"I think it is nice to be a little magical. Today we need this. Nowadays we can think that this magic has been killed and I am try to make it survive as long as possible."
The story of Klaus Nomi is as strange as his on stage persona. Born in Immenstadt Germany, Klaus was a classically trained opera singer who somehow made his way into New York's underground club scene in the mid 80's. Known by his unmistakable countertenor operatic style, Klaus mixed his classical background with modern rock and experimental music and combined that with an otherworldly live performance. Creating his own history and mythos around his persona, Klaus became a character of his own making, an extraterrestrial from a world full of beings known only as Nomi's.

This is the fourth reveal of the previously announced Mechanized Mad Men, a new blind box series of custom Android figures designed by Mikie Graham and available exclusively through Dragatomi. As you can see, each MMM figure includes a fully customized 3" Android that comes powered by its own (removable) custom Playmobil representation of its creator... and Mikie went all out on each design, and for this particular version, Klaus is rocking one exceptional looking Android rocket ship... like something you would see at Disneyland... I just love the transformations that Mikie takes these Androids through... so creative and unique! These are set to release Wednesday May 15th at Dragatomi.com - stay tuned for tomorrows reveal!
