Refreshments and treats will be served and every person who attends the event in a Halloween costume receives a free "Ghostly" blind box figure*.
*"Ghostly" blind boxes include Ghost land, Boooyah Ghosts and Mini Totem Doppelganger blind box figures only.
Here's the Gordo press release:
mphlabs and Brent Nolasco presents Gordo, the pot bellied beast:"Just off of Main Street, in every town, lives a foraging monster, named Gordo. You can find him standing over a box of leftovers, fishing out that last crumb, and licking the containers dry. His will to eat overcomes his need to stop, always chasing the next tasty snack. Backyards and garbage cans are his buffet. After a long day of gorging, he falls into a food coma, only to awake hungry and repeat the cycle. His stomach is a bottomless pit. Who knows what he will eat next."Gordo stands at 5 inches tall and is made of hand casted resin. The Blue Orchid edition is entirely hand painted by the artist so no two will be exactly alike. Gordo will retail for $75 and will be available exclusively at myplasticheart.com

Brent Nolasco x mphlabs - Gordo



Proto Monday >> Brent Nolasco x mphlabs - Gordo
Today on Proto Monday, we’re happy to bring you the first complete look at Brent Nolasco’s first original figure, Gordo, dropping shortly as a 5” limited-edition resin from mphlabs. This portly beastie is a strong translation of Brent’s art to 3D with nicely rendered details. If you’re familiar with Brent’s work, you’ll recognize Gordo as his creation right away. Congratulations to Brent on his long-awaited and much deserved first opportunity at a production toy. More news on Gordo shortly.
