As I mentioned last week, my Brainiac 5 loving daughter is now past the half-way point of enduring the second annual “Kill Brainy Week”, created and produced by her two best friends at school. Three days down, two more to go. I’ve asked her to type out a little bit about what they’ve done to Brainy each day so far, so for your enjoyment (or horror) here are her descriptions… Monday – First they took a plastic knife and poked his eyes out. Then they poked a huge hole for his ‘mouth’. After that they ripped the paper in half and stuffed one half into a chicken sandwich bun and stuffed that in a french fry container. Then they began to take more plastic knives and stab the box… =O! It was scary… The other half got wrapped in ham and was thrown away. Brainy Pic! Tuesday – Ok… today they ripped his head off the picture. Then they shredded the body and stuffed it into their mashed potatoes and corn. It was disturbing… =O! (They called it his grave and then said rest in pieces!) Oh yeah, and the head? They dumped it in honey and stuck it to a dude riding his bicycle on the milk carton. After that they smushed the carton and threw it away… Brainy Pic Again! Wednesday – Alrighty! =) Today they tore it in half (again). They gave the bottom half of it to my friend and he used it as a napkin. The other half endured worse; they took my empty milk carton and filled it with our lunches, (salsa, chips, milk, sour cream, nacho cheese, etc) Then they put gold fish in it. We usually do this every time we get goldfish and it’s called “Fishie Island”. Except this time they stuck the top half of Brainy into it and crushed it and threw it away… =( ! So there you have it. She talked about Brainy so much, she drove her friends to breaking point. I’ll update once more at the end of the week to let you know how the rest of the week went… As a bonus for any Legion of Super Heroes / Brainiac 5 fans that stumble on to this post from a search engine, here are a couple shots of her latest Brainy custom figure. It’s a repainted Spiderman Mighty Mugg…
Delicious Drips and Tenacious Toys have teamed up with toy customizers around the world (established folk to amateurs) to create the “Who’s Da Bomb?” show and contest. Well, yours truly decided to join in the fun and I submitted the following entitled “Who Needs Enemies?” Please take a moment and go vote! If not for mine, vote for another! No wait… vote for mine!
OK, here’s the link to all of them. There ARE some really great ones in there… I’ve just finished painting a pair of custom Rolitoboy figures this past weekend, and the folks at Delicious Drips have been kind enough to post them! If you like what you see below, please take a moment to head over to their site and vote for He Smile Me and She Smile Me…
If you are curious, here’s what the original toys look like…
We just added a gallery of U.B.Funkeys from Radica/Mattel. You can also see some custom Funkeys here in Augiewan’s Customs Gallery. If you are a fan of the U.B.Funkeys figures and/or game, you can find a whole section devoted to Funkeys here. You’ll find a Funkeys discussion forum as well… As reported, I submitted a few of my custom figures to CustomToyLab.com this week, hoping to get them posted and I found out yesterday that they accepted my custom U.B.Funkey named Cinnamon. I’m pretty geeked about it, though I don’t know if that means they didn’t care for the other two submitted or if they just wait and release them in a one-at-a-time manner. Guess I’ll find out soon enough…
I just sent in my first submissions to CustomToyLab.com to see if they want to add my custom toy work to their online collection. What they got were my first two stabs at custom U.B.Funkeys Cinnamon and Pox as well as a custom sculpted figure of Eric the Blob from the Invader Zim series. Here’s hoping they like them!
