Very artsy display/Box from Blobpus' site ... check the SF45-Dokugan-paint/patina DX insert.

proof positive that the Blobpus guys are more genius than toy-designer. wonder how much this masterpiece will be selling for?!

I think this is for a show TT is having in April, could be wrong though...

..

Arrrrrrhhhhhhhh!

this crazy contraption is seriously nice...!!!

it's a funny thought to wonder if Cornell had collected Kaiju what he would have done with it in his boxes...

I'm sure he would have done something amazing...

Not exactly, but you may find interesting as well.

"The Affair" ( The temptation of Saint Mickey ) from an on-going series of boxes I've been working on since 2003.

Enjoy,

Seeing that body and arm, I wonder if we're gonna see a DX version of TLK or Cyclopas before a DX Dokugan. (So long as it's 'before' and not 'instead of' ... )

Here's the (machine-translation of the) site's accompanying text. If anyone who can read Japanese can provide a 'real' translation, I'd love to know, and also - Does 'February 17 to 20 NYCC mail personalized period' mean there's some mail-order period open, for ordering something now?

"February 17 to 20
NEW YORK TOY FA IR mail personalized period
Warehouse space at the TOYTOKYO
An artist painting in terms of goods (to be paid), a custom-finished FIGYU,
Figures limited, and limited lithograph
Current events and exhibits and sales of Koto.
This is the reason of making BLOBPUS from the sidelines.

Speaking Custom
From Mr. toybotstudios
"Congratulations on the third anniversary! BLOBPUS custom figures showing his picture so there."
Announcements received and the effort is job-piece.
The custom of the convention also BLOBPUS do?"

haha. I didnt' understand the translation engine myself so I asked Alice to translate it for me:

カスタムといえば
Custom

From toybotstudios

「3周年おめでとう！BLOBPUSのカスタムフィギュアの画像載せたのでみてね。」
Congratulations on 3 years! Please look at BLOBPUS custom figures pictures.

とお知らせいただきました、力作ぞろいですなぁ。
Received the above message. I looked at them. Great work!

そのうちBLOBPUSカスタム大会でもやろうかな。
Maybe I should hold a Blobpus Custom competition one day.

i'm confused. so you made this?

sorry.....

No, I didn't make it. He was making two comments in the same blog post. One about his custom for the Toy Tokyo show in April and another on my Blobpus customs and 3rd Anni congrats.......

Hah! Good call - that's exactly what I thought of when I saw this. Cornell's stuff is so unlike anything else, especially when you realize the depth of meaning behind it.

congrats to you Kirkland but am I the only one curious about this Toy Tokyo show because this piece is brilliant.

maybe Lorne can elaborate on the upcoming Custom Kaiju Show at Toy Tokyo in April.

As of right now, there is nothing to elaborate on...BUT as soon as there is an announcement to be made, I'll be making it...making a premature announcement of anything would be a mistake...

The box is amazing...and think the Cornell comparison is def. a good one...

Cornell meets Kaiju...very cool idea. It would be cool to see a few pieces done up like this...
