And this is the last series of Tim Burton´s Tragic Toys for Girls and Boys i got thos christmas. I know i am missing Stick Boy and Match Girl and Voodoo Girl but those are too rare and expensive and i am really happy to have the most of this series. This characters really stand out on the shelf.
The first character here is the Pin Cushion Queen. She is the biggest of them all thanks to her chair and deffinetly, she is my favorite. She is ghostly and colorfull enough thanks to all those pins covering her and her chair have this “melty” texture that makes her looks like a candy on top of some cake. The details are nice and intrincate, with each stitch both sculpted and painted and she even comes with a base for consistency.
Then is the Brie Boy. He is a chese… and his body have a pose with good movement, thiny legs and a HUGE head. I am afraid to broke him but his head have the most detail in here with an odd and melty texture and paint.
His base is a wooden floor, like Pin Cushion and Penguin Boy, and yet, the wooden looks totally different to those characters. I love how all this kids have a unique base.
Next is the Staring Girl. While her body and hair have a really good sculpt and paint, i am not sure i like too much the bagds under her eyes. They are sculpted but i wish they looked more like Toxic Boy eyes instead of having this odd purple strips. I think she is my least favorite of the team just because she is the most “normal” looking.
I have to point something, all this figures have a really sloppy and messy paint. Thats pretty evident on Brie Boy shirt, all the strips looks like painted by a kid. But i really dont mind…the paint on all this characters is messy just like Tim Burton´s water colors and it helps to give them an extra texture of a 3D painting coming to life.
I am going to store them in theys boxes since i am afraid to broke the tiny legs of all this kids but i am loving each one of them. They reminds me while i fall in love of Tim Burton when i was a kid.
