NYCC 12 Exclusive Space Junk Destroyers, Dust Mitez & Two-Faced Rotten Applez by Bad Applez Inc.

OsiRisORion and NeMo of Bad Applez Inc. have put together a crazy line-up of original custom resin figures for New York Comic-Con 2012. Along with some awesome one off Space Junk Destroyers and Two-Faced Rotten Applez, NYCC 2012 marks the world debut of BAI’s new Dust Mitez and Crabby Mitez!!!

The Blot’s been waiting for the release of a Dust Mitez figure for years, and from the look of this new figure it’s been well worth the wait. I was lucky enough to score a hand drawn Dust Mitez sticker from Nemo and Tenacious Toys a number of years ago and fell in love with the character. It’s just too bad I’m allergic to dust mites in real life. Pick up all of the killer resin figures seen here and so much more at the Tenacious Toys NYCC booth #3121 this weekend!

Resin is King Blind Box Series 2

The Resin is King Series is back and better than ever! Tenacious Toys and Dead Hand Toys have teamed up once again to curate an incredible new “Resin is King” blind box series featuring 16 talented artists. For Resin is King Series 2, each artist was asked to develop a new sub-3" resin figure and submit 10 pieces to the series using that sculpt. That’s 160 figures in all!!! The Blot honestly never thought we’d see a resin series to this magnitude, and it just shows how far the medium has come.

Resin is King Series 2 includes works by Brian Ahlbeck (of Dead Hand Toys), Dave Bondi, Rich Page (of UME Toys), NEMO and OsirisOrion (of Bad Applez Inc.), Jay222, Motorbot, Matt A*, Argonaut Resins, Selina Briggs (of The Jelly Empire), Kilroy III, Kris Dulfer (of KiD iNK iNDUSTRiES), JC Rivera, Christopher Moore (of We Become Monsters), Vanessa Ramirez, Scott Kinnebrew (of Forces of Dorkness) and Tim Stephson.

This incredible resin series makes its debut at Kidrobot NY with a very special release party on Thursday, October 4th, from 6-8pm, where many of the artists involved will be on hand to sign and sketch. Each blind box will retail for $25, and collectors can also purchase a full case of Resin is King Series 2 blind boxes, which is guaranteed to contain 1 piece from each of the 16 artists, for $400 at the Tenacious Toys online store. But that’s not all! Be on the lookout for the series’ Golden Ticket, which can be redeemed for a one of a kind 8” Tuttz resin figure by Argonaut Resins!

Resin is King Blind Box Series 1

When The Blot first heard about this series organized by Tenacious Toys and Brian Ahlbeck (aka Lysol), I got really excited. Resin definitely seems to be the future of designer art toys, and so it was only a matter of time until we got our very first resin blind box series! Resin is King Series 1 includes seven brand new 3” resin figures by seven talented artist: Motorbot, Jay222, Matt A*, Brian Ahlbeck (of Dead Hand Toys), Dave Bondi, Rich Page (of Ume Toys), and Bad Applez Inc (NEMO and OsirisOrion).

Just like the majority of resin figures out there, each piece is cast and painted by hand. Because of this, no two pieces will be identical. And remember the picture above only showcases one of the many colorways for each sculpt. Each Resin is King blind boxes will retail for $25, which includes one random figure, a ratio card and a sticker. There will also be one Golden Ticket randomly inserted into one of the 40 blind boxes in this series, which can be redeemed for a 7" Teuth resin figure by Brian Ahlbeck!

Resin is King Series 1 goes on sale this Friday, May 18th, at 8pm EST at the Tenacious Toys online store.

“I’m a Bad Apple” Group Custom Show by Bad Applez Inc.

The creative minds behind Bad Applez Inc., OsiRisORion and NeMo, have put together an exciting online group show entitled “I’m a Bad Apple.” They selected over 30 artists to customize those little plastic apples you find at a craft store, and told the artists to do whatever they want with these common craft store items. From the few teaser images The Blot’s seen so far, these custom apples are going to be sick!

“I’m a Bad Apple” will go live this Valentine’s Day, February 14th, on the Bad Applez Inc. website. Head over there next Tuesday, and click on the “I’m a Bad Apple” gallery page where you’ll be able to see pictures of each piece from all 30 artists involved. Every custom apple from the show will also be available for purchase from the Bad Applez Inc. online store. So if you see a piece you like, definitely pick it up! As the saying goes, an apple a day keeps the doctor away.
