CC2016_STRWASChewie

Here is the latest edition of artist Mark Todd’s first ever toy and first ever sculpture, a take on Chewie of Star Wras. His original was molded and then cast in resin and hand painted by Mark as well. The card back is comprised of 2 riso graph prints on front and back for that very indie zine feel. 3.75" scale carded figure. Only 30 made and each is signed and numbered. 
 
Priced at US$55 apiece (tax included), this item will be made available at DKE Toys’ Booth #J11 for COMPLEX CON (Nov 5-6, 2016) in Long Beach, California.
