Tenacious Toys is teaming up with Mexican artist YosoyBuque on a series of customs using their 5-inch vinyl Danger Dog mascot figure. YosoyBuque has named this series of 8 customs pieces - "Los 7 Pecaditos" (the Seven Little Sins). The eight figures in the series include seven Devil Dogs and one Angel. Each figure is hand sculpted and hand painted, so each is slightly different.
Los 7 Pecaditos are priced at $250.00 each and are available now in the Tenacious Toys shop.
The artist known as Apples has returned with another eerily lifelike custom. This time around it features a 4-inch tall Kidrobot Dunny as the base and - like the previous custom we showed - is based off of Apples' Dr. Apples Franchise. The Dr. Apples: Ma Pomme custom is currently available as a one-off piece, available for $250.00.
The following is the artist's description of this piece:
Dr. Apples is known for his tacky, uh I mean vibrant tastes in clothing. This is the first time his mother dressed him up. He wasn’t a fan then but it grew into me searching for cuff links on clearance every month. We are currently on the search to find his mother. She was kidnapped by fairies when he was a teen. Come with us on this journey of wonder and frustrations.
This is a custom, one-of-one 4” Munny of Dr. Apples. The base is Munny. His face and hands are made from polymer clay. His lovely brown eyes are resined to bring out the silent anger. He is wearing his signature black & white custom suit. This vinyl toy is based from a scene from the Dr. Apples Novella, Dr. Apples: The Origin, The Eye & the Journey. Some versions of the novella have illustrations made exactly from this one-of-one munny.
Plaseebo has announced the lottery details for the Octoyouzha and his Gnawseatus Ogre custom. With lottery submissions open through Thursday July 11th 2019, this lottery is limited to 2 Plaseebo custom sets (each is unique).
The Octoyouzha is a mash-up of a Kearjun Youzha vinyl head on a clear vinyl Plaseebo Skullocto base filled with space junk and a motion activated color-changing LED unit. He is tethered by a metal chain to his Gnawseatus Ogre who is a 9.25-inch tall mash-up of a clear vinyl Plaseebo Gnaw head on a clear blue vinyl Seatus body from Gruesome Toys filled with space junk, bugs, red glass inset eyes and a motion activated color-changing LED unit with replaceable batteries. Both figures are painted with multiple sprays of Monster Kolor and signed by Bob Conge.
If you win the lottery, it will run $450.00 plus $20.00 for US shipping OR $60.00 for worldwide shipping.

I'll let you read the following press release from Dr. Apples...but in the meantime, this might be the creepiest Mega Bunny custom I have ever seen. The piece will go up for sale on June 15th 2019, running $1,200.00. So, if you've got some loose change and a penchant for terrifying yourself...grab Dr. Apples.
Born in New Orleans, a long while ago (he’s vain about his age), Dr. Apples’ has graced your presence because he felt it was time to fraternize with humans. He’s a doctor in his own mind. He’s more like a witch but don’t you dare call him this! Oddly enough he despises other witches. I think some of them took a few potential clients. He enjoys Nola-style traditions, fancy pants attire, Venti-Iced Soy Chai-Latte (no ice), and has a sweet spot for unicorns & children. Who knew?
Don’t let his looks fool you, he is highly educated, trained and skilled in curios, magick of all kinds, traveling through other dimensions, powerful spells and of course getting into nasty trouble. You can get lost in his stories of learning about various beings. He’s a traveler of various scopes. Wherever he is, he enjoys collecting various species as souvenirs. After bringing them home, he gets bored and sells them for absinthe money.
He hates fairies (don’t ask about the eye), despises witches (even though he is one technically) & is a bit snobbish towards humans (Who isn’t?). Whatever he has seen, he catches and preserves; all yours in exchange for money. He’s generous like that. We are currently on the search to find his mother. She was kidnapped by fairies. Come with us on this journey of wonder and annoyances. You’ll laugh, I’ll cry while he wreaks havoc the only way he knows how: by bothering me.
This is a custom, one-of-one 18” Mega Munny of Dr. Apples. The base is Mega Munny. His mouth is open and has a retractable silicone tongue. Feel free to put his dread locs in a ponytail although he might not like that one bit. His face and hands are made from polymer clay. He’s hand painted and airbrushed. He comes with his signature grey/white eye and charismatic ju-ju. He’s all dressed up just for you. Aren’t you special? He is physically located at The Odd’s End in Decatur, GA and is for sale online as well.
From the Ness Is More! A Loch Ness Monster Show for Toycon UK 2019, Taylored Curiosities'Little Ness custom is currently available to purchase. Available via Martian Toys online store, the custom 2.5-inch Raffy (Kidrobot) figure features a custom base. You can currently pick this one-off custom piece for $160.00.
The Sucklord has dropped twelve new custom creations showing off some iconic male characters as females (although, who really knows what E.T. was). There's the Interview With a Diva series based on Andy Warhol's Interview magazine and Polyester Schoolgirls, made to look like old store advertisements (I appreciate the Bamberger's one). Available over at Suckadelic, these one-off figures include a 3.75-inch tall Resin Bootleg Action figure under a blister pack and mounted on 8-inch x 10-inch Framed Graphic Card. These are created and signed by The Super Sucklord and sell for $175.00 each.
Artist Mike Slobot has released the latest figure into his universe of robot art - it's called Slonkabot 1000-5YL.
I like to think that I am the Willy Wonka of my Slobot universe, so I created a robot character inspired by the Ooompa Loompas in "Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory" - except that my Slonkabots don't make chocolate, they help me make my robot art (The Slobots).
I have been creating my Slobots since 2004 in sculpture, paintings, drawings, and digital. Most of the sculptures are one of a kind works of art using old and new toys, odds and ends from my everyday life, and things that would normally be thrown away. A lot of them have glow-in-the-dark eyes and wires, like the Slonkabot 1000-5YL.
The one-off custom Slonkabot 1000-5YL, which uses a 8-inch KAWS Companion figure, can be purchased for $350.00.
