MONSTREHERO

Finger Five coming soon! (?)

2012-01-23T13:19:00.002-05:00

Here's a project that's been a loooong time in the making: the FINGER FIVE gang fingerpuppets! FINGER FIVE is a series of 5 (duh) japanese vinyl one-piece toys. We decided to go with fan-favorite MYSTERIOUS APE as our first entry. He's got one or two surprises in store yet.

We're super-psyched to be a part of this motley crew which includes toy giants PAUL KAIJU, SUCKLORD, ONELL DESIGN and LAMOUR SUPREME!! Big THANKS to Don Fig-lab Kratzer for putting this all together and inviting humble Monstrehero to be a part of it. More details as they come!

Sludge Attack at Toy Karma 3!

2011-09-09T00:27:00.003-04:00

Toy Karma 3 opens tomorrow at Rotofugi, and once again we've got some goodies in the show! Sludgemgon and the Sludgeminions are pure resin creations, with absolutely no paint and an absolute ton of different resins. I wish I kept count, but between the open pour molds and the layers and layers of resin drips I estimate at least 25 different pours between the three figures.

Special thanks to Mark Nagata and the Rotofugi crew for the invite to the show, so if you're in Chicago this weekend go check it out!

New stuff!

2011-07-28T21:01:00.000-04:00

New goodies are live in the shop! Check it out!!

SDCC 2011

Another year, another SDCC! Thanks to everyone who came out to see our stuff at booth 4937, and especially big thanks to Matt, Jesse and Don for having us involved in the shenanigans. It was also great to see so many toy fiends and friends, sorry for the lack of Cliff and a short Sean visit.

The SDCC leftovers should be going up soon, so keep checking the BIGCARTEL for some MH goodness.

SDCC!

2011-07-17T23:27:00.003-04:00

Toxic Catalyst was awesome!

2010-08-25T15:24:00.002-04:00

So we survived curating the Toxic Catalyst show, it was a awe inspiring showing of some well established resin artists as well as some you've probably never heard of. Everyone delivered some of their best work yet and it was a blast displaying all the resin goodness together in one place. The show should be up at the old Super 7 store for a few more weeks so check it out. If you can't make it to Japantown here's some thorough coverage and the figures are up in the Super 7 webstore.

They are (L to R) Vic Smelt, Woolson Quaid, G. L. Hutton

We can't thank Super 7 enough for hosting such a spectacular amassing of artists and we will hopefully do it again in the future.

Toxic Catalyst!

2010-08-13T20:09:00.002-04:00

You may have seen this already, but here it is again! A few months ago, Super7 asked to curate a resin group show, and we happily obliged! We set out to invite the best and brightest of the resin toy designers, from the OGs like Le Merde and Bob Conge and Sucklord to guys who are maybe just dipping their toes into the resin pool, but whose work really stands out. We're extremely excited by the mountain of amazing work that keeps pouring in and it's amazing to see how much the "scene" has grown. Come on out to the OLD Super7 location (typo on the card) August 21 to hang out with us and talk shop!

Special Victims Unit @ Grasshut

2010-08-07T20:12:00.001-04:00

Our opening at Grasshut was a success! Here are a few pics of the show and the pieces are available at the Grasshut shop. If anyone is in Portland OR in the next month you can go check them out at Grasshut which is located inside Floating World Comics 20 NW 5th Ave. #101 Portland, OR 97209 .
For the show, we created 2 colorways called "Black Hole Fishing Lure" and "Summer Salad"... I think you can figure out which is which.

2010-07-29T20:44:00.000-04:00

So we survived another grueling week of Comic Con. It was great seeing everyone again and meeting new people in the toys scene. We would like to send an especially big THANKS to the legendary Paul Kaiju for being our gracious host for the week and also Don of Fig-Lab, Matt from Onell, and Jesse of Rawshark for letting us participate in the Global Figure Symposium 2010.
One of our most exciting projects for the con was a collaboration with Real x Head, If you weren't able to pick one up there will be more releases in the future so keep an eye out.
All MH product that didn't sell at the con is up in the shop right now.

Ok, so it's the same toy from before, but now it's de-blurred. Still just a test shot, not sure what direction we're going in for the first release. We'll have a few at SDCC for sure though, along with kind of a lot of other new stuff.

If you follow our Flickr page (and you should, because we're way better at updating that than this poor blog), you've seen that we've been posting a bunch of WIPs for our latest special release of the Mysterious Ape. I just wanted to show a bit of my paint process...it isn't anything terribly fancy, but I had my camera sitting there and thought, well why not? You can check out the pics here.

So, where can I get one of these fine simian specimens, you may ask? Why, this Saturday (tomorrow) March 20 at Super7 (online and in-store)! We've done a slightly larger run than normal, so hopefully everyone who wants one can get one. I feel he's a nice compliment to the MISHKA Ape we did last month (pics here), and of course he GLOWS so it's win-win either way!

MONSTREGARAGE SALE!

