Here's my initial WiP sketch of 'Bomb Disposal Bunny' using a figure called 'Olee' by marine/Jouwe.....

WiP_outline

....plenty more work to be done here even though the figure is quite small, standing around 8cm tall. Hopefully more will be added over the weekend.

Space Crabs

Hmmm....well yea....a rather unfortunate name but I quite like the look of these.....I'm a sucker for a space theme :D

Space Crabs

....no information on these....I found the image amongst a bunch that Vinyl Pulse are using as part of their Spring VTN coverage so it's probably worthwhile keeping an eye on VP for further info when it breaks.

Koibito by Yoskay Yamamoto

nobody@vox.com(Jimmy Foo) — Sun, 04 May 2008 21:06:05 +0100

Some colour protos of Yoskay Yamamoto's Koibito were exhibited alongside some of his paintings at his first solo show 'Upside Of Down' at Project: gallery in Culver City.....Great paintings an all but if you want to see them use the link or go visit the gallery....I for one just can't wait for this figure to be released......

Koibito

....this promises to be a stunning piece and from seeing these colour protos I don't think they're going to disappoint. There is huge potential for a ridiculous amount of colourways and just this once I don't care one bit as I really really want one of these and if that means there has to be an edition in every colour that exists....so be it.....but that red one has my name on it :D

Festo Air Jelly

Festo Air Jelly

Powered by a lithium-ion battery, an electric motor and a bit of helium and there's also a water version, AquaJelly. As a lot of people have already said there's not many real-world applications for this.....but i think it has enough of a reason to exist just by being so damn cool and floaty.....

Go Hero's Buck Rogers - Update

nobody@vox.com(Jimmy Foo) — Mon, 28 Apr 2008 12:52:18 +0100

I received another update from Go Hero for their much anticipated Buck Rogers 1:6th figure....this time it's a head sculpt and a helmet....

WiP_Head

WiP_Helmet

....some superb detailing on both of these works-in-progress...but I just love the stylings of the helmet it most definitely captures the essence of the early Buck Rogers.
