Max Toy Co Pocket Captain Maxx Leave a comment
The Max Toy pocket figures were sculpted by Gargamel way back when and predate the minis by a few years. There’s a Maxx and a Xam released in clear red vinyl as either keychains or necklace charms, and the sculpts are alright, but really blown away by the new mini line. I decided to paint up my pockets and use them as zipper-charms on my backpack!

Gargamel Mini Mightin- Rolok Kolors 1 comment
Gargamel mini based on a bootleg kaiju sculpt. Painted featuring Monster Kolor ‘Rolok’ colors as a test piece, which dry flat and have some more ‘stuff’ in them, so they don’t need sealer. The claws and details were painted with other MK colors and glossed, and the shiny and matte effect looks really neat on this guy.

This mini sculpt is based on the very rare vintage bootleg fullsize sculpt of one of the Somg Monster forms. I love the proportions and the stance, and the figure has some great texture.

Double cast clear pink over GID, clear head, freehand sprays on the outer head, and a light up feature. This guy does it all.
Dead Pre$idents Cosmic Squadron Leave a comment
I’ve been messing around with this guy since I bought him at NYCC, so I wanted to give him some proper coverage. Dead Presidents (Matt Walker) designed a neat vintage style spaceman as a way to combine his love of vinyl toys, tin rayguns, and classic-ey spacemen. The design by Matt was sculpted by Sunguts, a Japanese vinyl designer known for solid sculpts and cute designs, and the result here is fantastic. The Cosmic Squadron has been heating up Japan, and a proper US launch is on the near horizon.
I love the heroic fight figure proportions. The Cosmic Squadron stands about six inches tall with the helmet on, and all the releases so far have been on crystal clear Japanese vinyl.
Neo Eyezon Mark Nagata X Prometheum5 Collab! 1 comment
Hi all,
Mark posted a photo, on the Max Toy Co site so I guess I can now, too. Over the summer, Mark asked me if I was interested in doing a run of Neo Eyezons, to which I could not have said ‘yes’ more excitedly! More details are forthcoming, but I painted my figures a couple weeks back and shipped them to Mark. They will be sold as a two-pack with a Neo Eyezon by Mark, and that’s all I can say for now. Here’s a couple photos of the beasts, though. This project got to act as sort of the debut for Monster Kolor’s Hawaii Kolor set, which comes with trial-size bottles of great colors and a toy for $40, and is the perfect kit for anyone who’s been thinking about trying to paint toys, or airbrush in general! I based the colors for my Neo Eyezons on the Bullmark Hawaii King Ghidorah, since I love green! 😀 Here’s a couple shots before they shipped off to Mark.
While I was painting these guys, I also whipped up this little guy using the colors for myself, since all the Eyezons went off in a box to Mark:

Got some new toys with some unbelievable paint.
Max Toy Co mini Xam painted by Mark Nagata.
Accompanied by an unpainted white mini Maxx that is just gorgeous!
I also purchased this mind-blowing Toygraph Death Climax UFO Monster Gunhead in yummy flesh vinyl painted by the master, Dead Presidents. Walker pulled out all the stops, and his crazy colors and Monster Kolor paint really shine on this massive beast.
The Guhead is supposed to terrorize Toygraph’s Space Troopers, but Dead Presidents’s new Cosmic Squadron troopers do everything the Space Troopers set out to do better, bigger, and much prettier.
No-mad escapes from the beast’s clutches, lines up the shot his life depends on, and holds his breath!

Just a couple new toy shots… Charactics’ excellent Walder mini, complete with fully painted guts, brain, and removable head. All in Microman size!
