Spastik Plastik's that were never made

Postby Reverend » Fri May 18, 2012 7:34 pm

Ok now that I am a proud owner of one of these great proto’s I would like to see other post pictures of the ones they have. Everyone knows, well most, I am all about Spastik Plastik line and after Kroffty asked the question I thought this would be a great thread. My understanding is that these were supposed to be a part of the spastik line but were never made, any info that others can give will help. I know Ron has the Surf Nazi and the Dia de los Muertos couple, Carol has a few. I was also told Wacky Kim has some, so I encourage anyone else to post pictures and/or history of these pieces. By the way if anyone has some and are willing to sell please contact me. Thanks!

That is cool Jacob, very very cool. I have no Spastik wax pieces.

The only wax I have are the "Sugarcult" pieces and they were to wacky wobblers.

Anyone have any idea how long the wax protos were de rigueur?

The green wax protos are Mr. & Mrs. Death .. if I ever get married again they are going on top of the cake ..

the 'Til Death Do Us Part twins were to be part of the Spastik Plastik line I believe. There name comes from the fact I will not part with them until my untimely demise.

the Surf Nazi here as I have always called him .. was to be a Funko Original Wacky Wobbler. Like a cross breed between Johnny Fang, and the Surf Dude. I believe he was deemed to be to over the top for production, he is brought to you from the warped mind of Rob Schwartz.

Wax Protos were done in the very early days of Funko, they were a way to test the molds I believe. Later they started to use wax protos again when Funko started up the Spastik Plastik line.

A lot of the Wax protos can be viewed on the JAFO website .. the Funko Unmade page.

All wax protos are one of a kind, the rarest of the rare proto wax is the Elvis.

The Snowbird Bank was first done in wax because they were unsure of the size they were going to make him, he was the first bigger size bank to be made I believe. Previously only Big Boy, Boo Berry, and the Smurf Banks were only produced. If you notice in the picture the vinyl proto is a bit smaller, probably only the base size is different.

That is a STUNNING picture!! The Snowbird Bank is one of my favorite old-school bank pieces!

Do you have both pieces Carol?

Love those Wax protos. Never had one. But I used to have some wax lips when I was a kid. Think it was supposed to be candy - never quite got that.
