The Creature ~ Squidnik custom toy 2007



















"The Creature from the bubble gum lagoon"

This was a custom done by the artist known as Squidnik! He used a "Dumb Dummies" toy form. For this project he did a collaboration with his wife "Jennyfur". He did all the painting except the face detail. That was all her! Such a wicked piece with awesome detail!

This was a piece that was commissioned by fellow KidRobot toy forum member "lalolo" back in 2007. Thank you again lalolo for helping me build my Squidnik collection.

The photo at the top of this post is of the toy BEFORE it was completed in 2007 by them. Below is a picture of the completed custom with my other custom toys by Squidnik. You can see a few things different!

Yeah... but 14 toys? And they are blind boxes!!! This is going to cost us. ::sighs::

But YES very exciting that they are coming out! You know I'm saving right now. I've got a bunch of stuff up for auction now. Including my doubles of Mizuno Garden trading cards.
