Yuudoku - Max Toy Co x Troy Stith (Colorway Now Available)

I posted this in my custom thread, but figured I'd share it over here as well.

I'm happy to finally share a small teaser with all of you for an upcoming vinyl release with Max Toy Co! This has been awhile in the making and it's been just about impossible not to shout it out to the world. I want to thank Mark for giving me this awesome opportunity to add a character to his already stellar lineup of kaiju monsters!



Jump over to my blog if you want to check out his backstory.

Re: Yuudoku Teaser - Max Toy Co x Troy Stith

I like to see new stuff, can't wait to see this one complete.

Re: Yuudoku Teaser - Max Toy Co x Troy Stith

I just got the okay to share the name sculpt I did for Yuudoku's header. Here's a 'chop shop' version of it. It'll look a lot different next time you see it.

 

Re: Yuudoku Teaser - Max Toy Co x Troy Stith

I'll gloss coat this tonight before I do the final pics of it, but here's the painted name sculpt.



The header is just about done!

 

Re: Yuudoku Teaser - Max Toy Co x Troy Stith

Here's the finished header for Yuudoku. Things are moving forward on the production front in Japan, so I should have a firm release date soon.

 

Re: Yuudoku Teaser - Max Toy Co x Troy Stith (Full Reveal)

Yup this is a double whammy kinda day! Just got a pic of Yuudoku in wax form from Mark, so we figured we might as well share everything with you at this point The wax master is heading to the iron mold factory today, the next time we see him he'll be made of pure sofubi goodness.

The top pics are of the resin master I sent to Japan before I cut it in half, his tentacles are being held on with clay for the pics. Yuudoku will be articulated at 3 points, both tentacles and at the waist. Plus, his removable eye, will come in a variety of colors depending on the mood we're in when popping them in. The bottom pic is Yuudoku in wax that I received from Mark a couple of hours ago.

 

Re: Yuudoku Teaser - Max Toy Co x Troy Stith (Full Reveal)

Wow, congratulations dude. I think yours is still one of the few customs I own.
This looks great. At first I was all, "How are they doing the eye?" Then I saw the wax and figured it'll go in later. I like his back especially, there's a lot of detail there.
So if his eye is removable does it also plug into his back? Also, why is it removable?

 

Re: Yuudoku Teaser - Max Toy Co x Troy Stith (Full Reveal)

Thanks dude!!! The eye is mostly removable bc it has to be taken out during the molding and casting process. So all of the vinyl coming in from Japan will be eyeless and we'll pop them in afterward. Which gives us the freedom to match the eyes to the paint schemes we do.

 

Re: Yuudoku Teaser - Max Toy Co x Troy Stith (Full Reveal)

I love all the texture that you do. I cant wait to see how it translates to vinyl. Congratz!

 

Re: Yuudoku Teaser - Max Toy Co x Troy Stith (Full Reveal)

thanks a lot! I can't wait to see it either. It looks like the wax picked up most if not all the details. That's a good sign heading into the next step!

 

Re: Yuudoku Teaser - Max Toy Co x Troy Stith (Full Reveal)

Wow! That is really gross! I love it!
Congratulations on this awesome achievement.

Maybe I missed it...how tall is he?

 

Re: Yuudoku Teaser - Max Toy Co x Troy Stith (Full Reveal)

Thanks for the support! I've hit my mark with your 'gross' comment haha

He's right around the 4" mark.

 

Re: Yuudoku Teaser - Max Toy Co x Troy Stith (Full Reveal)

That's a good size. He can chill with Chaos. See who is better looking.

 

Re: Yuudoku Teaser - Max Toy Co x Troy Stith (Full Reveal)

Can't wait to see that pic!

 

Re: Yuudoku Teaser - Max Toy Co x Troy Stith (Test Pull)

I just received these pics of Yuudoku's test pull from Mark over at Max Toy Co. Man am I stoked to see him with his eye popped in! We were hoping the first wave of blanks would be ready for SDCC, but due to a heavy work load at the vinyl factory they won't be making it in time. It looks like we'll be about a week late. But the good news is, if you're heading to SDCC, stop by the Dragatomi booth (4935) starting on Friday to check out the test pull. It'll be arriving from Japan and heading straight to SDCC once it gets here.

Also, Mark and Jay222 will be at the Dragatomi booth on Thursday (5pm-6pm) handing out header cards and doing a signing.

 

Re: Yuudoku Teaser - Max Toy Co x Troy Stith

The pulls look awesome, but I'm still stoked on this header! So good.

 

Re: Yuudoku Teaser - Max Toy Co x Troy Stith (Test Pull)

Thanks a lot! I can't wait to see them in person.

 

Re: Yuudoku Teaser - Max Toy Co x Troy Stith (New Pics w/Eye

Yuudoku's US invasion has started! Mark just sent these pics over to me to share with everyone. He'll be taking him down to SDCC to be displayed at Dragatomi's booth (4935). He'll be on display for the rest of the weekend, so if you're at SDCC, stop by and check him out.

 

Re: Yuudoku Teaser - Max Toy Co x Troy Stith (Blanks)

The blanks have arrived at Mark's place and we should have sale date details soon. Can't wait for my lot to get here.

 

Re: Yuudoku - Max Toy Co x Troy Stith (Blanks have arrived)

Was this all original sculpting or where the legs built off of a dunne ? It's looks familiar ?

Congrats though on getting your first toy
