A "friend" of mine at MySpace sent me this really cool photo showing 2 of his creations. A Joker Munny ( Custom Toy ) Action Figure & a pair of Joker Sneakers! Click on the picture above for a more detailed photo. He painted both of these & did a really great job on them, don't ya think?
Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha, whew! Oh man, when I saw these they cracked me up! Here's a set of customized MUNNY FIGURES made to look like Batman & Robin, if they were very old senior citizens. They were made by an artist named "Montreal Munny". I found these over at a website called TOY CUTTER that is basically all about the urban toys fad. One of the things in that sub-culture is to take these blank figures that are called "Munnys" & totally make them custom to your own ideas. They have HUGE contests where artists display their creations. I think these were from a show at the famous urban toy store called KID ROBOT. I love these, they're hilarious. I also like that they limited the palette to just black, white, & grays ( with a little bit of YELLOW )...that's great. Is that suppose to make you think of "B&W TV" or an old vintage photograph? Very cool.
Over at the ALBOTAS website they do a feature called "Munny Monday". Munny Figures are "teddy bear-looking Lego figures" that are very simple & plain. Then, custom artists paint them up with their own graphic style. It's a pretty interesting concept & there have been a lot of great artwork done with these. Here's an example: Here's one made to look like Heath Ledger's JOKER from The Dark Knight Batman movie...SWEET!! There's a link button down below if ya wanna check out more.
