Post More Toy ID (Challenge Round)
My last thread was pretty successful, so I thought I'd try it again.

First one:

Bought this one from a father & son team at NYCC a couple years back. I'm pretty sure the son designed it, even though he was just a kid. Really want to find the name so I can give them proper credit on IG.

Second one:

I'm beginning to think this toy is unidentifiable. Someone I knew a long time ago brought this back from Paris in either 1999 or 2000. There was a second one, a dragon-esque creature, that my dog chewed up when he first got him that I got rid of. No identifiable markings, and I've absolutely scoured the internet for any additional info. Anyway, I think if any site on the internet can ID it, it's this one.

Could the first one have been created by TheGodBeast? Does the name ring a bell?

I've never seen this design, but I know Marty (TGB) had produced a few resin designs by one of his sons. The name Gloops comes to mind. That was about five or so years ago now.

Seeing how neither of these seem to be soft vinyl, we might not be the best place to ask about them...
That being said, I guess the first one is some resin piece?
and the second looks just like some shitty squishy toy from a dollar store (judging by the seam running along the length of it).

Good suggestion. I emailed him, but apparently he's never seen it before.

Ah, the youngest (to my knowledge) resin-slinger! Cute kid, though I think right now he's going through the "awkward growing spurt" stage of his life. We've all been there... :lol:

I remember years ago at NYCC, there was some like 8yr old kid with a booth of resin toys. Googled him, and realized I met him a few months ago @ Suburban Vinyl
