I tombled over a photo of this customized 10" TT a few days ago... zuuuusssh! I had to write and bother the guy FAKIR immediately to grab all available photos of the final figure and some making-of flix to share with the TT fans! Just such a strong idea and perfect realisation! Just WOW! POW WOW! Please check all the other great works from FAKIR on his official website & Instagram. I have been a big fan of his work myself for a long time. Really happy and proud this one is done on a Trooper! Cheers mate!

"Recently i had been invited this week to speak at a school in art classes. Not at the Bauhaus University but in a very smart elementary school. Showing the kids some of my graffiti works, speaking about vinyl toys and answering them all their questions. Also doing some live drawing for them on a canvas for their class room. The kids were super excited about having me there. I guess back in the days when i was their age i would have been blasted too to see some modern arts instead of some old farts.
I then also asked them to join in to draw on a paper with our Teddy Trooper shape lines and bring in their phantasy and skills.
Here are all the funky results (in no particular order).
Thanx to all the cool kids of "Klass 4A" and their lovely teacher Miss H. for having me as a guest!"

This custom trooper features a wireless USB Sound Player. Well done by GladGuile.

AlexBreak sent in this great little Turtle Trooper. I like turtles!

"Kingdom Of Troops" - a series of Teddy Troopers customized by Patmoslipsi. Thanx to Mark for sending in these photos!

I made another custom 10" Teddy Trooper for our show at the TOYKIO gallery. Like mostly everybody else my age grew up with the Star Wars movies and maybe more important: the Star Wars Kenner toys. I had been thinking for a long while which of the classic SW characters i could pick. Some of them are obviously fitting on the teddy and helmet.... Darth Vader, Stormtroopers, Boba Fett, Biker Scout, Deth Star Gunner.... etc. Most of them have been remixed a hundred times. Somehow at the end i came up with the lamest and uncoolest character of the whole universe: Admiral Ackbar. And the Kenner's Ackbar toy figure even came with the most useless weapon of all time. A stick. "Hey! Look at my new stormtrooper figures i just got! Those big blaster they have! They can shoot down everything. What have you got?" - "Admiral Ackbar! He can destroy the Death Star! With this... äh,... stick... thing." (To not offend Ackbar's dignity any further i haven't given him a stick... thing.)
Available at the TOYKIO Shop&Gallery.

My friend Muffinman - creator of the "From Bronko With Love" / "The Magnificent Ambrose And His Amazing Flying Headgear From Hell" and "Tag Team Partners" Teddy Troopers - just sent me these shots of his latest custom 3" Trooper. It is called "GOTH - Guardian Of The Hog". This time with a new bushy hair style... That little punk just made my day!

This is incredible sick! An amazing customized Teddy Trooper called "Rabbito" by Mall aka May Ann Licudine from the Philippines. This is the best Eastern gift this year for me! You have to check out more of her brilliant works on her blog...

Finally this little hot item made it over to our warehouse right in time for the cold and snowy christmas days.. In colaboration with MOLOTOW spray cans we turned the 10" custom Trooper into a limited run of the 3" Troops. Comes in a special box. A tribute to the legendary spray can from the early 90's.

Just arrived in (winter)time for christmas.... Grab them at Rockawaybear.com

The TURMKUNST project in Berlin has just finished and now the biggest Teddy Trooper mask on the tower is watching all over the Berlin skyline. Size? 3"? 10"? No, it is 160ft (50 meters) high. Massive! The artists HONET, SOZYONE, Craig KR Costello aka KRINK and FLYING FÖRTRESS spent more than 6 weeks to turn the infamous "Bierpinsel" tower into this huge artwork.  More photos on Flying Förtress' blog.

Timself who hooked me up on the "Most Wanted Messageboard Artist Series 1" (which was a customized Dunny fan series) dropped me this little gift in return. Thanx a lot for those friendly dentures! :-)

I have just a little surf through the internet and picked up some flix of customized Teddy Troopers from all over the world...

We got in two new fellas from ActionOne and Haciendo Estragos. Salute!

Another great fellow dropped in from Muffinman: It's "The Magnificent Ambrose And his Amazing Flying Headgear From Hell"! Lickin'!

This one is really super cool! And it is also based on the small 3" Teddy Trooper what makes it even more amzing. "Tag Team Partners" by Muffinman from Hamburg/DE.

Ian Ziobrowski sent in new customized Teddy Troopers: the "Nuggy Trooper" and the "Lil Nuggy Trooper". Great "Holzfäller" couple! Maybe you already know his "Smokey The Bear" custom made for the Wreck The Halls contest? Here it is again...

We just got in these 2 new amazing customs. The "Monster Bilis" by Chauskoskis and a Chickadee Trooper build in "Meißener Porcelain" by Schni!ike Schni!ike.

This idea had been sticking to my head for a very long time. For 15 years i have this left over (almost) full spray can standing in front of me on my desk. It has been the BEST EVER red colour spray paint. Ever! "Hitzerot" aka "The Red Gold". For those who know... Heavy covering power - heavy toxic impact. So this customized 10" Teddy Trooper is my tribute to it and a whole era of writing on steel back in the days.

My friend Nikoman from Rennes/FR gave me this armed "WAR-T01" Trooper as a gift to join my private collection army. Merci!

A new tasty customized Teddy Trooper by WuzOne

We got sent in some great flix of another amazing customized 10" Teddy Trooper: the "Baxter the Lonley Dead Bear" by Aaron Boy. Thanx for support!
