Take a journey through the mind of Ron English, as he showcases his never before displayed utilitarian toy drawings and turnarounds, this June at the Clutter Gallery.

Montreal's Yves Larouche Galerie d'art has a new exhibit opening this Saturday, June 8th. Titled Butcher's Hook, the show features the works of artists Jon Todd and Jesse Hazelip.

Alastair of the Dominators is the name of Patrick Wong's 7" custom Dude he created for Dream in Plastic's upcoming custom show. Alastair is a hockey stick- weilding member of the Dominators, a gang who defends their turf while decked out in orange monkey jackets, brown hats & sneakers. For this particular custom Patrick drew inspiration from Sol Yurick's 1965 novel The Warriors (later made into a film of the same name). Patrick modified this custom by cutting the eyes.

Wow! Don P has been pretty busy as of late releasing quite a few new customs. Here is another custom from Don, this time for the G.I. Joe Custom Show at SubUrban Vinyl! For this custom, Don used the G.I. Joe character Falcon for inspiration. Titled Soldier Dog: Falcon, Don transforms the Green Beret into a cigar smoking canine.

SoKo Cat has been added to the roster for SubUrban Vinyl's  G.I. Joe Custom Show. She customized two G.I. Joe vinyl figures for the group show, transforming them into Star Trek: The Next Generation's Geordi La Forge (Hello Geordi) & everyone's favorite boss J. Jonah Jameson from Spider-Man (JJ). SoKo used G.I. Joe's Snake Eyes for Hello Geordi & Duke for JJ.
