Sam Flores Fatima

Sam Flores (re)-released his iconic Fatima and apparently these should be the last of them. I suppose it is mainly due to popular demand that we see a steady boom of interest and fans for this iconic character of his, resulting in a release of two new colourways; navy blue and violet (limited edition of 300 pieces each).

I was never really into this piece, apart from succumbing to purchasing a custom Fatima by Dear Earthling (as previously mentioned here). Many feel that the sculpt would make an excellent custom platform. I somehow feel otherwise and the reason being so is because it originally is already a beautiful piece of vinyl.

I personally like the previous releases:

customs to date

Dear Earthling Custom Treedweller "Goddessa"

Dear Earthling Custom Fatima "Grace"

Motorbot Custom Bunniguru

I was fortunate enough to snag the Dear Earthling customs off the previous first owners, particularly the his infamous Treedweller. It's one of his first and best customs, personally and I absolutely love it.

As far as Motorbot's styles, I prefer this the most. I suppose I am quite a minimalist to a certain extent. Though I must admit his usual wood style is his trademark and deserves much praises.
