Well, My inbox is full of emails asking about how my venture to Japan was last week. I guess one word can describe it AWESOME !!!!!!. I'm going to do my best to tell you all about it. I'm sure it will be a rambled on mess. But here it goes. I almost forgot.....Everything Sold Out !!!!!!!
Here is the table shot of setting up. I wasn't in the building 30 seconds and other toy makers and buyers were giving me gifts and buying my custom figures that I brought. There were about 6 more Shuttlegons and about 3 geboras that I couldn't get a pic of.
This is Andy from Kaiju Korner. Great guy !!!!
Fans of all kinds were taking pictures of my stuff throughout the day.
This is me with the infamous dude behind the Kadmium Tank blog. He was surprised when I told him I read his blog every post :)
I also did a pinstriping Demonstration during the show. It was really cool to see that many of the fans know of me from the pinstriping. In the background you can see some of the guys from Pop Soda.
This gentleman here watched the entire demonstration from start to finish. he was the lucky one who got to take home the pinstriped panel.
What you see here is Ito-san (Itokin Park) holding the Dead Presidents Lucha Bear production colorway !!!!! More on that Later
Got to meet Blobpus. He and his wife (Vinyl Junkies) are very cool people !!!!!
Yajima-san (Dream Rocket). He is posing with his pinstriping brushes..... What ???? He Rules....Period.....
This is Yamashita he owns a company called Nakayoshi he is a custom painter and sculptor from Japan. I saw a custom Red Jack the he did which was really cool. I immediately commissioned him to paint me a Baragon for my collection.
This is another custom painter from Japan as well. His name is schef. Here he is holding one of my Lucha Bears. He showed me a really cool clear lucha bear that he is working on.
The One the Only Mr. Matt Doughty of Onell Design. He is the reason for all of this madness !!! This guy could sell honey to bees :) . I was getting really dizzy at the time this picture was taken . It was at the end of the show.
A quick group dinner shot here. If you don't know this crew well...... I guess you don't need to know. Hard Core things were discussed that's all I can say.
Here is a shot of my current Max Toy customs at One Up in Nakano Broadway. It was awesome talking with Ken.
What some of you have asked about. Well here is some of it. Don't look to close :)
A couple of vintage scores !!!!
I was able to get the absolute killer Dream Rocket pieces !!!!
