Evilos (the maker of the Mickey in Carbonite figure) is back with a custom set of Pooh and his friends. I really like the gold color of Pooh and the writing of his name on the shirt is wonderful! Also amazing is the mohawk for Eeyore. I’ve always identified with Eeyore for some reason. Check out this set at his site evilos.com. Also check out all his other customs, like the aforementioned Mickey in Carbonite and his cool take on TRON. (Also note the Evil Pooh in the background. I believe this is his trademark, making character’s evil, and where he gets his name.) Right now you can pick up Pooh for $50 and Eeyore is $80. No word on Tigger as of yet. Thanks Evilos, your customs really raise the bar for everyone else!
A while back we posted about the custom Mickey in Carbonite we bought from Evilos, showing a picture we took of Boba Fett pushing him to his ship. Evilos has one-uped us by creating one rad diorama with several of the Star Wars Vinylmation characters and his custom Carbonite figure. As always he fills the piece with lots of extras, like the guns for everyone and Boba Fett’s cape (see 2nd picture). This is a great way to show off the custom piece he’s created. The base also plays the Imperial March. Check it out.
We also got a chance to talk to Evilos about several aspects of the diorama’s construction.
To purchase this detailed representation of the famous scene from Star Wars, just to to the eBay action here.Custom designer Evilos (@EvilosArt) has finished his latest project.
Borrowing from his previous, Mickey in Carbonite which we post about a little while ago, Evilos has made the figure inside the carbonite removable. Now not only Han Solo can go in, but Darth Vader can win and Luke Skywalker can fall for his trap. Or even Kermit the Frog.
For me, however, the most interesting part of the picture he put up was the laser gun that Boba Fett has. (Enlarged in top right of photo) That didn’t come with the original vinyl! I like it a lot.
Update: According to Evilos-
Beautifully done as always you can pick this piece of art up at Ebay: Vinylmation Custom Star Wars Han Solo In Carbonite ESB
