Tan-Ki – KiClear Invasion Series

kiclear15

As part of his recently opened Invasion Toys show, Tan-Ki created thirty-nine 8”  KiClear Invasion figures.  Color us impressed.  Each features his 8” clear figure with wondrous colorful inserted objects including toys (check out the Devilrobots inspired one above), colored bits + more.  Tan-Ki’s work exposes yet another facet of the awesome world of art toys.  Hit the jump for a few more of our favorites.  Be sure to check out his blog post to see all thirty nine.   If you’re wondering – he will be opening a new web shop shortly ;-) In the mean time, try not to drool on your keyboard.

DPP_0522

Japanese apparel brand Neighborhood has teamed up with Disney and Medicom to produce a very nice VCD set – featuring the Big Bad Wolf (9.6”) and Mickey Mouse (6.5”). Set up in seemingly innocent poses (one is, one isn’t…), these carry the Disney charm.   Produced in very limited quantities, these are available in both a color and grayscale edition.  Recently released, these are definitely worth a look and are available Union and other select retailers.

Fool’s Paradise General Zoo Injury Edition

cover

Whoa.  Alan Ng (aka Double Line) introduced the Fool’s Paradise line in conjunction with G999  earlier this year with his Kids figure.  Ratcheting things up a notch and turning toward the dark side, Alan has just unveiled the completed General Zoo Injury Edition polystone figure (ed of 27).  This one is sick featuring a bloody bisected design – half flesh and half skeleton.   The sculpted details and paint on this look to be excellent.  The two-halves are indeed removable – they are attached magnetically. In fact, it appears, that General Zoo breaks down into numerous parts – his skeleton half decomposes into at least six pieces or so (see the last pic after the jump). Wild.

General Zoo Injury edition is available for $180 (includes global shipping).  To purchase drop Alan a line @  alwaysalan@netvigator.com.
