Well, We survived New York Comicon 2013! I attended the show only one day this year (Friday) so I had to cram as much Con goodness into one day as possible. I was joined that day by my good buddy Marshal 'Plex' Couture, The man behind Donkey Jaw Projects (www.donkeyjawprojects.com), and fellow toymaker, and Resin Syndicate member, Feast Boy (http://www.feast.storenvy.com). There was soooo much too see that day, The Block section (dedicated to Low Brow Art, and indy Toy Makers) was bigger and better than ever! Industry heavy hitters like Frank Kozik, The Super Sucklord, KaNO, Scott Tolleson, Jon Paul Kaiser, Marty 'God Beast' Hansen, and many others were in attendance, along with kick-ass retailers like: Tenacious Toys, Toy Tokyo, O'Nell Design, Suburban Vinyl, MISHKA NYC, My Plastic Heart, Lullubell, and plenty more slingin' vinyl and resin all day long! It a true was also a pleasure to see smaller indy toy guys and gals rubbing elbows with the heavy hitters.
I had the pleasure of speaking with: TRIPLIKID about His amazing Groper toy, which just so happened to be a finalist in the Designer Toy Awards for Best Resin Figure (good luck guys!) The We Make Pretty gang, with their amazing Munny and Dunny customs, I also chatted it up with Jesse Chagnon, the webmaster of the very awesome blog, Doomkick! If you're a lover of designer toys, and some of the mainstream stuff too, I highly recommend checking them out. I even traded one of My Abyss figures for a couple of his cool, Slime toys! Other key purchases that day would include a sweet figure courtesy of Feast Boy, A My Plastic Heart exclusive Outlander figure, and a handful of other resin, and mini vinyl figures I bought on my adventure. OOPS! I just realized I left out a few cool folks I met at NYCC, Shout outs to Laura Alich (Gum Goblins), Todd Robertson, Jacob Siegelbaum and Father, The gentlemen from Suburban Vinyl, and Selina Briggs (Jelly Empire). Thanks for being co cool, and taking the time to chat with Us :)
So all in all, NYCC 2013' was a great time. Can't wait for 2014!
Thanks for your continued support!
