    Big thanks to Lorne, Don, Joel, and everyone else who put on the show. I got turned on to a lot of new stuff while I was there. Photos don't really give you a sense of scale and paint detail on some of these pieces so I definitely felt fortunate to be seeing them up close.

    Had a ton of fun putting some faces to screen names though I'm terrible at remembering them. Looking forward to seeing everyone again in the future.

    Hahaha...I just got home (well...NYC home). Math in the wee hours of the morning is not the best thing in the world. Lorne and I went through it so it's all good. Lev's version of a split tender is just the odd way of doing it. Lorne got to witness how anal I can be when I'm wide awake. I blame college for that. It was great to meet the guys I wanted to meet and others that I did meet. I wish I coulda stayed a bit longer during the opening but I was with family members.
    Thanks to Jessica for buying my set :D. I'll send the header out later this week.
    Joel, don't forget to send me a figure.
    All in all, it was an awesome show. Anyone that thought of coming but decided not to missed out, not just on the exclusives but on seeing some incredible pieces and meeting up with some cool people. The exclusives were just icing on the cake. Everyone did a great job.

    Did anybody notice those concert posters with kaiju hanging over the entrance door? Not sure if its done by the band or not but...this is the band Peelander Z :lol:
    Saw them in NYC last year and they had a bunch of other kaiju posters leaflets on the walls at this concert, was pretty cool. Although the music probably isn't for everyone, it was fun and pretty outrageous since it's a spectacle to a certain extent.


    good times

    Two great stories to tell from the show: useless toys talking about when he was asked his age (now I know what to say if a cop asks me my age) and Gizzy meeting abe lincoln jr and not realizing it til a few minutes later...hahahaha...that was awesome.
    I asked Lorne about Greasebat's concert posters so if you want one, just hang tight and wait for Lorne to post a response. They are really cool and I probably would have bought a couple of them. Did anyone snap pics of them?

    hehe :lol: that was like a double take hehe I heard the gears grinding to a halt in my brain to backtrack. What can I say, was my first time seeing customs and some of those figures and I was high off of em.
    Was great meeting everyone on preview night, was just such a relaxed and friendly atmosphere I hope to meet everyone again sometime.

    Who was the guy with those kaiju cards?
    Someone needs to take some pics of em to show everyone else, those were awesome! I know at least 3 of you have em so, start takin some pics :twisted:

    guess the pics of peelander didn't come out, let me try again

    Any of this shirt still available anywhere? I remember asking when Joel originally posted the image, but then I forgot about it ... Was it sold at the show?
