NEWS: Goodleg Toys' Shipwrecked Plunder Boys

The chaps at Goodleg Toys continue to impress and utterly baffle me (seriously, what are you guys on?) with their, erm, ''unique'' releases and the upcoming Pablo Perra hand-sculpted, 10-piece limited edition run of figures - dubbed Captain John ''Goodleg'' Blackweird of the Shipwrecked Plunder Boys - is no different.

NEWS: Bob Conge at Phillips Fine Art and Frame

"THE TOY AS ART" would be a befitting phrase to describe the arena my recent work inhabits. These are pieces inspired by the vivid memories of a fervent belief in the likes of Santa and Frankenstein, the tragic loss of that vibrant reality and on occasion my revulsion with the reality of today. My pieces find expression in the form of small sculptural figures in vinyl or resin and large folio limited edition prints.

We don't know what exactly she has planned - although from the above image released yesterday, we think we can hazard a pretty good guess guess - but it looks as if Lisastarchild of Sleepy Robot 13 fame is expanding her line to include some new, less-robotic and more... undead characters. At least that's our guess.

When we know more, so will you.

KICKSTARTER: *Monster Pack of Tattoos

Nothing makes you feel quite so awesome (at least when you're a kid) as a temporary tattoo. I'm sure I'm not the only one who spent his formative years sporting a MUM or skull transfer on his arm. And now - much like Alf in Pog form - temporary tattoos have been given a makeover, courtesy of artist collective, The Tattoo Club.
