That's such a pretty photo Stephe! Who did the custom pop for you?

I just need the Shadow Assassin and the Redux Monochrome (not sure if I really need this one) and I'll be done with my production set. There's a bunch of amazing customs I would like to have but I doubt I'll ever have the chance to own them.

Me, I'm the hack. I did it for myself. I finished it right before the Planet of the Apes pieces came out so every now and again I think of making another head...and then the feeling passes and I move on to something else.

As soon as the Pulp Fiction Crazy 88 is released I'm expecting a Crazy 88 Monkey Assassin pop custom.

I'm with Carol Lynn and going to be good with the originals that I have. The Redux are a re-release, so aren't different than the originals--other than the fact that they didn't match the paint exactly (which, for now, I can overlook 8-[ ). I was just glad to finally get to the bottom of the Redux mystery (thanks to Stephe and others who remembered the release).

Thanks for the heads up. I ordered one. The Crazy 88s look cool too, but they're sold out already.

So, I can't help but wonder, which Crazy 88 Monkeys did P+P use to make their customs? The 2 they have left for sale on their site are the Crazy 88 Blood Monkey (red face) which was a 1/192 and The Ghost of Crazy 88 Monkey (blue) which was a 1/496. So, which did they repaint? :-k

Either way, 30 Crazy 88 Monkeys have been re-purposed. :roflmao:

And I'm with everyone else that picked up the non-Funko Monkey Assassin--just too cool to pass up.

They used the blue ones. There was a picture on Twitter a while ago.

I would have guessed the blue ones because there were way more of them and the light blue would be much easier to paint over.

Finally heard back from Vinnie regarding the new Crazy 88 repaints. As we already suspected...

"Scott, we used the blue crazy 88 to do repaints. I have a few things planned coming up with the monkeys."

Can't wait to see what other monkey plans he has.
