Rex PRE-ORDER update Full Paint Rexx experienced another delay as you probably know. They did not start to ship out as we hoped, and we sincerely apologize for yet another delay. We attempt to provide the best information that we can, but this information often changes, especially on larger & more complex pieces such as Rexx. We thank all who ordered for your wonderful kindness and patience with this. We are hoping to start shipping out end of May early June now. We cannot wait for you to get your hands on them just as much as you! Nope, almost forgotten i've got this on pre-order

Re: James Groman Rotten Rex.
Anyone have any information about the "King Korpse" figure Groman sculpted for InstincToy?
What I read said it would be a sequel to Rotten Rexx at about a foot tall and the sketch looked like a rotted out version of king kong. I am a huge fan of his work but I've never grabbed anything from that company before as far as I know.

Heard that lulubell is having trouble making those Rotten Rexx. So, instead of contact James Groman through lulubell, INSTINCTOY contact James Groman directly and came up with the idea of making the "King Korpse" BTW, hope Amy can start contact us with good news, instead of "They are supposed to start shipping in the next few weeks."

Re: James Groman Rotten Rex.
[Image pulled from Spanky Stokes] I'll have to see it once completed, but based on the design, it just doesn't do it for me the way Rotten Rex did. Though I'm definitely intrigued by the "liquid eroded heart".

Re: James Groman Rotten Rex.
I liked the Instinctoy liquid sculpts, but lost a lot of respect in the company after they sculpted their vincent figure on top of the HXS Tyranosaurus. I'm just guessing this will be a massive figure, I wonder if Groman will sculpt it himself like Rotten Rex. But I think Chinese production will be much better for an oversized figure like this and will be much more reliable.

A friend and board member here called them out on it, and they admitted to it. I don't think it was ever blogged about or made public knowledge by them.

Re: James Groman Rotten Rex.
Also, I always felt Instinctoy's bear toy was a rip off of T9G - they even copied his Logo onto the backside of the figure. But that never seemed to bother anyone, either . . .

Caption says it is hand sculpted by James and I read elsewhere it's a foot tall so it does look to be massive. Had no idea about the HXS thing. That is a pretty outrageous thing to do.

Re: James Groman Rotten Rex.
Quote: Vinyl is up. My deepest and sincerest apologies for all the late Rexx orders. It's taken me way way too long. I appreciate our fans and customers. You all allow me to do what I do. This past year has been a rough one but I feel there's light at the end of the tunnel. I finally feel hopeful and excited. Thank you all for the love and support. Come hell or high water I'm going to finish this outstanding Rexx order and also include this triceratops head as thank you for your gargantuan patience. Thank you @luluamy for keeping this boat floating. Thank you @jgroman60 for changing me beyond belief. Thank you @lulubellyuki for all your hard work on this wax. And lastly thank you to everyone that has ever bought anything from us, you all help support a rag tag bunch of misfits. instagram.com/p/-TqyPCkOfd

Re: James Groman Rotten Rex.
Agreed. This new head was on display back in NYCC 2014 and it was incredible (and also a big chunk of resin).
Do you think this will come painted as well?
