Max Toy x Paul Komoda Alien Xam project

Over the last year, I’ve had the honor with working with one of Hollywood’s best sculptor and artist Paul Komoda ! The other day, I was blown away by his progress on our new Alien Xam (2.0) Here’s a sneak peek at it !

Plans are for full sofubi production in Tokyo. I’m not quite sure about final release dates because of the virus and shipping delays but we’ll try to post progress as Paul moves along on Xam ! I don’t know about you guys but this thing is beautiful !

Coatlicue Customs Frank Mysterio

Today I am offering 5 uniquely painted figures called “Coatlicue”. They are (pron. Co-at-li-cu-e) or ‘Serpent Skirt’ was a major deity in the Aztec pantheon and regarded as the earth-mother goddess. Produced by Mexican artist Frank Mysterio – https://frankmysterio.bigcartel.com/

I wanted to approach each one differently … rainbow, metallic, and even gold leaf !

8 inches tall by 5 inches wide. Cast in Hong Kong.

Updates:
I’ve decided to cancel ALL my in person shows for 2020. While Dcon may still be going forward, to be honest, and with available news on Coivd, I don’t see how I can even attend ANY indoor events without risk. I do have a pre existing condition plus would not want to pass it along to my mother or family. Of course, I wait for Dcon to make their final decisions.
=================================
My exhibit Kaiju vs Heroes is now closed after a 10 month run at JANM. Limited supplies on items from the show.
Look for NEW items coming very soon from JANM store ( online )
Go to the museums web store now to buy these exclusive items and help support the museum !
Toy Karma, my first art book is now on sale. Hardcover version, 6×8 inches, and 60 full color pages. Details my toy life and career but also how the internment of my parents and their families during World War 2 affected my life.

Max Toy Updates

Hi Max Toy Fans !
Let’s start with the not great news … obviously everyone is aware of the virus and with much discussion with my family, i have decided to cancel any con attendance for the next few months.. This includes the upcoming Creature Bazaar in Glendale ;-(
Super bummed.
Besides taking care of my 93 year old mother, I am also in the “elderly” group of over 50+ year olds to avoid crowds (I don’t know how I made it to that group ! )
I wish everyone to stay healthy and well out there !
I do have some customs and new releases coming up this month ( info below ) .. so hopefully you guys are able to support me that way.
In fact, for all Artists out there,  I hope you can continue to support them.. in any way you can…
Your Kaiju Pal,
Mark
