    Anyone know of new things TB has coming out for the remainder of the year. or early next year Some of his stuff is hit or miss but in general I always like taking a gander at his new stuff.

    Didn't see any at floopdodle. Just checking here

    Isn't he focusing more on painting these days? Or so I remember.

    I know he had the ether exhibit which was considered a different approach but was wondering if he had any new stuff coming out rather than just different colorways i.e. the mechagodzilla and helio pollard, drag etc...

    I misunderstood your first post. I thought you were saying you had heard that he did have something new in the pipeline, and were wondering what it was. I don't know of any upcoming toy projects from TB.

    This was on Vinyl pulse earlier this month.


    Gama-Go's Deathbot character created by Tim Biskup will break free from the realm of silk-screened shirts, hoodies and prints with the upcoming figure release in October from Ningyoushi. A tease yes, you know you like it... More info as we get it.

    I heard it will be made of wood, not vinyl. Anyone know if this is true?

    that would be cool if it's done right. i can totally see deathbot as a wood toy....even better with some metal parts

    I'd actually like to see his squiddles squid be made. Translucent and other colors would be great.

    The deathbot teaser is pretty cool but I want to see some more pics!!

    Not sure if the link will work but
    If you google... Deatbot Gama-go ..... Vinylpulse has a picture. It's the back of the deathbot looking over San Francisco (I'm assuming)

    It's being released at Ningyoushi and the writer says that it's made of wood.

    I like......

    Any dates yet?

    Nope. I actually emailed ningyoushi and one of the reps had no details...i.e. size, price, release date.

    I guess October's the only clue

    Or they are really good at keeping secrets. But then again, i guess they wouldn't be showing teasers.

    looks like it's made of wood, but overall looks interesting...

    this toy is hot, ...and not just because it's eco friendly.

    On that other forum. Looks like it was scanned from a magazine, but they didn't say which one.

    looks like that's a page from the Diamond Previews catalog. They just solicited Ningyoushi's Billy Bronze Book Edition, so likely they'll offer this as well.

    Looking forward to this figure. Bet it's just as high quality as the Hell's Proprietor wood figure they did with Glenn Barr.
