Gallery1988 x Daniel Danger Art Toy Prototype Photos

Artist Daniel Danger and Gallery1988 have partnered up to release Danger's first full-scale art toy, and it’s a super limited and beautiful hand-crafted piece. (link) The Blot’s a huge fan of Daniel Danger’s artwork, so when I learned about this out of the blue release yesterday, I got really excited! What I wasn’t expecting was it will be released next week…talk about keeping something really under the radar!

This figure has to be seen to be believed. Produced by Pretty In Plastic, this vinyl figure will go down in the record books, even if there aren't going to be many made. You can check out the original sketch by Daniel that the toy is based on above, and some in progress shots of an early prototype of the Gallery1988 x Daniel Danger art toy below:
