Hot on the heels of the range of Spy Monkey Creation's custom shields comes this AFI exclusive custom shield! I just got this yesterday. These shields are still available for sale at the Spy Monkey Creations store.
The package was way way too big for the one shield. Still it was very well packaged and the shield arrived in one piece.
The shield itself really does look like a piece of toast. The paint work has that fuzzy look which seems sloppy at first glance, but is really just the design of the shield. Like most other SMC shields, it is designed to be held in the hand and does not clip on to the arms. That is the one thing that I don't like about these shields, but that's a minor point.
The shield actually looks rather natural on Wun-Dar, for which it was designed for of course. As a gag accessory, this is a really fun idea, and "completes" the Wun-Dar-bread look of Wun-Dar. At $10 a shield, it's very costly, but for those who love the concept of Wun-Dar, then this shield is a definite must.

I think it's very well done, but is just a little too "jokey" for my tastes. Which is funny considering who I am. :)
ReplyDeleteSpy Monkey Creations is really doing some fantastic work.
It's definitely not for everyone. But it's there for those who want it!
ReplyDeleteAm I the only picturing a very large bread oven in Wunder's house? Seems to me like every time he loses or breaks a shield he just bakes another loaf and cuts himself off a new one lol.
ReplyDeleteI want a butter knife sword to go with this! :)
ReplyDelete@Dark: You can get a black version or a silver version of that from SMC as well!
ReplyDeleteI'm hoping to get one of these for my birthday from my wife. She thinks that Wun-dar is just hilarious.
ReplyDeleteIt cracks me up that people think things like this and Mo-Lar are too silly in a line that is as unabashedly silly as MOTU.
Well, I'm looking forward to a guy with an Elephant head and another one with a Mosquito head. A loaf of bread is tame by comparison.
