Eyegore is a prototype of a toy figure by The Pizz being produced by Munky King. Although its not particularly my style, I find that the prototype shows great craftsmanship and the sculpting detail is superb. Here is a quote from the Pizz about the figure:

“Eyegore was birthed in a painting displayed in the Laguna Art Museum’s “Kustom Kulture” exhibition. The piece was named ” A Salute To The Holy Trinity Of Von Dutch, Ed “Big Daddy” Roth and Robt. Wms”… back in 1992. The piece was named ”

Featuring a little chrome eyeball dude, he’s an amalgamation of the three hot-rod maestros’ various signature creations and stylistic calling cards, so we got Dutch’s Flying Eyeball and Roth’s Rat Fink and William’s Cootchy Cootie, with a heavy mix of the three’s cult-like Wehrmacht obsession and the overabundance of chromage…He also harkens to my creation for the Sympathy For The Record Industry’s “Eldridge Cleaver” charactor…same hob-nailed biker boots and WWI-era StahlHelm…

Ray Brown, who really brings out the amiably goofy aspect of this little guy… “

Eyegore (prototype) will be at SDCC 2007, so check it out!
