"Tuttz" figure from Argonaut Resin

Eric Nocella Diaz of Argonaut Resin just passed over some pictures of a new figure he is calling "Tuttz"! This figure made its debut at this past Toy Street and got some really positive feedback from all that attended the event. As you can see in the picture this figure has a very strong shape/aesthetic to it and really sets it apart from other pieces. The smooth sleek body and neck is contrast by hard lines of the head and legs make this form unique! Do keep in mind the above picture is just of the sculpt with different dyes added no paint, and these as they are look fantastic, it will be interesting to see what END does for the final figure release... time will tell. Check out the cool back story below, and stay tuned for more info as it comes our way!


Who is Tuttz...?
The Egyptian King Tutankhamun had a favorite cat entombed with him on the day of his demise. Unbeknownst to the world was that this particular cat drank the King’s immortality elixir. Modern day archeologists were quite surprised to find a empty sarcophagus next to King Tut in the shape of a...cat. When the ancient hieroglyphics on this small sarcophagus were translated - the name inscribed was Tuttz... Rumor has it King Tut named this cat after a pet chameleon he was given as a gift because it too could change colors. Have you seen Tuttz...?
