Flocked, Cocked and Ready to Rock
Meet the I.W.G.
The I.nsurgents W.ilderness G.ruppo
¡Viva la Revolucion!

"In the not-too-distant future, a strange cosmic retrovirus infects the Earth and spreads through the biosystem.
The virus causes rapid evolutionary change and other mutations in a group of animals from around the globe.
These new breeds organize an armed resistance against the plague that has been destroying their habitat for centuries - the human race!"



STRANGEco is proud to announce a brand new special edition set of I.W.G. mini figures, designed by Patrick York Ma. This Deluxe set features the three founding members of the Insurgent Wilderness Gruppo - Titus the Grizzly, Affonso the White Rhino and Hannibal the Mountain Gorilla - tactile, flocked and fuzzy. Humans beware!

Belgian born artist, sculptor and designer Patrick Ma, has developed and designed a multitude of interesting projects informed from his unusually eclectic background as an army weapons specialist, an M.F.A. student and entrepreneur. Patrick made his mark with his first business, TAD Gear, a genre-defining retailer and manufacturer of "tactical adventure gear". His military-spec rugged and highly functional, yet street-smart and stylish TAD Gear designs are found on fashionable urbanites, military and law enforcements personnel, and active adventurers the world over.

Patrick combined this tactical-chic aesthetic with his long time interest in Sci-Fi inspired design to develop his next business, Rocket World. His first line of products in this new venture were a line of limited edition designer vinyl toys, the "I.W.G." a.k.a. the Insurgents Wilderness Gruppo. The I.W.G. characters were created as irreverent commentary of how our zoological heritage & natural world are being squandered by human action and neglect. A culmination of Patrick's explorations in studio arts and design, continuing interest in tactical design, the I.W.G. toys are a stylish and fun representation of his his awareness of humanity's participation in and impact on ecosystems around the globe.

Part of the proceeds from purchases made of I.W.G. products are donated to a variety of non-profit groups and organizations such as the Gorilla Foundation, the International Rhino Foundation, Zoo Conservation Outreach Group, Friends of the Sea Otter, and the World Wildlife Fund. When time permits, Patrick spends time in the field with wildlife groups, often in remote locations which are difficult to pronounce, doing conservation work. His favorite color is still green...it reminds him of the forest.



The IWG Attack Pack is a flocked 3 piece miniset, including Titus, Affonso, and Hannibal. 3 inches tall. Window Box Packaged. MSRP - $27.99
