Artists’ Words of 2011 – Part 1

Making of Predator by master Joseph Tsang

To wrap up the year of 2011, for Joseph, the most satisfied project is Classic Predator, which actually he thinks the design is very closed to the Predator from the first movie in 1987 and he is very much inspired by this movie which he started to fall in love into creatures.

Recently, he is working on the 1/4th scale of Classic Predator from the first movie, which allows more room to showcase more obvious details, will be definitely a surprise for fans and he believes that most Predator fans will like it too!

Besides, he is also working on the 1/6th scale of Predator from the Predator 2 movie, which will also be an amazing piece of works! Stay tuned for more Joseph’s marvelous works in 2012!

Artists’ Words of 2011 – Part 2

Hello everyone! I am Kojun!

2011 is almost done.
2012 is coming. Happy New Year, Hot Toys fans!
Please keep good health and take care!

I have joined Hot Toys for almost 3 years.
At the end of this year, I always think of myself and how my work was in this year.
I am feeling a bit sad, because for me my work is not very good this year.
The number 1 memory of my work is Captain Jack Sparrow.
I want to show you guys this photo –
Please take a look.



We didn’t show you guys this photo before. All head sculpts look like the same but actually each of them is of a bit different style.
This is really a hard job, because I have sculpted many different heads for licensor’s approval, and Howard and JC want to have the hair separated one by one.

For this figure, it has taken a long time and I have received a lot of comments from JC.
I have thought of million times about dropping this job, but I cannot, because I have talked about it to some media in the interviews.
Actually I thought if my talent is not enough…

Whether the final head is good or not, working hard or not doesn’t matter anymore,
because I am really happy that I have a chance to make this figure and my favorite character can be made into a figure!
For me, I just can’t stop this job (figure sculpting).



And I want to tell you guys this good news – in 2012, I want to try Wolverine again!
He is really also my favorite character. I think the quality before is not good enough and it is a good timing to work on this again as Hot Toys has already confirmed with licensor on this. I am really excited and will do this with my full power!

Again, thank you very much for your support, all Hot Toys fans!
There is a lot of good talking between us this year and I am very happy about that!

Happy new year again from Kojun in Korea

A quite funny thing is that - when I work, my face is always smiling like Joker.

Please imagine. It’s really very funny, right? haha

...was aber noch nicht die ganzen Koreaner die dort arbeiten erklärt ;-)
