Mike Sutfin's first version of his Mad Battle Man figure will be exclusively available at San Diego Comic Con at the Toy Tokyo booth, #5437. This is the inaugural release from Reckless Toys. Limited to 60 pieces worldwide, the over-9-inch-tall, soft-vinyl figure will go on sale on Preview Night, Wednesday, July 21, for $98. Please see detail pics in the previous post.

Though this "Dusk" version will only be available in San Diego, Reckless Club members will be contacted following the convention with special information.

After over a year in development, artist Mike Sutfin's first soft vinyl toy, the MadBattleMan, is ready to be released to toy heads across the planet. The first colorway, which Sutfin has deemed "Dusk," is absolutely stunning -- easily one of the most elaborate production paint jobs in the history of the genre. On top of a mango-orange vinyl, Mr. Sutfin painstakingly hand-painted a model for the factory and provided a 14-step instruction file, both of which were used to make a spray-for-spray, brushstroke-for-brushstroke replication of his masterpiece. The production paint job is shown here, and the sheer amount of handcraft on this piece is extraordinary.

Production will be very limited, and it will be available at San Diego Comic Con at a to-be-announced location. Please check back here in the coming days, or e-mail justin@toypunks.com for more information. The toy stands at more than 9 inches tall.
