… Maybe I should’ve written a sticky that said I’d be at NYCC all weekend! Yesterday was exciting, I have plenty of things to post about… but it’ll all have to wait until tomorrow because I’m just going to wrap things up for y’all with a “pretty little bow”. In the meantime, I went to Erick Scarecrow’s Soopa Coin Up Show. First thing that must be mentioned, getting there really was “soopa easy” as Erick stated on the flyer.
Once I got there, I have to admit that I was highly impressed with the space. It was nothing like I had imagined… then again, whenever I’m outside of my safe zone, nothing is really what it seems. The space was big and well lit. I’m not a fan of florescent lights beaming over my head, but I love florescent lights both behind or under vinyls because it just makes for better photos. That’s just my opinion.
The customs were overall amazing. I had fond memories of kANO’s Money Grip show- not in the art or artists themselves, but seeing what other artists do with ONE specific figure. The munny/dunny is so “mainstream” that it doesn’t have the same effect on me that these shapes have. Hit the jump for some of my favorites and visit the flickr to see all of the customs.

Last night was Mad’s Phase 3 realease. What’s that mean? I am referring to the second coming of his Mad*l’s. I have to say that since I got into the scene I was longing for this day. I wasn’t around during the first wave of Mad*L’s and now that he’s producing them himself, I am overjoyed with the upcoming releases. In order to kick off the Mad*L wave, Mad has a custom 10″ Mad*Ls show at MPH last night. Check out more photos after the jump.

Vinyl Requiem posted this Gaara custom munny last week and I forgot to share him. He is the awesomeness! Check the packaging after the jump. The artist, Adrian Tam, is responsible for a couple of the works that have made their way onto various sites, including; Ryu, Akuma and Sam Fisher customs. According to his interview with Vinyl Requiem, you can contact him about comissions. I have to say that his customs are great, but the packaging just adds an extra something to the piece.
Piece: Gaara from Naruto, the items I used was just clay for its sash, and ninja band. The gourd was made of another munnys head, the bomb, and a spray can and then it was just all clayed up. Then I just made a custom box.

The Kid Robot’s mini munny competition ended long ago, but I can’t help and be dazzled by the designs. I wanted to post Audrey II (Little Shop of Horrors) way back when the competition was taking place, but I kept running into so many designs it was hard to pick the order. But here it is. Feed me!! Anyone up for giving up some blood? 
Unfortunately, there’s no additional information about the artist.

*screams* I’ve been in love with Nightmare Before Christmas longer than I can actually remember. Every Christmas I have a tradition of watching both NBC and The Grinch (since it’s release), because they both remind me of a time that wasn’t so complicated. This munny totally rocks for the simple fact that it’s Jack the pumpkin King! Check out ~fat-sheep2002 on DeviantArt for more.

I swear, communities like Flickr and DeviantArt so rule. You find the most amazing work, and the inspiration you get from looking at the stuff is overwhelming. I’m a huge fan of Peanuts, the comic strip not the nuts. The whole gang are my favorite characters, which rarely happens in my life– me actually falling in love with all the characters instead of one or two. Anyway, DeviantArt user *duss005 uploaded this image last week of this Charlie Brown custom munny, I just had to share.
