Bulletproof Beetles OG version By Lolonine

It has been over a year in the making but boy its worth the wait. Back in May 2016 ??? Lolonine of the White Pin collective came out with 4 resin prototypes of his “Bulletproof Beetles” which caught our attention as it was pretty unique. Like we said before,  his work is something different and we don’t see anything like it within the scene right now. His creations interpreted from life experiences.

His work is something different and we don’t see anything like it within the scene right now. His creations interpreted from life experiences. Who would have thought a Rhino Beetle would work as an art toy!

“Nothing can crack the shells of ‘Bulletproof Beetles.’ Their story is about making themselves more impenetrable in order to protect themselves and their clan from their enemies.

Anyone, who loved insects as a child, must have memories about searching for a beetle in a forest. I hope that ‘Bulletproof Beetles’ bring back childhood memories that have been dug deep in the minds of people surviving through the hustle and bustle of today’s society.”

 

Every single version looks dope! and look at the texture of the beetle’ helmet on the black version on the right. These are  handmade, which makes them even better! We would love to see them up close. Judging from these photos they look as good a s production. For now only the OG colour way is available but it doesn’t hurt to check out the other variants.

Made from resin and standing at 330mm Lolonine chosen colourways have been spot on. Look how smooth the finish is too.

These next two figure….. well wow! we love the combo of having insects combined into an action figure. Let’s hope the articulation is as good as they look.
