So yesterday I missed this article that was sent to me from the PR over at Mezco (sorry).  There is also going to be an art show at SDCC – the cool thing about this show is that its coming to NYC after wards!  So that’s why I’m posting it, personally we haven’t posted anything about SDCC cause well we’re not going, and we’re all bitter about it.  Hopefully we can go next year!

Here is the information about the Mezco Art Show..  (hopefully the art show location for the NYC show will be revealed soon)
San Diego- What do you get when you mix Mez-Itz, the hot new Designer
Vinyl toy from Mezco, and 60 famous artists, designers, and F/X artists?
The Mez-Itz Art Show!

Conceived as a celebration of its new collectible toy line, the Mez-Itz
Art Show displays the amazing versatility of the Mez-Itz deceivingly
simple design. Rather than only turning to artists to create custom
figures, Mezco thought outside the box and reached out to designers and
F/X artists as well. Some of the participants are:

• Voltaire
• Trevor Zammit
• Tish & Snooky / Manic Panic
• Tim Gore

Each was supplied with a blank white vinyl figure and given one mandate;
make it cool. The results are breathtaking. A Cyclops stares forlornly
at a Val Kilmer Doc Holiday, an evil teddy bear stands beside a crystal
covered zombie Michael Jackson. A cigar smoking cherub brushes wings
with Nosferatu as a clockwork figure who could be related to Tic-Tock of
Oz looks on. Each design seems better than the next, a true tour de
force of artistic versatility.

It all happens at booth 4145 at the epicenter of pop culture known as
San Diego Comic Con. This year the festivities from July 22nd-26th and
the Mez-Itz will be displayed for the entirety of the convention.
Afterwards, the Mez-Itz will be displayed at a New York location that
has yet to be revealed.
