Tim Burton Vinyl Figure--Toxic Boy

Working under the personal supervision of Tim Burton, we have

nuance and detail of our past smaller models.

Stain Boy led the way. This month we bring you Oyster Boy and Toxic
Boy, two extremely popular characters from Burtons The Melancholy Death of Oyster Boy and Other Stories.

Packaged in full-color window boxes, these figures are sure to
command a prominent place on the shelves of both serious toy

* The original sculpts for our Tim Burton vinyl figures will be on
display at the Museum of Modern Art in NYC in November! http://tinyurl.com/yaqbdva
