Mr. Pumfrey and his Astounding Mechanised Perambulator.
A new toy designed by Doktor A and crafted by Munky King.

A Behemoth of robotic motion. The perambulator seems to stride on organic looking mechanical tentacles with Mr. Pumfrey perched in his lever, dial and switch crammed control seat. The mechanism’s internal working visible through it’s transparent red eyes.

The “AP”s of this toy are now available direct from Doktor A from his online store.

In a total edition of 100 for this black, gold and red colourway, this is the signed and numbered edition of 15 “APs” ( Artist Proofs or Artist’s Percentage).

Each piece is signed and numbered on the underside of one tentacle in gold acrylic paint. Each Ap also comes with a signed and numbered mini art print of the original ink drawing that inspired the toy (same edition number as the AP). 4.5″ X 5.5″ on heavy archival rag stock. And a full colour promotional postcard.

8″ tall, rotocast static vinyl display figure with removable Pumfrey pilot. Comes in a presentation box with inner clam shell packaging.

Where there’s muck there’s Brass.. Or so the saying goes. It proved true for Erasmus. Mistaken for dead and ejected to a scrap heap, he slowly recovered and began to rebuild his broken body from that lay around him. Exchanging his steam drive for a clockwork one allowed him to go without fuel and cut another tie to his dependence on society. He dropped out for a while, scavenging the heaps, organising and cataloguing. Then he returned with a new and successful venture. Forging an innovative line in reclaimation yards which became a new trend among the middle classes.

Part of the “Oddfellows” Show at Stranger Factory.

The crowning glory of the current “Oddfellows” show at Stranger Factory is the collaborative sculpture between myself and the astonishingly talented Chet Zar. A tower of robot and monster goodness. Who controls who in this mash up of metal, bone and flesh. The piece took many months to complete with parts going back and forth across continents. The final result is a probably never to be repeated, surreal bio-mechanical wonder. The whole thing stands some 21″ tall in case you were wondering just how big it was.

It was a real pleasure and privilege to be able to work with Chet on this project. The results are even better than I could have hoped for.
