SURPRISE art toy announcement

I don't want to let too much out of the bag, but artist Daniel Danger and Gallery1988 have partnered up to release Danger's first full-scale art toy, a SUPER limited and BEAUTIFUL hand-crafted piece. This thing has to be seen to be believed. I, as a fan of Daniel's, have been waiting tirelessly for him to create his own toy, so when he brought up the idea, I couldn't have said yes quick enough. Produced by our friends at Pretty In Plastic, this one will go down in the record books, even if there aren't going to be many made!
Here's the sketch from Daniel that the toy is based off:



I want to keep some mystery, so here is an in-progress shot of an early prototype of the toy -



We had some painting and tweaks since then, but you can get that early excitement going from the pics for sure! This will be first available at his opening reception next Thursday, August 5th. Each toy will also come with a hand embellished print, and we're talking LIMITED LIMITED LIMITED....email us at gallery1988@aol.com if you'd be interested and we can start taking names...

R U EXCITED?
