'The Hidden Wickey' Show Wins for One-of-a-Kind Customs!

If you have ever loved Kingdom Hearts but thought it needed a little bit more… creepiness? Then The Hidden Wickey is the custom show for you!

The Hidden Wickey custom show, hosted by Art Toys PH and running from October 12-16, featured various custom dystopian Wickeys from over 25 designers. Wickey is an original character created by the Filipino artist known as Wuji Zun, and is inspired by Sonic the Hedgehog and Mickey Mouse, two of the artist’s childhood favorites.

One of the notable entries was by Creon Chkn Head which had gathered an insane amount of hype! This custom had an awesome stealth-assassin vibe to it, being topped off with the fierce bandages and deadly dagger. Chknhead did a great job at blending the Wickey theme with his own signature chicken appearance. It is super badass! The Chknhead eventually auctioned for 36,000 PHP – That’s around $740!

Another notable entry was by Pkimco, which was the ultimate blend of pastel cuteness and the thing of nightmares! Even more, this custom was affectionately named Wikitty Wakitty Poo. Cinderella, anyone? There is a great combination of critters with this one, as the handsewn ‘coat’ transforms this rat into a cat! The custom features poseable arms and a jointed magnetic tail to really bring something special to the design. Wikitty Wakitty Poo ultimately sold for 8,000 PHP!
