    So Nicky told me about some dude jacked a Punk Drunkers box, and was quickly found, he said whats the big deal? as if it was empty, but i think the table samples were in it. literally the craziest thing I heard all weekend, was as we were saying goodbyes to leave... and while that was the craziest, it wasn't the only crap from the weekend lol... those PD lines are INTENSE

    Ask and you shall receive!
    I got most of what I wanted, I ended up at the back of the line on Saturday as we were told not to run, but people chose not to listen so they could grab that sweet sweet punkdrunkers drop. I got some goodies I didn't think I was going to be able to get like the slimebat and morel snacks 1 offs.
    I got to meet new people, got to see my friends get excited to find new artists and dip their toes in the hobby so for me it was a very productive weekend.

    Pretty sure they were Bwana's newer micros... which are super fun, chunky, little dudes.

    Did not at all expect to come home with this much, but the weekend played out with so much more luck, graciousness and MAD gratitude than I could’ve possibly expected. Obviously I’m very partial to Headlock, but two of the biggest standouts for me are Paul Kaiju’s Kappa and Blitzkrieg’s Goyjin. Bwana and Draculazer’s minis are easily the funnest!!!

    My plan wasn’t to come home with all the toys. I got really excited for the first time in a long time and just ran with that.
    One of my favorite moment was to welcome my sister-in-law on Saturday and walk around the con with her, her partner and my wife. It’s cool to see this world through their eyes, what catch their attention and most importantly that they are having a good time discovering this world and this community.

    Ok … here is the haul pic:

    Hey y’all,

    This year was our first time ever making it out to Dcon and it definitely won’t be the last!!
    Great to meet folks and hope to meet even more people next time.

    So many highlights, including: meeting PK, exhibiting a toy in DKE’s Gold Timey Art Show, and of course, sacks of toys :D

    Trying to post my haul pic, but I’m not an experienced poster, so hopefully this works.

    Great haul!
    There's a couple toys I want you to identify for me. What is the caterpillar with a human face? and that cat that says NYA NYA on the card?

    These are the only photos we had to go off of from security. You know the deal, shitty surveillance photo, motion blur, computer enhance quality.

    This was Sunday around 11a, so he just got in and just put all of the box contents in his backpack.

    The good news is, he was roaming the show floor with a Press badge. So if it was legitimately his, or his buddy's, that company is banned from all CA conventions apparently.

    @shincartoon Zach and Ezra’s booth was great. They had a lot of really cool figures, and lots of their MaBa style toys! The reaper is a major standout though, and my favorite. Gotta love the middle finger! :lol: I also found out that Ezra is part of Middle of Beyond, who are known for some very killer horror/pop culture themed flannels, jackets and shirts!

    I didn't actually attend DCON, but I e-stalked the Toy Art Gallery booth for this Skullion by Martin Ontiveros. I was super stoked no one bought it at the show, I was able to pick it up online.

    Last year was a blast with Creature Bazaar, Bwana, atomica Exotica etc. anchoring sofubi alley. No matter how big and corny the rest of the event gets, it seems to still be a huge gathering for sofubi, so I'll continue going.
