Customs Store

I finally got around to putting up my own store to sell my customs. Started to get too difficult responding though e-mail and pm's. I'm, sure you saw that I added a "STORE" button above. It will take you straight to my store -- http://ericnilla.storenvy.com/

Will go live on Wed, the 25th.

Neclos Fortress Keshi

I collect many different keshi lines and one that has been getting my attention recently is Neclos (Nekurosu) Fortress.  I find the majority of the figures to be awesome, a very nice mix of Yokai monsters and just creepy beasts. The colors in this line are amazing in person, some even color change. I just wish these were more easy to come by, other than on YAJ. ;)

Some of my collection
 
 
If you have any for sale or trade hit me up, i'm always willing to make a deal. :)

Universe of Violence

Since I will be co-releasing 'Universe of Violence' (UofV) in a couple weeks, a new ongoing line of custom figures released by me and my new partner in crime Jimmy over at Ironhaus, I thought I might as well post something about it. Gotta start some where. :)

A nice grouping of a couple of each finished rubber figures
A few Proto casts (Blemmyea Warrior, Cedarief, Eyeklops)

Slight Addiction (Keshi Madness)

So, aside from sculpting and casting my own rubber figures... I can admit it, I am addicted to Japanese Rubber figures (or Keshi as they are know in the community). I buy from Yahoo Auctions Japan (YAJ) on a regular basis, mostly looking for specific Keshi to finish off a few of my collections. Now to share...

Here are a few  auctions I've recently won.

First are Kōryū Densetsu Villgust (just known as Villgust) Keshi. I love the monsters in this line, some are just straight up badass and creepy. Love it~!
 Here are some ZOIDS Keshi mixed in with some whatever dino skeletons. I loved the original ZOIDS when I was a kid, never got into the new ones. As soon as I found out they had Keshi counterparts, I had to get some.
 This I bought by mistake, I thought it was a Capsule Macross Kit (I have a couple and love them) but after I bought this I realized it wasnt Macross, but Gundam. Still cool, just not my thing. Got a good price for it, so I can't complain. :)
 Here are some of my favorite Keshi, Neclos (Necros) Fortress. Full of all sorts of monsters and Yokai.  These usually go for a pretty penny, but I scored this small lot pretty cheap. The colors that a lot of these come in I've never even seen in any other Keshi line. They even have color change and G.I.T.D. figures. Sweet~!
Definitely a nice lot to add to my collection. :)
 The next photos consist of... I'm sure you can guess, Street Fighter Keshi~! I just recently got into these. I have a handful of the US bootleg ones sold in capsules here in a weird white/tan color with a slight paint app that came in a couple colors. Not the best, but these Original Keshi are awesome. They come in a wide variety of colors, much more appealing than the US boots I was used to. In these pics you can see a few different series. A normal size and a SD size (plus a couple oddball sized ones). I love them both and hopefully can get a full set soon enough.

Hope you enjoyed looking at my latest Keshi score, I will definitely have more to come, so keep checking back.

Manzilla II

If anyone reading this knows me, you know that I have been collaborating with Nama Niku for quite awhile now. He is the creator of the best Kitbashed keshi made this side of the Pacific. Seriously, 'Nuff said. His newest piece molded and cast by me is an amazing Godzilla/ Kinnikuman creation and easily one of the best figures I have ever seen, period. It's awesome. I am so honored to be able to cast this guy up and create some awesome rubber figures of him.

So for those who haven't seen him yet (anyone not on LRG).

With him is his micro best friend "Headfoot"
Some uncleaned ones (sporting some new colors in this pic as well; neon pink, neon yellow and neon blue!)


E-mails welcome for sales as well...

GPK Cheap Toy Madness

Sometimes it's all in who you know. I happen to have a very generous friend who lent me his very expensive Series 2 GPK Cheap Toy Figures to mold and make Customs of them, Thanks Paul~!

I am currently selling them for $15 + Shipping on the Little Rubber Guys forum. These figures average out at $400 each for an original, so why not get a whole set at a fraction of that price?  =]
