As a comic book junkie, I would pretty much do anything I can to get my hands on all of these Comic Stripped designer toys. A customized collection, each toy has been 'stripped' down to reveal a comic scene (or two) beneath its 'skin.'
A fantastic concept that has been extremely well-executed, the Comic Stripped customized designer toy collection was created by VICEone. This talented German artist essentially combined two of his loves into one: comics and designer toys. A mixed media art project, the Comic Stripped customized designer toy collection was made using apoxy clay, collage technique, acrylic paint and decals.
From Spiderman to The Simpsons and everything in between, the Comic Stripped customized collection seems to have covered it all. I think I may have to put on my crafty cap and try to make some of my own.
