To celebrate the impending launch of the incredibly detailed Eggcore Rabbit figure, 909Toy and VTSS have organized a custom show featuring international talent which will take place later this summer in China.   For his custom, Nakanari created ‘Cybor Shocker’ which plays off the two halves of the toy nicely – both the organic and the intricate robotic side.  The use of different colors throughout the robotic side really draws attention to the figure’s tremendous detail.  Nicely done.

Ahhh… Finally a shot of the face of the SDCC ‘Dusk’ edition of Mike Sutfin’s  Mad Battle Man from Reckless Toys.   Full shots will be posted by fellow blogger and friend  Kirkland Jue of  Toybot Studios tomorrow, so why post this now?  Because we can and oh, we dig the toy.  As a reminder, these teaser shots are of Mike’s hand-done paint master.  We hear the factory paints are quite good as a result of Mike taking the time to document his process step by step.  Looking forward to seeing the production pieces.
