Last weekend was Mother's Day weekend, and while I went home to celebrate with my family, there happened to be a little show going on over at Lift Detroit called Multiple Personalities II. A follow-up to last year's successful Multiple Personalities show, the event opened Saturday night at Lift's store in Royal Oak, Michigan, featuring all kinds of custom toys from a number of well-known artists and a few local first-timers. Of course, being in town, I decided to stop by and check things out. After all, their MADL Citizens Show as great last October.

So how was it? Hit the jump to hear more about this great show!

Lift Detroit itself is located in downtown Royal Oak's commercial district, right next to the city's train tracks. There aren't any big signs or banners telling you that you're at Lift, but the piles and piles of vinyl toys in the window do that all the same. Inside, there was a DJ spinning music and plenty of snacks and drinks to be had. Oh, and there were apparently some custom vinyl creations and other pieces of art from some 50 different artists.

Many of the vinyl pieces were Munnies, transformed in ways you had never thought possible. Artists like Cris Rose, 64Colors and Plaseebo were among the many artists who created Munnies for the show, but my favorite was Josh Pierce's Daisy Pusher Munny with its three custom masks, pictured above. There were also plenty of MADLs in attendance at Multiple Personalities II, including a very hairy one done by SpankyStokes. Had these been the only type of pieces there, it would have already been a success, but there was far, far more to see.

But not all of the creations there were Munnies and MADLs. DrilOne, for example, recreated the Wagon Queen Family Truckster from National Lampoon's Vacation in painstakingly awesome detail. D-Lux showed off two of his custom kaiju pieces, and several custom Labbits were also in attendance. The Sharky Labbit happens to be my favorite among those. They were a perfect reflection of the open gallery that Multiple Personalities II was intended to be and added an extra touch of flavor to the show.

Overall, this is a very diverse and very well-organized show, absoluitely worth seeing if you can. Check out the gallery below to see all of the vinyl creations on display, or if you’re in the Detroit area, head on over to Lift Detroit in downtown Royal Oak (228 W. 4th St.) and get a first-hand look at them yourself. The show runs through June 4, so you still have quite a bit of time to visit. It's definitely worth the trip.
