Devious Toy Dioramas (UPDATE)

— March 29, 2011 — Pop Culture
Though this is not the first installment of 'Toy Stories' by Aled Lewis, this hilarious new collection has now been put up for sale on inPrint, meaning that fans can get their hands on their own personal copy of their favorite pieces.

Featuring toys posed in humorous situations with ironic captions and speech bubbles, 'Toy Stories' by Aled Lewis finds an innocuously amusing way to create charming, but simultaneously subversive comedy. My personal favorite is the Mario reinterpretation, which puts a turtle in between a plumber and the princess, although the hungry shark clumsily trying to trick its prey is definitely a close second.
