The new 52 Joker

Cesar Diaz was born in Palmdale, CA and was interested in art since childhood. He studied art at College of the Canyons. He works primarily on blank vinyl molds which he then uses to create custom figures. Cesar works on various mediums and uses diverse tools, such as canvas art, digital drawing, home made resin figures and airbrushing. He currently resides in Reseda, CA with his wife and pug Bojangles. Pop! Vinyl by Funko is one of the most recognizable and successful collectible toy lines in the world. Launched in 2010, these figures feature a distinctive design with oversized heads, small bodies, and minimal facial features, often with black, round eyes. The line covers a vast range of characters from movies, TV shows, video games, anime, sports, and pop culture. Despite their mass-market nature, Funko Pops have influenced the designer toy scene by popularizing vinyl collectibles, introducing mainstream audiences to the joy of collecting, and occasionally collaborating with artists for unique, stylized designs.
