Hey y'all-

I'm super psyched about this last batch of El Diablo toys!
These will go on sale tomorrow (Friday) @ 12pm EST in the
ARGONAUT RESINS store: http://argonautresins.bigcartel.com/

This is the last of this figure for now- we've broken the mold---->
so grab 'em now or hold your peas ('n carrots - or candy corns...well you get the point)

And here they are!

Yes! He's got G.I.D. eyes and mouth!

Yes he's a full on glow in the dark figure!

Something Diablo this way comes...

Argonaut Resins and mice elf have cooked up one last spooktastic
batch of El Diablo figures for this All Hallows Eve!
There will be 6 new pieces and after this we are breaking the mold...

Here's a little teaser for y'all. For more info go to:

"Shadow El Diablo" - This little guy is like the traditional "Red Pants" version
on his way up from the depths- while he is still in the shadow world...

"Ghostly El Diablo" - Is it an apparition or just El Diablo playing with your mind?
Whoooooo knooooows?!

Spinning right round...
