Vinyl Pulse spots Idle Hands

Vinyl Pulse has just posted Some Photos of Idle Hands at his big debut at Comic Con.

I heard the toy maker finished the paint job on this prototype right before the show ... the model has a lot of elaborate textural detail that we've been working to get exactly right.

My favorite part is that the toy maker brought it from China stuffed in his suitcase. I don't know why that's my favorite part ... well, I guess because you wouldn't expect to find this character in a suitcase. That's why.

And what if you had x-ray glasses and everyone was carrying these guys around in their suitcases ... and you didn't? I suspect that wouldn't be a very reassuring feeling. But that would probably the least of your worries if your x-ray glasses actually worked.

Comic Con 2008 - Toy Preview

The three official colorways

Rumor has it that "Idle Hands" will be making a special guest appearance at Comic Con in San Diego. This figure is coming straight from the toy factory (packed in a suitcase), and includes details like hand painted skin. The toy maker made a last minute effort to finish him to preview at the show. You'll be able to spot the little guy at the Toy Tokyo booth, # 5237.

Final sculpt with articulated arms for maximum "idleness"

Idle Hands is in production now and should be released later this year.
