Pardon my ignorance, is this an official Pus thing, or did someone just do it for kicks?

looks like a custom. I don't think Pus would release something like this but I've been wrong so many times. The linework doesn't look up to par with Pushead's but it is quite clever. I have nothing against (expletive deleted) but then again, I've never owned one to know.

i dont own any of whatever these are, but that doesnt look like custom paint to me, it looks factory. tho it doesnt look quite detaisled(?) enough to actually be pus... then again maybe it is and its just cuz these things are cheap(?)

It looks really cool, but the fact that it looks like pushead and is not pushead blows, thats like spraying one black and putting a bounty hunter sticker on one kinda. Oh wait kubrick already did that..... well you get the idea.
I have to say to I looked through some old posts from back in the day on here, and i must say a TON of people had the unmentionables displayed right next to their top shelf base stuff.

Thank fuck for that . . . I was thinking I was the only one!
it's a killer custom but replicating the Pusmeister on a cute 'n' cuddly Munny just ain't right.

I'd say that it is a well-rendered homage to Pushead. If it is being touted as anything more than that, it does suck, otherwise, a nicely done tribute.
I know that I've seen far worse themes on the munny canvas...

If Pus doesnt like these Munny things....then it is even worse and not a tribute or homage at all to rip his patented style onto a toy canvas blank that he wont touch or be involved with....Im gonna bet Pus isnt down with Dums or Muns....but i very well could be wrong.
I dont think PUS has ever done productiion or customs on those so.......

a tribute is a tribute...unless hawked as the real mccoy, in which case it is forgery and someone should have his/her ass kicked...or sued, whatever...
Surely somebody on here knows Pushead well enough to mention this to him and get an opinion! It'd be interesting to know what the artist thinks of work done in his particularly identifiable style.

I guess others are just totally turned off because its done on a munny!
given it was done on just plain wood or whatever surface, this work might be given a chance---but for me, i like the cococroc, skull pirate, captain, and the kawsxpus, and this?
im not feelin' it...

I totally disagree..
The RxH Franken Chaos was a fine "tribute" to Barom-1/Frankenruge as a *Charactor.....so was Josh's art but when you do tribute to another *Artist in THEIR style AND subject matter on a Dnnny.... its not the same...like I said the dots in the eyes and all....thats not tribute its just a rip......I guess to each their own.
in Graffiti...tributes are done...and some style/character reference is cool especially cause its usually another writer that has died that tribute is being paid to.......but to Ape and step on their style Completely...Taboo.......dead or alive...tribute or not.
Besides this is SkullBrain and its is a Dunnny.......the Only reason its here is cause its got a paint style ripped from Pus...Scary just posted to say...nice work..but wrong for the clear blatant rip
....but I agree it would be interesting to know The Pus's take on this...but I imagine he will curse it then ignore it LOL!

Did the artist say it was a tribute? I dont know Pushead's work that well so to me it looks like any mummy/ghoul type work. How many ways can a mummy be done? I would think they are all a bit simular especialy when on simular platforms.

Did anyone have issues with FK's Bigazzalon as a "tribute" to Gargamel's version of the Zag?

doing a pus custom on a fig like this, shows he didnt get what pus stuff is about. it is very well painted indeed - fine accurate paintjob, but me cant see any style or impression, no flair - no artistic value at all.
hoping im not all wrong & pushead or any other customizer from here did it...

NO! A Pushead My Little Pony would be sick!!! ragged mane, gouged out eye, stub tail, rotten hooves...so much potential!!! I think that I may have just stumbled upon my ticket to the small-scale big time! My Little Zombie Pony!!!
Mount UP!

LOL or maybe some customizer over the "KR side" did it on purpose just to see some folks here get thier tidy whities in a twist.
