What’s the deal with Run-A-Mucks?!

Run-A-Mucks is a series of mini figures in the tradition of classics like M.U.S.C.L.E. or Monster in My Pocket. It is a set of 6 unique characters, each designed by a different artist, and sculpted by me, Bryan Fulk. Some of these are a bit more ambitious in design than your typical mini. This mostly means that I have allowed for more complex sculpting and molding than you might usually see in a straight forward 2-part molded mini figure. A couple of the characters are deeper and/or wider with more overall mass than average. Some characters have features smaller and thinner than you might normally expect and some will be molded in multiple parts to accommodate more complicated designs and more extreme angles than are typically possible in 2-part molding.

These extra allowances translate to a more costly molding and manufacturing process, so consider this a deluxe series of mini figures. These figures require about twice the amount of steel molds a traditional set of 6 minis would need and more overall volume of product in the actual casting of the toys. They will fit nicely with your mini figure collection in size and scope, but you will find extra detail or girth to some of these toys. They will be injection molded PVC to assure a consistent and quality product.

After my involvement with October Toys’ OMFG line (another great toy series in the history of minis, also funded on Kickstarter), I was contacted for several commissions and began to collect and sculpt designs. Before long, I was surrounded by new and original mini figures and thought it was time to start a new line for this eclectic bunch, and Run-A-Mucks was born!

Available here on Kickstarter is the classic ‘flesh’ colorway and also a Kickstarter exclusive green colorway–the first in a ROYGBIV rainbow set.

Keep your eyes peeled for the whole ROYGBIV collection. You can make a rainbow of Run-A-Mucks with 7 different colorways available from Last Resort Toys and a handful of other retailers and partners that will have exclusive colorways available. Get a jump start on your rainbow with the exclusive green set only available on Kickstarter and check out The Collector reward tier for even more colors.
