some Kozik x Mutant Evil news- 3 feet of EVIL

It would be twice as expensive. There is no rotational molding machine big enough to make it. The wall will need to be extremely THICK and would cause it to collapse under it's own weight in time.

 

its Real x Head approved!

 

advantages of fiberglass:

retail price is 1/6 od what a similiar size piece in softvinyl would be

weight is like 1/5th

much more durable. if it gets dirty just HOSE IT OFF in the driveway.

brighter colors possible

yard display? NO PROBLEM. toss it in the pool? IT FLOATS.

WILL NOT DEFORM DUE TO HEAT.

 

I'm getting more stoked by the minute as this is all settling in

And I agree if its not a rendition of an old color way I think darker colors would be better.

But there is SO much you can do with auto paint. I would like to see some crazy metallic old school chopper colors over a black base !

 

Question about the sculpt, maybe I missed it. Will this be 100% based on the regular toy we have (for example, you ship your sculpture a Mutant Evil and he just biggens it) or will you be slightly redesigning it ala Bigazz and the sculpt will be based on that?

HOK was the first thing that came to mind

 

My guess is since this is "official" that no tweaking is needed. At least I hope not.

 

That's right, FULL ON MUTANT EVIL!!

 

no tweaking

 

If it's upfront with the creators, then it can't be a bootleg by virtue of definition.

And I agree with LASH, Hot Rod apps. How about a flamed piece? Or make the metallics old merc colors ( Candy appled reds, etc. ) Chroming would be too over the top. Unless it's a hood ornament like the little Blobpus guys. Or ask MORI what trips his trigger most.

 

I say if we're gonna go with repro-ing an existing colorway that we hold an "EVIL" beauty contest. Post pics of colorways and we''ll decide by poll count or something like that.

 

please god no flamed piece heh. I don't want my 3foot mutant evil to match some retired guys convertible.

 

Or underwear.

 

LOL.


how about just all blue with a pepsi Logo.

 

you could really piss off the natives and put an all-over print of a bunch of labbits. the ultimate cross-over!!

i'm kidding, btw....

 

Do em' with wood paneling if we're getting car-like.

 

I was thinking exactly that!

Someone start a new thread just for Evil pics.

Also, all that talk of durability has me STOKED on teh idea of putting this outside like an EVIL Garden Gnome!

 

like my wife qould let me bring something like this into the house

 

I'm gonna have Evil on one side of the stairwell, Bigazzallon on the the other side. I guess not, damn thieves, cause I'd have to be out on the porch with a shotgun all day instead of just the half day I put into it now.

 

I had this fiberglass piece before and it gave off a nauseating smell, so I junked him to a friend.

will this piece be like the giant [expletive deleted] in stiffness and feel?

 

Presumably Frank will use the same plant he did for the Major Mao - I got that one, and it had no smell at all that I recall. Plus, in the 'flesh,' fiberglas shows off paint like a dream.

I'd certainly agree that, whatever the final scheme, using some of the new high-tech paint colors/effects from House of Kolor would be the most. I'm getting psyched.

most of the non clear or gid evils:

 

it will be the same quality as the big Mao. If youve seen it in real life, its very good quality. I have one of those giant [expletive deleted] and the quality will be much better.

 

I like this one the best
