Mxyzptlk! (Pronounced "Mix-Yes-Spit-Lick.")
Long have you eluded me! At long last, you exist in three dimensional
form on my shelf. And the world was happy.
Mxy is my first concentrated foray into original sculpts. Except
for his hat that he stole from a Riddler figure, he is 100% Super
Sculpey. Originally, I had ambitious plans to create the standard
five points of articulation, but reality dictated that only his
head would turn. His two hairs are simply black thread dipped in
glue and hung on a curve so as to dry stiff.
I could not be happier with Mxy, even if he had more than one
joint. I've wanted to make Mxy for a long time, and I'm glad I
waited until I was up to the task. A special note of thanks goes
out to the amazing Mike
Danza for all the encouragement.
