@calarok It's still in production and won't be released for a long while. Hopfully we will get it out by 2012.

P.S. You're cute :p Thanks for all that you do for us stop motion enthusiasts and creating such a great resource of information like StopMotionMagazine :) As soon as I get my paycheck at the end of the month, I'll be ordering printed copies of the magazine's issues because I like having something tangible to read, rather than staring at the monitor all the time and I want to support the site.

Hey that's pretty cool! If u don't mind, I have a few questions, please. So is this an alt. method 2 injecting foam/latex into a mold & creating a cast that way? Does the shininess of the plastic pose a problem 4 conveying more realistic textures on skin when ur shooting frames? Can this b corrected by spraying/applying another material over it, like latex? When moving the plastic head 4 animating, do u risk causing unwanted indentations? & lastly, where can I see Zombie Dad in action? Thanx!

hey if one of the heads were to fall would it break or is the plastic strong enough o an what are the two liquids used to make the plastic

[stopmotionmagazine]

The kit is called EasyFlo 60. You can buy it online. I've dropped a number of heads and have had no damage to them. They will however scratch. It's plastic after all.
