PlaSeeBo’s Larvopus Drops Tomorrow

Hit PlaSeeBo’s website tomorrow for your chance at grabbing one of four hand-crafted Larvopus resin/vinyl mix toys.

“This ULTRA LIMITED Edition of 4 custom hand painted pieces by Bob is a collaborative with Velocitron / Japan. The 5.5 inch high figure is a combo of clear vinyl and a hand cast resin Octo base with a switched color changing LED unit mounted underneath the base that projects the color lights up, illuminating the clear vinyl body. Signed and numbered at $250.”

Now this is one awesome piece of art toy. I love the idea of mixing resin custom bits with vinyl (I’ve seen a few other artists do this, and the results are usually very nice), but this particular design stands out as truly amazing. And the LED is just icing on what’s already a great-looking design. But $250 is well outside of my current toy budget.

Oh yeah, I really need to find a giant pile of money to support my interests. Anyone have a pile of cash that they’re not using?
