ToyCyte: Toy Culture Collected

LA’s Munky King just put up the fantastic results of their DIY Pushers Show, based on the popular ‘Pusher’ figure by Thomas Han, released in a blank DIY form back in August. The show included custom Pushers by Joe Shea, Nathan Spoor, Elizabeth Ito, Marka27, Kii Arens, Racecar13, Axis, Brandt Peters, Dave Pressler, Paintmonster, Luke Cheuh, Blinky, Lana Crooks, Codak, Urban Medium, Moe Radke, Angry Woebots, Thomas Han, Nanami Cowdroy, Craig Barker, Ray Brown, Zoso, Peekaboo, Foox, Miss Mindy, Yoskay Yamamoto, Tako-Mon, Mari Inukai, Scott Belcastro, The Pizz, Dave Bondi, Antikillers, Cj Metzger, La Pride, Kiyoshi Nakazawa, Jesse Hernandez, Jim Mahfood, Retna, Plex Lowery, SANO, Le Merde, Ruel Brown, Martin Ontiveros and Lark Pien.

We love the variety of ways the artists interpreted this piece. Angry Woebots is “moss-some!” CJ Metzger maybe channelled Coraline. Some of the Pushers don’t even look like Pushers anymore. Definitely one of the coolest DIY figures and reactions to it lately. Pieces are currently priced from $150-$500 here.
