Action figures have long been a perfect compliment to comic books, since every kid (or kid at heart) has that natural desire to act out adventures with their favorite heroes off the drawn page. Every so often, a unique style of figure comes along that breaks the mold, so to speak. Each Saturday, Donny B will be showcasing various offerings from Art Asylum’s take on the ‘block figure’, with a weekly spotlight on Minimates.
What better way to ring in the new year than with a Minimate designed especially to celebrate the holiday? With Ghost Busters 2 taking place on New Years Eve, the release of Janosz in Minimate form (who happens to be possessed, as you can tell from his facial expression) came packaged with 2 hair pieces – one of which sports a “Happy New Year” cap!
Behind the Image:
This is another very simple image. I took a photo of Janosz and superimposed him over a google’d image of fireworks. I played around with the colors a little to make him look as if the lighting was influenced by the background sky… and viola, instant New Years Janosz 🙂
