If you are not a fan of amazingly cool & cute new sculpts, then please do not click through and see more information about
Muffinman's forthcoming "HÜG" figure. Seriously, I don't know if you can handle it, so you have to decide yourself...but choose carefully...
Now that we've got the squares out of the way, we can get down to brass tacks! Or, in this case, beautifully sculpted resin figures! Let's meet the newest member of the Muffinman family, "HÜG"…
As you can see above, he's a versatile creature. Not only can "HÜG" sit on his bum but he can also balance on his head (pictured above right, showing off his backside). But that's really not all this adorable beastie can do… he's a rotocasted resin creature with a slightly weighted posterior, which allows you to spin him around a bit like a top. There's even a video you can watch of the little guy in action (HERE)!
Originally the eye details were sculpted in place on the piece, but Muffinman removed them to allow a great variety of express eye designs… The hand-painted version on the above left is actually quite similar to what the sculpted version looked like. And then, of course, as pictured above left, it seems there are two different sizes in the works! The full-size and pocket-size, both completely sculpted from scratch by Muffinman, are testaments to his skill, though the design speaks to his infinite creativity… a bit of a 'best of both worlds' scenario if you ask me! Keep an eye on Muffinman's Instagram feed and Blog for more information, as we understand these pieces will hopefully be released in the near future!
