Sparkly Mice release tonight at midnight!

Releasing tonight at 12 midnight Est. time in the online STORE will be the Series 1 Sucio Sparkly Mice. Sparkly Mouse Sucio made his debut at this year's Toy Fair NYC earlier this month and be released in a edition size of 10 pieces. There will be 5 glow in the dark chases hidden in the series so make sure if you grab one you put it under the light to see if you got one. Each mouse will be numbered and signed on there bottoms by artist/sculptor/creator Eric Nocella Diaz, and there is no limit per buyer.

There will also be some more Series 2 Sparkly Cats Tuttz Mini's headed to the online store in the following week as well since there are still 15 left to release in the Edition size of 25. If you wonder why I break up all the series instead of just doing one big drop, it's because I can focus on each individual resin piece and put a little extra effort in making it as special as possible for the collectors. It's also less wear and tear in the long run to get all the work done properly and not wind up over exhausting myself and eventually put out more work. Eventually there won't be any more crazy releases and I will just announce when new items are added to the online store.

Pharaoh Hound Mini's!

There are a few Series 3 Pharaoh Hound Mini's in the online STORE that were on display at the Medialia Gallery and at the Creative Factor booth at Toy Fair in NYC.

Up next - Sparkly Sucio Mice! Edition of 10!

Sparkly Cats Series 2! (SOLD OUT!)

The online STORE will open tonight (Friday Feb. 21) at 10PM Est. time releasing 5 (#'s 1 - 5) Series 2 Sparkly Cats Tuttz Mini's. Then it will open again on Sunday Feb. 23 at 10PM Est. time and release Sparkly Cats #'s 6 - 10. Series 2 will be a full edition of 25 Tuttz Mini's in small releases and will feature a few new colorways and will also have the usual hidden glow in the dark chases throughout the entire series. I won't say which ones will glow in the dark so make sure if you get one you put it under the light and charge it to see if you've got a chase figure. If you want to see specific colors in the rest of the release you can shout them out on myTwitter account -> twitter.com/ArgonautResins or email me direct at argonautresins(at)gmail.com.

Toy Fair 2014!

I will be at Toy Fair (in NYC's Jacob Javitt's center) once again this year at the Creative Factor booth run by Brett Klisch from Feb. 16th - 19th. Brett has been running the Creative Factor booth for ten years now and has always been gracious enough to always invite me to partake in this huge annual event for the toy industry. Below are some of the resin items I will have with me at my table for this year's event and if you are at the show please come by to talk shop. Keep an eye on this post and I will update it with more images through the week.

SOLD OUT!

The Series 1 edition of 25 Sparkly Cats Tuttz Mini's have sold out. THANK YOU!
The good news is I have another series planned with some newer dynamic styles and colors and will repeat a few of the Series 1 color ways for those of you who have missed out on the first release. So stay tuned for more crazy sparkly goodness! If you have any questions about these new clear tint series - you can email me directly at argonautresins(at)gmail.com and I will get back to you asap.

Here is a work in progress teaser of what to expect in Sparkly Cats Series 2!

...and it glows in the dark too!

Sparkly Cats!

The brand new Tuttz Mini Sparkly Cats will be releasing all this week and next with a edition size of 25 pieces. There will also be a few glow in the dark chase cats hidden within the entire series. This batch of resins will be released in multiple waves and not be blind boxed and I will not say which ones are GID's so if you get one it will be a surprise. The images below will give an idea of what most of the series will look like and if you want to see specific colors included please shout it out on my Twitter, Instagram or FaceBook pages...I'm always listening to what my awesome and supportive collectors have to say.

If you have any questions on this new series you can email me (END) at argonautresins(at)gmail.com and I will do my best to get back to you asap.

What was in those New Years Hunt blindboxes?

I had a lot of fun making the blind boxed New Years Hunt Tuttz Mini sparkly cats that sold out pretty fast. Here are some images of what was in the edition of 25 gift wrapped packages below.
Since both the the Holiday Hunt (edition of 25) and the New Years Hunt were big successes and the fan base is growing I will do another series of sparkly Tuttz Mini's starting later this week and these will not be blind boxed. The edition size will be another 25 and I will also be adding in a bunch of glow in the dark pieces so if you missed out - get ready for another round of cool cats. The new release will take place in the Argonaut Resins online STORE and if you have any questions about the release you can email me directly at argonautresins(at)gmail.com

On another note I will be at Toy Fair NYC (Javitts Center) early next month Feb. 16th - 19th at the Creative Factor booth. I will have a full on post about this as the date gets closer so stay tuned!

Happy New Year!

Thanks for a great year!
No year in review, no reflections as it's all about the future - moving forward and all about what's next. Argo had good, fun and exciting year and here's to BIG things in 2014. Wishing you all a Happy New Year from Argonaut Resins...Surprise!

2013 New Years Hunt Starts NOW!

Due to the success of this year's annual Christmas Holiday Hunt (sold out) gift wrapped blind boxes and a lot of folks being mad at me because they couldn't get one - the 2013 New Years Hunt will start right NOW!
The plan was to start it a little sooner but my air compressor broke down pretty bad and I had to raise some emergency funds with a few quick sales to get a brand new one (THANK YOU ALL!!!) Having such a dang cool collector base who came through big time I was able to get back up to speed. The new gift wrapped blind boxed series will be a edition of 25 resin Tuttz Mini's similar to what was released in the earlier Holiday Hunt and I will do my best to make them all special. The wave will drop at random hours and will consist of all clear tints and some will also be glow in the dark (GID) chases and the price will stay the same - $40 each shipped in the US (all overseas orders will be emailed directly for proper shipping costs and methods for shipping).
Below is a teaser sample of what to expect and what the New Years Hunt blind boxed gift wrapping will look like. Since I am behind schedule I will try my best to drop a few random blind boxes every day and the release will go past New Years - so GOOD LUCK and Happy Hunting!!!

The Terminators Are Back! (Sold Out)

Series 2 of the Terminator Tuttz Mini customs collabo with artist Leroy Wilkes of Kilroy's Attic drops this Tuesday Dec. 24th (Christmas Eve) at 9PM Est. time in the Argonaut Resins online STORE. The edition size of this series is 6 clear tint outer shell Tuttz cat figurine castings over - 1 pearlescent ghost styled glow in the dark, another 4 with metal cold cast skeletons and 1 x-ray styled beige bone colored casting. The interior skeleton design was carved from an actual blank resin Tuttz Mini I gave to Leroy specifically for this custom project, so you get 2 sculptures in 1. Each Terminator Tuttz Mini custom comes with signed and numbered custom packaging and certificates of authenticity and all six designs are different metals and styles. The first limited Series of Tuttz Terminators (edition of 4 - released at the NYC Comic Con this past October) have sold out.  
Are you scheduled for Termination?

 Pearlescent Ghost GID.
