Blamo

Cliff created this one of a kind custom for Blamo Toys Nimbus custom show.  It's a larger version of the mini "G.L. Hutton" sculpted in epoxy on top of the wooden figure and painted with lots of fleshy,veiny, chubby goodness.

It can be purchased over HERE.

MH Sketchy Cards in Suckpax2

We contributed some sketch cards to the Sucklord's second series of SUCKPAX! See if you can catch 'em all at the 1st Annual Second Ave Trading Card Show in New Yawk. More info here.

Here's a sneak of some/most of my cards:

PKxMH

So these guys snuck into Paul Kaiju's store under the radar and I think were gone pretty quickly.  They are
amazing and congrats to whomever score them. Pics via Vinyl Pulse.

Toxic Catalyst was awesome!

So we survived curating the Toxic Catalyst show, it was a awe inspiring showing of some well established resin artists as well as some you've probably never heard of.  Everyone delivered some of their best work yet and it was a blast displaying all the resin goodness together in one place.  The show should be up at the old Super 7 store for a few more weeks so check it out.  If you can't make it to Japantown here's some thorough coverage and the figures are up in the Super 7 webstore.

Seen for the first time, our brand new set of minis...Transformutations!

They are (L to R) Vic Smelt, Woolson Quaid, G. L. Hutton

We can't thank Super 7 enough for hosting such a spectacular amassing of artists and we will hopefully do it again in the future.

Toxic Catalyst!

You may have seen this already, but here it is again! A few months ago, Super7 asked to curate a resin group show, and we happily obliged! We set out to invite the best and brightest of the resin toy designers, from the OGs like Le Merde and Bob Conge and Sucklord to guys who are maybe just dipping their toes into the resin pool, but whose work really stands out. We're extremely excited by the mountain of amazing work that keeps pouring in and it's amazing to see how much the "scene" has grown. Come on out to the OLD Super7 location (typo on the card) August 21 to hang out with us and talk shop!

Special Victims Unit @ Grasshut

Our opening at Grasshut was a success!  Here are a few pics of the show and the pieces are available at the Grasshut shop.  If anyone is in Portland OR in the next month you can go check them out at Grasshut which is located inside Floating World Comics 20 NW 5th Ave. #101 Portland, OR 97209 .
For the show, we created 2 colorways called "Black Hole Fishing Lure" and "Summer Salad"... I think you can figure out which is which.

SDCC nonsense

MH interview with Toybot Studios @ SDCC '10, Thanks Kirkland!!!

We were all up in the Munky King After party

MONSTREHERO minishow at Grasshut this Thursday!

We're having a sweet little mini-show at Grasshut (Portland, OR) opening this Thurdsay, August 5th from 6-9 pm. The theme is "all victims all the time", so expect a nice smattering of our unfortunate fivesome!

Post SDCC recovery post

So we survived another grueling week of Comic Con.  It was great seeing everyone again and meeting new people in the toys scene.  We would like to send an especially big THANKS to the legendary Paul Kaiju for being our gracious host for the week and also Don of Fig-Lab, Matt from Onell, and Jesse of Rawshark for letting us participate in the Global Figure Symposium 2010.
One of our most exciting projects for the con was a collaboration with Real x Head, If you weren't able to pick one up there will be more releases in the future so keep an eye out.
All MH product that didn't sell at the con is up in the shop right now.
Some thorough coverage of our event can be found @:

If you don't already frequent those sites, shame on you.

Not-so-sneaky Peak

Ok, so it's the same toy from before, but now it's de-blurred. Still just a test shot, not sure what direction we're going in for the first release. We'll have a few at SDCC for sure though, along with kind of a lot of other new stuff.

Sneek peek

Newest sculpt by Sean. Not ready for a full reveal just yet, but I'm super-psyched with how he came out! Tons of potential with this guy.

MH immortalized in the wax pack
