You actually want a Marty, Oli. Duh. ;)

Anyone have any idea how big these are? From that Fort photo of the Pollen Kaiser on PK's Flickr, it looks like the Killer is about 5" tall-ish. Anyone know for sure?

The Randall type guy is Marty the Magician, Randall's cousin. :)

Sorry guys we've been working so hard.
The Bwana/T9G show is over the top amazing sooooooo many gems it's been hard for me to focus. The show and even some of the custom toys keep changing before my eyes. Wonderfully magical mash-ups from both T9G and Bwana. Dozens of custom one offs from both of them. Vinyl toys covered in stuffed toy fur that are separate toys unto themselves, toys inside of toys inside of other toys, toys with three heads, four arms, six eyes. Big stuffed Muppet-like creatures with crowns on their heads, toys with skeletons on the inside, toys with skeletons on the outsides, toys in every color of the rainbow plus colors you have never seen. Whirlpools of sand with creatures from the sky, the sea, the forest. Handmade booklets and paintings and drawings.Be patient, more shall be revealed. I need to get some sleep. It's a long day tomorrow. :)

Soooooo close, but sooooo far away ;(

Congratulations to those of you who can attend! It sounds (& LOOKS) like it's going to be one hell of a show! Hopefully you'll leave some leftovers for us online store folks ;)

thanks for all of the photos alan. this is a show that i really wish i could have attended, or had at least tried a little hard to line up someone to grab a piece or 2 for me. hoping some gems make it online (and does anyone know if TAG stuff generally goes up night-of-show or at a later date?).

some favorites:

My mind is totally blown!

I saw the show a couple of times, once this morning and again at night, and T9G/Bwana collaborations killed it. I can't wait to go back and see it while it's still up. Besides the toys, there is some great OG Art on the walls, and an awesome mural. It was great seeing Bwana, the LASK'ers, Maddie, David & Megan, Deb and Mathew and everyone else. Thank you Alan! Thank you TAG, Connell, Bwana/T9G for bringing this to LA this weekend.

Really nice work! I just saw the older Randalls for the first time the other day on Rotocasted and thought that they looked pretty unique.

I'm a little clueless though; Are these very limited run art pieces, or are they going to be a larger run toy through Gargamel or someone?

I love both that Randall and the Killer (or whatever their new names are)... Any chance of picking up the two online? Will these be distributed or are they a TAG exclusive? Thanks in advance for any help, these are truly awesome toys.

"This concept extends to production as well, as “TxB” marks the debut of the three unique vinyl figures co-designed by Bwana and T9G (who also sculpted) and produced by Toy Art Gallery!"

they should be available for sale on-line.

^ i've been trying to get release info out of bwana & connell for a little while now, but i think they've been too busy to respond. either that or i've been too much of a nag.

i've been checking TAG several times a day in anticipation of any show or production piece becoming available, but expect that with the holiday that there might not be anything up for awhile still.

if anyone can shed any light on this, it'd be much appreciated!

Things MAY go up later tonight. People are working on it and it is a holiday. There are still lot of different items available which need to be processed. I do not know how many of the pink sets (Killer/Globby and Marty the Magician) will be going up online. Just keep checking in later in the day. If I hear anything else I will let you know asap. Please do not call the store and try to order and pay over the phone. We are not able to process phone orders.

Thanks A bunch. Show was really fun. Yes, mural went up in about 6 hours. i had a helper Alex chiu who is an amazing artist. I think all the goodies that are left (that isn't 2-d art or the new issue of "Sleep it off") is now online. I'll have the very first little batch of marty the magician (randall's cousin. Think- Bullwinkle when he tries to do magic), Killer, and globby customs available tomorrow at noon on my site.
The Next production release of the gang (I think) will be a painted and higher run.
