“If you are a fan of Masters of the Universe, bootleg toys or just plain weird stuff then the “Bootlegs of the Universe” Facebook page is just for YOU!”
In lieu of a HUGE exclusive project reveal coming this Friday, we thought we’d take the chance to introduce you guys to the awesome new community driven Facebook page “BOTU”… the Bootlegs of the Universe! Created by the twisted minds of collectors John Santagada (formerly of DC Direct and Mezco) and Hex Evo (KO-Messiah), the BOTU page serves as a comprehensive, all-encompassing guide to the putrid plastic world of vintage MOTU bootleg action figures as well as the recent surge of neo-vintage 3rd party MOTU projects. Featuring works from the likes of Giant Japanese Monster, Bad!, 5.5 Customs, Galaxxor and Bigmantoys alongside some of the most ugly, toxic, but most importantly interesting knock-offs from as far reaching as Mexico, Yugoslavia and Spain… Stay tuned for our exclusive reveal of BOTU’s first project on Friday- [hint] It’s set to feature 16 of the neo/bootleg scene’s finest!
