    Default South Africa's First Locally Produced and Manufactured Designer Resin Toy



    I am extremely proud to announce Keg O' Boom, South Africa's First Locally Produced and Manufactured Designer Resin Toy.
    This is the realisation of a couple years worth or work and dreams!
    For more information and to buy one, please head over to www.thegiven.co.za/kegoboom
    The figure is limited to only 50 pieces though so I suggest you act fast.
    These wont be around for very long!

    It looks cute but what makes it special?

    Is it from a TV show? A game? Some sort of pop-culture reminiscence?

    Or just a snazzy figurine?

    Who's it aimed at?

    I think you paint it yourself and then put it on your desk next to your Big Daddy & Alduin Statue...

    Exactly, I figured some may not get it, as it is a specific target market...
    There is a small but growing sub culture emerging in South Africa with an interest in resin/vinly toys.
    These toys are created by graphic designers and graffiti artists as collectors pieces.
    This is the first locally made piece.

    As much as I'd love to support you guys in this venture, I already have a PVC figure addiction which keeps my wallet empty. So I'm not even going to start looking at vinyl toys.

    Looks awesome though.

    Nice

    I hope it's successful.

    It looks like it's great quality. The novelty is unfortunately just lost on me
