I’ve recently had a few inquiries about XENOMOFOS. Some have come from visitors to this blog, curious about them due to the random header banners I use; and others who have been aware of the project for some time and have been seeking an update. The short answer is simple. YES! XENOMOFOS, after some delays, are definitely still alive and well!  They’ve just been put on hold as dictated by real life concerns; but soon I will be in a position to return to working on this project once again. …and I’m looking forward to it.But, hey… what are XENOMOFOS, anyway?

I’m glad you asked. XENOMOFOS is a project I’ve been working on for some time now and are tribute items dedicated to the weird and wonderful world of Mexican bootleg toys. It’s no secret Mexican bootleggers are renowned for their cheap knock-off product and XENOMOFOS will celebrate this clandestine industry with limited releases. Satire and parody are paramount with these unashamedly unlicenced reproductions of reproductions (of reproductions of reproductions…). The pair of 5 inch Three Headed XENOMOFOS shown above are early inhouse concept and viability studies for the project. It’s since evolved beyond this stage with fresh masters generated. I’ll have more information regarding progress later this year. Watch this space. XENOMOFOS are coming!
