Justin Alan Volpe, creator of POPprolific, will release The Prior of Chaos resin figures at PIQ Grand Central Terminal on Friday May 12th 2017. These 5.5-inch tall clear resin blue-glow figures are the result of a decade of sculpting, collecting, and casting. Using an over-sculpting technique Justin creates figures with recognizable elements that merge into new characters. The glow-in-the-dark Prior of Chaos figures have removable custom robes in three pieces with Swarovski crystals. They’ll be available only at PIQ Grand Central and PIQgifts.com.

So this is just so confusing on so many different levels. The figure is named Lover Boy by the artist Okedoki. He’s basically a black Squidward (from SpongeBob SquarePants) wearing what appears to be Pee-wee Herman’s attire, except a red bow-tie is swapped out for a red heart on his lapel.
