Those stupid toys I like so much, MythBusters

Well you can't have this one, he's not even half done.


And Nova you are even more awesome, may I ask, Ted, repainted Junkman, or recorded off TV?

I can't remember, my VHS is broken..

And the tape came with an action figure.

New one.

Question - do you bake the clay you add onto them, or what? And, if you do, or at least if it hardens, have you ever considered sanding them down?

I'm just a bit bothered by the lumpyness and the finger-printyness of the added on parts. I think sanding would be something to try.

But, These are awesome, and are something I've always wanted to to - albeit with LEGO minifigs.

Dr. Wario

Yes I sand, I just suck at it.

Edit: Oh yeah I bake the clay although I've gotten air dry stuff now so hopefully that'll work better. But I don't add on to them everything that isn't a normal part of the figure is entirely custom and removeable.

Posting this here because.

Bump, I'm going to have Bowser done by the 27th for a contest. I had hoped to have Luigi and Wario done by now but I don't so take these two Kinnikuman dudes.


So here's Rikishiman/Wolfman/Sosumi. Kinnikuman's sumo buddy that defeated a Rubix's Cube, got destroyed at his own event, ripped into pieces by an evil Slinky, killed himself to bring Kinnikuman back to life, drilled through the gut with his Nazi buddy, got attacked by a living mountain in hell, moved to Hawaii, and then defeated the God of Brute Strength. He leads an odd life.


This is Detective Gobugari / Detective Akaiwa in the cartoon and comic respectively, or Tommy Gunn if you prefer his Ultimate Muscle cameo. Anyhow he and his men would rush in and try to solve a crime guns blazing but they never got anything done, he actually died in both his comic appearances, first time he fell off his squad car second time Kinnikuman accidentally hit him a two miles an hour with a bus. When he showed up in the cartoon they kept him around as part of the good guy cheering group and for getting into the big fight scenes where he'd beat people with his gun. He's just so random I think he's great.

That fight scene looks awesome

You should change the title, because, hey, its art.

And its kinda not too bad either. Great stuff.

Very nice, especially with ones like Mario.

I like them. They're nice and original.

Thanks.



Here's Luigi, I dislike his hairpiece, but it works, also I wanted more pictures but my camera's batteries died.

These are awesome.

I especially like that pic where Mario is holding Sonic above his head.

Took some better pictures of Luigi.

The picture of his front came out fuzzy once again so I'll take more again sometime.

Those are pretty sweet, but how exactly do you make them?

Basic painting, sculpting, and decal use. The only thing really interesting is that sculpted parts are removed before baking so they’re removable afterwards.

I'm taking requests now.
Except I'm not, unless you wanna pay me. Is there any reason this doesn't get many replies now I can understand when I post my Kinnikuman ones and such, but I just made Luigi, freaking Luigi and this is a Mario forum. I don't see how this hasn't gotten many posts unless most people hate these, me, or just toys in general and if you do please tell me what you don't like I can take criticism. Oh and I only said the requests thing because I'm hoping someone will because that entertains me.

I don't get why they don't get replies myself. (I don't reply because I try and avoid replying to most art topics myself as I'm not a good critic and don't want to seem to comment on one or two and no others.)

The one with Luigi carrying Mario... I didn't think those types of toys had bending that way, unless you simply reglued it that way or something. Looks pretty awesome, actually.

Arms and head are ball jointed, tipped his head down and turned his arms around. Thanks.

I'm actually serious about this, I got quite a bit of custom fodder resently but I'm not sure what all to make so if anyone has any requests of characters I would actually like to hear them.
