IWG Titus Plush Treasure Hunt

Print

Ahoy matey.  If it’s treasure you seek you’ve come to the right place.  The rowdy bunch at Rocketworld have put their conniving heads together and come up with a lil Treasure Hunt.  The booty ?  The new Titus Plush.  Win it before you can buy it.

A map ?  Not likely.  But we can tell you this hunt is all about the riddles and that’s there a specific order you need to follow, lest we make you walk the plank.  Check the pretty lil’ picture above for the starting point.

Our piece of the riddle lies just beyond the jump.  Best of luck you land lubber.

Seen: Peekaboo Monster – The Birds OG Drop

1-DSC_0980

Peekaboo dropped the anticipated OG colorway of his ‘The Birds’ wall-mount resin figure this past Friday (11.6) at Ronin Gallery in Echo Park.  Limited to 25 pieces, the OG colorway created in conjunction with AntiKillers is available for $150 (+ $35 shipping).  Vinyl Pulse made the trip out to catch the release event.

Demonstrating his skills, Peekaboo customized a blank Birds figure on the spot.  Finished in well under two hours, the bright green and purple one-off custom is as you can see after the jump,  pretty sweet. One lucky grand-prize winner of the evening’s raffle ($10 to enter) went home with the custom! 

In addition to ‘The Birds’, Peekaboo has a quite few other things going on including his Three Apples Hello Kitty print which he signed on Friday and dropped on Saturday @ Royal/T.

8” Bic Buddy Revealed

 DSC03472

Bic Buddy is going big time.  Bic Plastics will soon unleash an 8" version of Marka27’s urban platform figure -- a big brother to the blind-box minis released this summer. Here’s the very first look at the brand-new larger Bic Buddy, roaming the streets of Brooklyn as captured by Photographer Moses Mitchell.  We’ve also got a video featuring the 8” DIY + several of the artist series minis in and around Brooklyn – check it out below.

To kick off the introduction of the 8” DIY Bic Buddy, Bic Plastics will tap top-flight artists to show off their skills with  two custom shows in February ‘10 – one in  LA and  one in NYC, with a roster of 30+ artists for each event.

With the introduction of this new larger size, Bic Buddy steps up from mini-fig to full-fledged designer toy platform.  The  8” sculpt looks strong – digging the heavy-duty wings, the thickness works well.  Keep watching Vinyl Pulse for more on the 8” Bic Buddy.
