Vinyl Thoughts 2!!



Vinyl Thoughts 2 just wrapped up, and I have to say I was super impressed by this one. I have never seen a Custom Toy Show of this size outside a Convention! Just goes to show in Texas everything is bigger.

Always a great turn out, it's great to see so many, so passionate about the toy culture.


You never know what will happen…..

Atama present's Show Me the Munny 4 at the Strangeways last weekend (Jan.25). The customizers upped their game and brought in some get concepts and new applications for your eyes.



As for most of these event it was jam packed, and a little difficult to get in and take a pictures. So if you are ever in Dallas try to make it. It's worth the night out


Ohhh! Lights! Good one Cody Phillips


Also found some new talent for me to watch out for, like Pete the Monster.


MonsterBot hung out all night and didn't win any of ATAM's Raffles…maybe next time. 


Friday November 8th The Sleepy Dan x MonsterBot Studio Pillow Fighters were released! Thanks to everyone that came out to make it possible. We had a blast along with the ATAMA crew.


At the event 2 of the 20 sets were chase set with metallic and painted versions of the Pillow Fighters


So think there should be another run?


Big thanks go Josh at ATAMA and this GUY for getting the last pack! Thanks Ruban!
For the first time, MonsterBot Studio and Sleepy Dan Brand are teaming up to release a limited number run of Pillow Fighters mini toy sets. They were designed to be little idols, representative of the Pillow Monsters from Sleepy Dan.



Each set of three different resin cast monsters, comes in a numbered edition box. No set has the same three colorways, plus there’s a single chase box to find! This is an all age show that is FREE to the public, so bring your little monsters to check out the wrestling mayhem…
Have see the sneak peeks @monsterbotstudio ???? 

Underground 4


Underground 4 by Art Love Magic was HUGE this year! Not only in the number of artist and performers but the attendance!

It was also the first appearance of DRANK the new blank toy design by Mac XI and MonsterBot Studio. DRANK is 5 inches tall and has 2 points of articulation at the arms.

There are only 7 of these guys including some customized versions.

No Time for Video




So I was unable to post a video showing how I made DRANK. What I didn't know about videos is that if it's your first time, it takes a really long time to edit and set up, which with the show date of Feb 11th (UNDERGROUND 4) looming I could not work on DRANK and do the video post as I hoped. I still kept up with post on twitter showing the steps I have done. Lots more to do so as always stay tuned!