2009-03-13T13:12:00.004-04:00

The rumors are true; MONSTREHERO is headed west! Cliff is going to Portland and I (sean) am going to Los Angeles. MONSTREHERO will still exist, but now we can work on opposite ends of the west coast, slowly conquering until we meet in the middle.

So, as with most bi-coastal moves, one must part with certain material possessions to lighten the burden. We've decided to sift through our cavernous reserves of MONSTRE-goodness and find items that we think we can part with.

Hence, the MONSTRE-GARAGE SALE. Starting this Sunday night, 3-15-09, we're going to have a bunch of older toys on super sale. I'm talking $15 blindbag pantsmonstres here.

Hey everybody,
We've finally recovered from our New York excursion. All in all it was a great trip; we got to meet some awesome people, eat some amazing food, freeze our Florida butts off, see some great art...and some not so great art.

We've got some really exciting projects lined up for the next few months, some shows and some super limited collab releases. Be sure to keep an eye on your email for our newsletter to keep up to date on everything Monstre-related.

Check out our Flickr to see some fun pictures like these:

Big thanks to everyone we met in NY

Here's some cool news: we're working with Super7 to bring out a kickass new victim!

http://super7store.com/community/blog.php?&post_Id=296

This guy is cast in translucent orange resin with random black drips all over his poor body, with gold spray on his limbs and face, and glowy eyes! His clear pearly-turquoise flame fits snug on his body and has a gold spray accent as well.

This guy drops on Feb 7, so mark your calendars!

Stage II up on the MONSTRESHOP

2009-01-03T19:07:00.004-05:00

Just a quick note to say that the long-awaited PANTSMONSTRE STAGE II is now available on the MONSTREHERO MONSTRESHOP! This guy is 6 inches of fearsome majesty and can be terrorizing your other toys before you know it!

PANTSMONSTRES Stage II on sale Saturday!

2008-12-31T20:46:00.003-05:00

Hey y'all. This Saturday, January the 3rd 2009, is a most momentous day. At approximately 7.00 PM eastern time, our newest addition to the MONSTREHERO family will be introduced to the world.
He is called Codename: PANTSMONSTRE STAGE II, and he will melt your face with his gnarled, slimey, barnacled glory.
He's bringing friends, too, like two new Mini Pants, a special extra-mossy DUO, and a rainbow sherbert homage.
Stay tuned to the MONSTRESHOP for your chance to grab these guys.

more INTERGALADIATOR

2008-12-11T01:23:00.005-05:00

Here are some more INTERGALADIATOR shots. He's sort of been on the back burner for the last month or two while we geared up on other projects. Did some work on him today and I'm pretty psyched. I think he's our most ambitious figure yet, with a removable helmet, removable head/guts, movable arms and interchangeable accessories. If all goes according to plan, of course...

MONSTREPRINTS!

2008-12-10T01:57:00.003-05:00

Hey everyone, just wanted to announce our first ever print sale! We've always loved old school printmaking (we both have degrees in it..) and we've been wanting to do some prints for awhile. Cliff has created three new lithographs; Codename P.A.N.T.s "Arrival", Visible P.A.N.T.s and a Victim #1 print with different sprayed texts! I've embellished a linocut of AXEFACE and SKULLMASTER with white ink for that extra comic book-y flavour. We hope you enjoy!

MONSTREHERO IN MIAMI!

2008-12-08T22:59:00.012-05:00

So this past weekend us MONSTREHERO boys ventured down to dark, terrible Miami for the KAIJU MONSTER INVASION show at the Art Center of South Florida presented by Harold Golen Gallery. It was a sweet show with a lot of cool pieces, most notable the amazing 14 foot fiberglass Darkron made by Carlos Enriquez Gonzales. The thing was a beast, and was definitely the highlight for the many gallery visitors. We managed to sneak a few of our pieces in as well, and we were honored to share a cabinet with pieces from Le Merde, Bwana Spoons, Mark Nagata, Bob Conge, the boys from Gargamel and others.

We also managed to get away from the art shenanigans surrounding Art Base and retreat to Fort Lauderdale to ride their famous velodrome! Fun was had by all. Dig my white slipons and revealing bike shorts.

We should have most of the figures available for sale mid-January after the show ends, so please sign up for the email list if you haven't already if you'd like to be informed of further news and sales.

On with the pics (more on the flickr)!

small updates

2008-10-09T00:28:00.006-04:00

Just a few quick little updates over here at MONSTREHERO STUDIOS.
--Our little store seemed to have worked out pretty well. We'll most likely keep it in some form for the time being. We still have a few Monochrome Victims and Pantsmonstre one-offs, in case anyone is interested.
---Here are a few shots of a special three-part victim set we did on special commission. Each victim and flame gets progressivly darker. I think they turned out pretty neat.

---And here is a sneak preview of my (sean's) new figure, tenatively titled INTERGALADIATOR. He's a spacey russel crowey type guy who hunts PANTSMONSTRES. He's going to be packed full of surprises, so he should be a pretty awesome little guy when done.
