For the
Dunny Hecho en México (or DMX) series 7 blind boxed custom series artist
Jump Jumper Ant created her "Senbazuru Clan" design, and now she's made a "Special Edition" version that's available directly from her! This wonderful samurai warrior features her signature resin doll eye feature, which have a Mona Lisa effect to them that seems to follow one around a room (
see it in action here), as well as all the little sculpted touches that made the original so memorable, like the beautifully crafted
geta wooden sandals and the traditional topknot haircut known as a
chonmage. It even has an immaculately executed
suji-kuma — the "sinew pattern" in makeup that is worn by the samurai hero in Japan's
kabuki theatre! With far more flambuount armor than the original, I maintain that its title — "Senbazuru Clan" — is a typo and it should be "Senbadzuru Clan", as "senbadzuru" (with the 'd' in it) is an actual Japanese term that translates to "a thousand paper cranes". Available now from the artist, those interested in this custom piece should send an email to
gahel [dot] igzz [at] gmail [dot] com for more info.
