 Re: Might have to get me some McGoodness I heard that glitter ruins the molds. So this may mean the end of the run.

Marmit's been doing TONS of glitter stuff that looks very similar to this, and a lot of it on first runs with new molds. I could be wrong, but I really don't see how mixing glitter with the vinyl would wreck a cast metal mold unless there was some kind of chemical reaction.

Re: Might have to get me some McGoodness i like the og ron english mcsupersize mes. The quality on the bigger ones are good while the minis not so good. I was tricked though.
one was listed on TT as rainbow mcsupersize me with no picture at the time and i thought it would be a supersize me multicolor like his crazy psychadelic paintings but it ended up being a rainbow (multicolor) glitter version. I am not a fan of the glitter versions. I bought it quick thinking it might sell quick because they only had a few up at the time.......

I would think the same thing, can someone shed some more light on this matter ?

Re: Might have to get me some McGoodness I guess I could have been a bit more descriptive. I think it was Brain who was telling me this. Regular glitter sticks to the mold thus ruining it. So it was used as a last ditch effort. I do remember him saying thought that Kiyoka came up with an ingenious system of adding metal flecks. The metal doesn't stick to the sides.

Re: Might have to get me some McGoodness Ron rules!
Love these guys. These glitter versions are kind of loud, obnoxious and kitschy - which in small numbers make a nice addition to my shelves. They are one of teh few pieces of Chinese produced vinyl I actively collect.
I have to agree with an earlier comment that his toys don't come across anywhere near as well as his art, plus in the case of McSupersized I wish these guys had articulated arms that still captured the essence of teh original painting.
