NEW YORK COMIC CON part 1!!!
I had a blast at this years con even though I didn't have a table in Artist Alley (con powers that be had lost our application -WTF?! or should I say - yeah riiiiiight!!!) with Robert Garrett doing our usual Xmoor studios shindig. But I got to catchup with some biz associates and good peeps like my pals Lesean Thomas (we couldn't walk like 5 feet without him getting interviewed or stopped by fans and friends - way to go man, way to go), Erick Scarecrow (who's Liberty toy SOLD THE F*$K OUT!!! at the show - Congrats man!) and Manny Galan! (Dookie Poo rules!!!) Got me some awesome swagg and Kaching/Mindstyle was gracious enough to host the Galtow Warrior bust in their glass case display (big ups to MD for the prime real estate hook up!!! ) Shucks - I even dropped the gold exclusive ESC Toy version up in there - which MD is now proud owner of...rumor has it next years show will be even bigger and in a warmer month?! I hope to hell so - it was dagnabit cold as a witches you-know-what on Saturday morning!!! I heard the line to get in went all the way up to the Bronx! No way!

Big ass crowd everywhere all 3 days!!!

Can't keep Galtow out the show!!! Best set up was the Kaching/Mindstyle booth...bad ass black tent!

Big dog Lesean holding down the Midtown booth signing - all the sketchbooks sold out! I didn't even get one - WTF?!

Liberty vinyl toy - Sold Out!!! I don't want to say I told you but hey - I told you so!!!

Big dog Manny G! Killin em with the funniest character out right now - Dookie Poo! Want to laugh? Go to the Dookie Poo blog and that's that!
Part 2 next!!!

TOY FAIR 2007!!!
The Plasticandplush site (http://www.plasticandplush.com/plasticandplush/) had some nice images of round two of the FLCL Canti robot done up in some new crazy designs for 2007 for Ka-Ching Brands. The Toytoons site (http://photos.toytoons.com/showgallery.php?cat=997) had some great coverage of the Toy Tokyo booth with a nice shot of Kano's MoneyGrip toy.
