Podgy Panda x Cris Rose Sriracha! Edition Podgonauts (Edition C)

The third release of the popular Podgonauts collaboration between Podgy Panda and Cris Rose goes on sale today, and each new colorway of this exciting 3” resin figure is better than the last! Podgonauts Edition C features a Sriracha colorway, which pays tribute to one of my favorite condiments! For this release the Podgonauts have found themselves in a very spicy situation…they've run into the planet of Sriracha! Not knowing their own spice levels, the poor sods have decided to try a bit to amusing results! I don’t think pandas were made to eat Sriracha.

Podgonaut Edition C comes in the form of the Panda Exploration Corp, dressed in a Sriracha jumpsuit with a laser engraved disc embedded in their chest. They also have an articulated head and removable dome. Only 3 Sriracha Edition Podgonauts (Edition C) resin figures were created, with each figure retailing for $140.

Podgy Panda x Cris Rose Podgonauts & Ramsay Resin Figures

Podgy Panda and Cris Rose have teamed up to create a truly awesome collaboration! Two versions of the same resin figure have been created, Cris’ robot panda chef Ramsay and Podgy Panda’s Podgonauts (cute animals in powered spacesuits), and both versions look incredible!

Podgonaut Edition A resin figures are from the Panda Exploration Corp, come dressed in Jumpsuit Orange, feature articulated heads and include removable domes. Each figure has a unique hand painted face and includes a laser engraved disc embedded in its chest. One lucky buyer will also find their Podgonaut comes with a super rare chase in the form of a little suited Monkey mechanic in matching colors and a rusty finish applied by Cris. Only 5 Podgonaut resin figures were created and each will retail for $130. These go on sale at Podgy Panda’s online store today, Thursday, April 5th at 18:00 London time.

Tangerine Orange Ramsay Edition A resin figures were designed to look like a panda. This was at the specific request of a chain of theme restaurants who wanted all their robots to look like animals while they cooked and serve their customers. Outfitted with a splash-guard to stop from getting prawns in the face and a jetpack, Ramsay was often in the air as each restaurant was a huge bio-dome, complete with trees, plants and running streams. Only 5 Tangerine Orange Ramsay Edition A resin figures were created and each will retail for $160. These go on sale at Cris Rose’s online store today, Thursday, April 5th at 18:00 London time. Cris also created a very limited run of 3 Dark Chocolatier Ramsays which will retail for $190 each.
