"SUPATOY" new figure from Axel Mahe
Axel Mahe aka SUPACAT is a graphic designer/ illustrator from France, who has also tried his hand at come customizing... he has tried various media like the Dunny, Qee, Skateboard, Canvas etc. ...but one day he got tired of always seeing the same art on the same toy and thought to himself "why not make a design myself, to customize and pass along to all my friends to do as well"... and that is what he did and what came from it is the figure titled "SUPATOY". This is a small figure of about 4" tall (10cm) and has a removable head and arms, not to mention an awesome mask that is interchangeable to further customize.
Axel made the template, and then a friend of his, Julian Duval, who works for an animation agency in Montpellier, turned it into a 3D model. Following that, Axel made the 3D sculpture from a 3D printer. He has got PlayArt (Nantes) producing this figure as we speak and artists such as Bunka, Niark, Tougui, Tizieu, Maw and many others talents from FRANCE who are on board! Look for this in the near future, Axel is hoping for a series of about 16 designers and they will most likley retail for around the same price as a Dunny or Qee, but in the mean time hit up his Facebook page HERE, and Blog HERE for all kinds of photos and info, and you can also get the template for this toy HERE to give it a crack yourself!
