The Huck Gee Project: The Sushi Chef & Octo Samurai Custom Munnys

The Huck Gee Project: The Sushi Chef Custom Munny Vinyl Figure

A private collector recently commissioned Huck Gee to create an entire series of one of a kind custom figures, which combined would make up a larger project entitled, appropriately enough, the Huck Gee Project. While the project has since been put on hold, the collector has decided to share photos of the completed pieces with the world, since these are such incredible custom Munnys. This is definitely some of Huck’s best work, and I am so glad these photos are seeing the light of day!

The Huck Gee Project: The Sushi Chef & Octo Samurai Custom Munny Vinyl Figures

First up is the Sushi Chef, complete with a basket of octopus tentacles ready for market. As you can tell from the second photo, it appears one of these octopus tentacles was actually taken from Huck’s Octo Samurai custom Munny! While the Octo Samurai was originally intended to be a standalone piece, Huck thought he worked too perfectly with the Sushi Chef and created them as companion pieces. I have to say, the Octo Samurai might just be The Blot’s new favorite Huck Gee custom! I absolutely love what he did with that head sculpt…the tentacles are so smooth, it looks like a production piece!
