Burkley Chiswick – Dcon Exclusive

This year for Designer Con LA I have created a brand new mini edition customised art-toy.

Burkley Chiswick is a 2.5″ tall original Mechtorian creation based on the Rolitoland vinyl toy from Toy2R.
Each figure is hand customised by Doktor A  and comes with a cast metal winding key in a presentation round wooden box.

There are only six available. And they cost $150 each.

Come and add one to your collection at booth 735 at Designer con from the 18th-20th November at Anaheim Convention Centre.
