Pictures of our piece...Buff Monster Bling Bling...
amazing depth of resin, metal, and slick high gloss, it may just be too much for some to handle... visually and physically ... this is big and heavy at 8" and over 10lbs.

The drive was hell...Super 7 has great kaiju...we can't wait to start making our own...
and the city is full of awesome food... ate way too much...but not as much as some people ;)

Toxic Catalyst at Super 7!

We are happy to be joining a bunch of super talented artists for the Toxic Catalyst Show this weekend at Super 7.

Just put the finishing touches on our pieces and getting ready to hit the road!

Note from Sean at Monster Hero:

"You may have seen this already, but here it is again! A few months ago, Super7 asked to curate a resin group show, and we happily obliged! We set out to invite the best and brightest of the resin toy designers, from the OGs like Le Merde and Bob Conge and Sucklord to guys who are maybe just dipping their toes into the resin pool, but whose work really stands out. We're extremely excited by the mountain of amazing work that keeps pouring in and it's amazing to see how much the "scene" has grown. Come on out to the OLD Super7 location (typo on the card) August 21 to hang out with us and talk shop!"
