With these 3 new figures I'm refreshing the line of afordable figs that will get the marble treatment, and be distributed through Lulubell. And speaking of marbles, more marbles cadaver kids, mecha brain kids and Usir kids are on the way to Lulubell now and there will be a new sale for those soon.

    Pretty amped about all the new stuff joe! Really interested in seeing the new cadaver twins line up and size. I just recently came into a long time want twin so I'll be posting a pic up here soon but man you are really slamming out new stuff it's hard to keep up but that's only a good thing for you in general. The lulu releases are amazing and I'm sure I speak for a ton of us by saying THANK YOU for doing releases in a way it's more accessible to everyone and at a great price. I'm sure the hype boys and those only looking for super rare or one offs might have the only issue with this style of release but for the majority here we are just happy to add new stuff to our collections. For me it's a double whammy with Dennis and Luke pulling your vinyl. Stoked for the future of splurrt and Secretoy. And BAM BAM!

    It's unfortunate that the Twins couldn't have been shrunken down to what was preferred, but out of the dark clouds came the silver lining that is Bam - Bam. Being that I'm an obvious freak for the Cinema Monster, I love that this new sculpt carries the three eyes, two noses and one mouth with it. The expression is both malicious and playful in its grin. I find a great balance between the Kid and Twins in Bam - Bam.

    As Eric already stated, the releases through Lulu have been pretty amazing. Not only are you consistently releasing new sculpts, but these marbles have been the nicest, fairest way to get as many of your toys into as many hands as possible.

    Yeah, i wish i could stop making stuff... I guess everyone who makes toys kind of has a focus, or multiple. Some are primarily painters, some art directors. My love is sculpting, so I always find myself having to pick up clay. Everytime I say that's it for a while, nothing new, but within a month i'm kneading clay.
    The original twins were infuluenced by the Maba zombie conjoined twin. This head was really influenced by it, hence the name, it's almost a palindrome or paragram of Maba.

    The influence of the Maba Zombie definitely shows, but has your signature flick of the wrist in your sculpting. What I do like about Maba Twins, is, they look like they're in agonizing pain, whereas Bam - Bam looks more menacing, which is also enjoyable.

    I think it's great you're constantly sculpting. Keeps your library open and expansive, giving you the option to revisit and play with so many choices for satiating your artistic tastes, while feeding hungry fans. I'm constantly lookin' into my case and thinking, "I hope we see one of these again soon", which we usually do.

    As mentioned before. Finally got my hands on the twins first release. Normally I'm not a fan of dark colored vinyl and paint applications but these have been a want of mine from the start. The first time I saw the twins I was hooked. Such a crazy awesome sculpt.

    I did want to comment on Bam Bam here. This toy makes me very happy. I remember when the twin was released beIng excited but also realizing I was excited for different reasons then previous splurrt releases. I enjoyed the figure and I liked the darker more visceral tone but I could tell it didn't fit the narrative for me of the original CK. It was less playful gross out and more gross. Which as an adult that enjoys all the evil things life has to offer I can get behind that. But Bam Bam though he has that CK splurrtverse feel. It's creepy but inviting. I can't wait to collect these.

    ^^You and I are on the same page, i anxiously await the coming of the Arch Usir. But with one of the mold factories closure the delays are terrible.
    But I appreciate not everyone feels the same way. The next 2 figures will be cute little guys.

    Edit: Is the Arch Usir prototype not in this thead? Well here it is, wax is done and its awaiting joints and molds. Hopefully will be in vinyl soon.

    I love this guy! But you already know that Joe. The Usir has always held a neck and neck race with the kid in my heart. I am excited to see what morbid ass paint jobs can be put on it.
