SDCC 2015: DKE's Comic-Con Exclusive Designer Toy Revolution


DKE are like the uber-keepers of awesome art toy projects, not only supporting this ever evolving movement, but pushing it up hill as if it were the proverbial giant boulder ready to roll back on them if they slip for an instant. It's a massive undertaking, and most likely one that few people know is even happening, so at least once a year, we get to thank them by showing off all their amazing San Diego Comic-Con Exclusives ....and I will start the slow clap!

Lucky by Mike Egan

Edition of 20 - $100 each 
This is a follow up to last year’s series of Bones resin figures on hand painted backer cards. Last year DKE had a vintage Star Wars style card for the Bones figure so this year we have Lucky on a Power of the Force inspired card. Hand cast resin figure by Garret Ziegler from BlockHeads toys. Card back hand painted by Mike Egan. With specially sculpted wings by George Gaspar.

Bad MOOD by Broke1 x AWOL ONE
Yes! This is a hand cast figure. A collab with Broke1 aka Broken Pidgeon and AWOL One who also did the card back illustration. MOOD is DOOM backwards GET IT? 3.75 inches tall. Hand made resin in custom packaging.


Edition of 20 - $55
Bad Acid by MannyX – Iconoclast Toys
Hand cast and hand painted by MannyX and his new brand Iconoclast Toys. There are lots of variations in the color so we are pretty sure this is a multiple color resin pour. This is a follow up to his Black Bart figure. Bootleg Bart has hundreds and hundreds of posts on IG each with a unique bootleg Bart Simpsons shirt. The card back is based on the original 80s Mattel Simpsons line. Figure is to scale as well at about 3.5 inches.


Hand cast and painted 3 ¾” carded figure. Based loosely on the Mars Attack Alien, Falcon Toys has mashed this one up with expert detail. Only 15 made $85 each

Pimp2-D2’s Big Score Pimp Speeder with Chauffeur by Manly Art
New from Manly Art! Pimp2-D2’s Pimp Speeder! This exclusive DKE Toys release features a slick purple paint job with custom orange tinted wind screen, custom seats, and 3 different hood design decals for you to choose from. Now Pimp2-D2 can float along in style with his personal chauffeur on the Pimp Speeder’s Pimp-Glide Suspension on his never-ending quest to make the galaxy fly as can be! There’s even a compartment for storing pimp canes, pimp hat, weapons and anything else a pimpin’ droid might need.   R2 figure not included but it does come with exclusive chauffeur figure. If you got the c3pHO figure or Pimp2D2 then you gotta have this one. The catch is there are only 30 of them and they each use a vintage star wars landspeeder from 1977.

Django Uncloned “Heirloom Edition” by Good For Your Toys x Robin VanValkenburgh

Last year Good For You released their DJango Fett figure (the D is silent) which of course is a mash up of everyone’s favorite Star Wars character and the hero from DJango Unchained. It completely sold out at SDCC by the second day. So this year they collaborated with another one of our favorites, Robin VanValkenburgh. This is a mash up with her western themed Bun Slinger. She makes these each by hand. They are ceramic, 16 inches tall. Hand painted. Only 20, $110.
