We don't see many new pieces out of the Spastik Plastik line out of FunKo anymore, but Vinnie of Wunderland War toys is still "Monkeying" around with them. Here is Vinnie with artist Erik Davison and myself at SDCC 2006 in the FlapJack Toys Booth.
Vinnie might look familiar to you ..he is also the drummer for the band
Less Than Jake.
Chris - Vocals/Guitar Roger - Bassist/Guitar
JR - Saxophone Buddy - Trombone
Vinnie - Drums
It's been a wild and crazy ride for Gainesville's Less Than Jake, who first met at the University Of Florida over a decade and a half ago. But instead of kicking their feet up and resting on their laurels, the ever-busy quintet have been working hard on the next chapter of Less Than Jake. Successfully extricating themselves from their major label contract (even though they still owed one more record to the label), they started their own label, Sleep It Off Records, and now are in the driver's seat. "After a decade an a half of being in the band, we are now our own bosses for real and the excitement of that can peel paint off the walls," says drummer Vinnie.
The newest Spastik's that Vinnie has designed are almost out in the market.
In fact his Crazy 88 - White Tiger (pictured on the top) was
recently offered to collector's on his
Wunderland War On-line Store for FREE.
Vinnie knows we are all having tough economic times ..
and put the White Tiger (a limited edition of 192)
out there for his loyal fans and loyal toy collector's ..
just for a penny and shipping charges.
Thank you Vinnie !!!
We can't wait to see what Spastik's you do next ..
oooh wait .. we don't have to .. WAIT !!!
I'm lovin all these new sketches .. especially the Clockwork !!I hope they all get made .. and real soon .
Keep Monkeying Around Buddy ..
We Love Them !!
