    Hi Gang. I haven't checked in here for a while. Thanks for keeping this thread thriving. I think I need a new avatar, this one...

    Did anyone else see this tuxedo Garak poo up online? Pretty damn sweet, I'm jealous of whoever snagged it. I don't remember ever seeing this guy before, anyone know who painted it? Doesn't look like Bwana to me.

    I could not find photo evidence, but I picked up a one off hooligan in a suit in 2016,and I think this Garak might have have been in the same batch. The little squiggles on the shoes seem pretty Bwana to me.

    I agree about the squiggles, the eyes are what throws me off and makes me think it might be someone else. I also didn't see a B.S. on this guy so that would rule out a one-off. Either way, it's a great figure.
    Let's see that Hooligan @blakewest!

    Ugh. Well, I just moved and he's still packed, but I also pulled a boner a while back and fucked up some of the paint. So I'd be a little embarrassed to share. I really need some time to paint match and do a little touch up.

    I saw it, and it wasn't me. The clean eyes say Koji, but no way he would do those squiggles. Mystery.
    Rampage released some different suits into the wild in Japan, but I don't think he did this either.

    Hope all of you on this thread got what you wanted.

    I've missed a couple of Fridays due to work meetings. Feeling OK about it tho. There will always be more! Bwana's always got something new cooking :)

    I miss drops so consistently :lol: I'm usually working or taking a break and tuning out right at drop time. Standout from this drop for me was the one-off Krackle with Morel pilot; the mix of sprays and clear glitter vinyl on that Morel were something to behold.

    I haven’t scored in months. Honestly it has to be the worst time to do releases. Some of is don’t work from home/behind a computer all day. It’s getting to the point that I’m just going to stop trying all together.

    10am pacific is lunchtime in NYC Ed:) I don't really like the lotto system. It feels so rigged, and there isn't a set time that people can count on. But maybe I'll try it sometime again. I think what we need is a new (planned) Skulls Club release, and maybe a public pre-order or two:) Maybe for new Globby:)

    Based on how quickly everything sold out it would seem 10 am PST is was a good time for a lot of people. I’d be disappointed if that time wasn’t doable for me but clearly it works well enough.
    SARS and preorders sound fantastic.

    @Fig Belly 10am pst/1pm est is not lunchtime in NYC when your day starts at 7am est, Brandon. Look it’s your stuff to sell, so do it however you want.

    @Brooklyn_Vinyl when there are 10-30? pieces for most releases, it doesn’t take that long for something to sell out. So yeah, it seems to work real well.

    Look I’m one guy, I don’t expect the system to change for me. I was just voicing my frustration. There is no way/time that would make everyone happy.

    I almost pulled the trigger on one of those pretty Randall one-offs, but was feeling broke/decided to save my duckets for a later drop.
    Congrats to those that scored!

    I’m not the one who brought up the lunch time thing. I was just simply venting some frustration, as I had mentioned in my post, but I guess reading isn’t fundamental. Just like he is allowed to sell his items anyway he wants, again no one way will satisfy everyone, I too am allowed to spend my money or my effort in obtaining said items anyway that I so choose also.

    Look I don’t hold anything against @Fig Belly or any maker for that matter, for selling their product the way it makes sense for them, we all go through this frustration when constantly taking looses when trying to get something we really enjoy having/looking at, and @Fig Belly just happens to make stuff that I do.

    I apparently cut my comment between the time you started writing that and posted, bc there's not enough time in the day to be grumpy about this stuff, I just thought your tone (specifically calling him "Brandon" while chiding him abt your personal schedule) was a little off—but I have definitely gotten grumpy about these things too, so I deleted.

    Luckily Bwana/Brandon is a thoughtful fellow and was already trying to come up with ideas to make things work based on your initial feedback. Let's all just continue to spread the good vibes that we no doubt value as much as we love the Gravy Toys that engender said vibes.✌

    I'm good with Ed, he's been at this a long time. It's always this push and pull between wanting and hoping stuff sells out, and doesn't just sit there (which is the other end of a crappy deal dealt), and hoping that everyone can get something they covet. Either way, we are long overdue for a skulls club exclusive, and I think I gots a good one for you guys. So check yer inboxes maybe wednesday or thursday. Depending on how LONG overdue dental appointments go tomorrow:)

    This was one from the mix-n-match batch I did for the 1st five points

    In other news, Bwana is awesome, and it’s good that he’s able to sell out of his stuff when he releases it. I always check too late, and always miss my wants, but I make up for it by buying paintings when he’s got them :)

    In case anyone forgot, there are still Rampage x Bwana micros in the Gravy store. Figured it's been an hour, go get you some.
