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. Sign up for the toy release updates newsletter (you can do it on this page) to be notified as soon as I know!
More photos and information coming reaaal soon!

I have a new interview at Working in the Third Dimension, a new blog by esteemed sculptor & illustrator Liz Lomax. The blog features artists that work in 3D, many of whom work with polymer clay (the clay I use to sculpt my characters). If you’re mainly a fan of the “artist toy” genre (or whatever we’re calling it now), this blog will quite possibly have a lot of work you haven’t seen before, so it’s definitely worth checking out. Click here for a direct link to the interview. Many thanks to Liz for the feature!
I finished my custom Billy for the show held by Blamo Toys at Million Fishes Gallery in San Francisco. This guy is all wood, except for his glasses which are hand cast resin. He’ll be available for purchase at the show and also at DCon in Pasadena. Check the flyer images below for more info!
Here is a little somethin that’s been in the works for several weeks. This is just a rough prototype, but I think this guy will be the next Brute platform figure to be released. I’m gonna make a few refinements then re-cast him next month. He’s around 5″ tall, so he will be another “mini” (compared to the other sculpts, at least). Fingers crossed that everything goes well.
Release date:
Wednesday Oct 14th (@ 3:00pm pacific) – Friday Oct 16th (@ 11:59pm pacific)
By popular demand, My Little Arpie is back for one final round! He hasn’t been available to the public in over a year. There are only a few available of the clear version. The opaque version will be up for pre-sales for a maximum 3 days. They will be made to order, and you can pick your color from the options in the shop. This is the last mold I will make of this sculpt of the Arpie. So once my mold breaks, he will no longer be available. First come, first served (Though e-cheques fall to the bottom of the list, sorry!)
Because these are made to order, please allow at least 3 weeks for your toy to be made. I finish them as quickly as possible, but the process is time-consuming, so please be patient.
clear version | opaque version
Hugs,
Jon Knox
