Later today, Skelton Crew Studios will have a new item available for pre-order for its Hellboy fans, something quite unlike anything in their B.P.R.D. Artifacts Archive: a limited edition mini-bust of itty bitty Hellboy… and we’re excited to give our readers the first look at it.
Skelton Crew Studio serves up itty bitty Hellboy
Hellishly cute is in full swing in this brand new mini-bust collaboration.
Litchfield, ME — Skelton Crew Studio, a comic book replica studio based in the wilds of Maine, has teamed up with Art Baltazar to cook up a new limited edition itty bitty Hellboy mini-bust.
Baltazar and Franco are behind the Eisner-winning “itty bitty Hellboy” comic, based on Mike Mignola’s iconic Hellboy, only cuter.
This officially licensed collectible measures 3.75 inches tall and features itty bitty Hellboy standing, with his trademark smirk, giving a thumbs up, on a big stack of buttery, syrupy pancakes. It’s beautifully sculpted by Arlen Pelletier.
Skelton Crew Studio has been collaborating with Mike Mignola since 2012 when it launched the B.P.R.D. Artifact Archive Collection, but this is its first collaboration with “Aw Yeah! Comics”’ Art Baltazar.
‘It really captures Art’s style and the feel of “itty bitty” — I couldn’t be happier,’ said studio head Israel Skelton. ‘You can tell everyone in every step of the process really cared and really knocked it out of the park.’
Each itty bitty Hellboy pre-ordered thru Jan. 31 will come with an extra sweet bonus: A hand-numbered, limited edition print of Art Baltazar’s concept art for the bust, signed by Baltazar.
