Psychedelic One-Off Vinyl Toys

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

MicBraining and Mechnoiz Toys Joined for the 'Psychedelic Judge'

— January 4, 2021 — Art & Design
MicBraining, an artist that specializes in vinyl collectibles, joined forces with Mechnoiz Toys to come up with an exclusive launch that boasts a bold multicolored design that's sure to add some psychedelic oomph to any collection.

The collaborative toy is a twist on the original 'Ancient Judge' from Mechnoiz Toys, bringing collectors the 'Psychedelic Judge' as a one-off release. To create the toy, MicBraining and Mechnoiz Toys used a "dark soft vinyl cast," and then treated it with a range of colorful paints that are sprayed on for a cohesive ombre design.

The Psychedelic Judge measures in at 10.6 inches tall, and boasts nine points of articulation—allowing collectors to customize the stance of the toy. In its hand, the vinyl holds a bright sword that matches its colorful design, and can include an "interchangeable roller cone drill arm."
