Some day I want to write a real good article. One that is full of criticism that just rings true and leaves everybody nodding in agreement. One that addresses why we need more toys/sculptures/figures full of personality instead of platform this platform that, reduced to most common denominator so that every one can change it to their hearts content. Today is not that day. In fact it may never arrive. Sure, I get tired of seeing the same thing over and over again. I got into designer toys and all the stuff around 2005 and even back then it was already quite well on its way of becoming mainstream. Still, the days that I get excited about almost every toy that is going to be released are over. Wow, I realize I must sound like a grumpy old fart. Haha. Och well,… No, but really, my dissatisfaction with this business is one reason that drives this blog. How come that all these silly ghosts & monsters haven’t found their way around the community, yet? Why do I get the impression that its become all money and a lot less fun. I was going to invest some hope into the resin movement but I find myself sighing even there. I want more people with crazy and wild ideas. Wonderful idiosyncratic shapes and characters that tell stories that I couldn’t have come up with myself. So there you have it, I want more and more and more (thanks for making me realize, Chris Crocker), and then (((sam))) comes around with these. Simple, clean shapes, utterly reduced in their form, but full of fun. Yes, I want more.
