This is my new sculpt that I’m working on. The first painted versions will be available at my next gallery show in Chicago.

Some progress shots of the making of Sookie La La who may be here as early as next week.

Check out the sculpt for my new toy Sookie La La which is about to be molded. I haven’t 100% figured out the release details, but if the molding goes well, he will be available by the end of the month. Though he’s been through quite an evolution, Mr. La La was the first character I developed under Hello, Brute back in 2005. He was made into a few different plush forms in 2006, and now he’s making his debut in resin. Keep your eyes peeled for more details in the next week.

My custom Hoophy, a collaboration with Shin Tanaka, is revealed today! It’s a paper toy that you can print at home and assemble yourself. Other artists for Hoophy include David Flores, Superdeux, David Horvath (Uglydolls), Skwak, Jon Burgerman, and Travis Lampe. Many thanks to Shin to inviting me to participate in this awesome series!

Here is the second custom that will be available on Thursday. Everything is now set up in the shop, and you can check it out by clicking here.

Here’s the current tally for Charlie. Still haven’t decided which one will be the second variant. Might try and squeeze in a few more customs before the release later this week!

Here’s a look at a candidate for the second color variant of Charlie. Gotta get a move on, still planning to release him on Wednesday!

So here is the first look at the completed first variant of Charlie, the new 6″ mini figure. The tentative release date is Wednesday November 25 at 3pm (pacific). There will be another version available and maybe a custom or two. All of the final information will go out in the newsletter in a few days. Hope you like him!

Here is a teeny tiny peek of the new character Pepper I’ve been working on. The sculpt is finished, just needs to be molded. He’s over 9″ tall so everyone cross your fingers I don’t run into any troubles in production. I’ll post full pics once the first cast is done. I’m hoping for a late November / early December release.

Also in the works is the new mini figure (click here to look at the prototype). He’s sitting in a mold as I’m typing this. His cap and hair have been re-sculpted, and I think there will be 2 color variants available for first release. He might be available for sale as soon as next week.

More photos and information coming reaaal soon!
