Re: Designer Con.. Matt Groening? Really. Awesome! Sorry I didnt get to say hello to you or Gomora. Next time. Here's some pix (toy pics right at the end...snork): PK Mania: Something HMS this way comes; Happy Halloween, only one week late ...lol Larry's gurl, Scott Skellington and Larry - while Mr Kontact lurks right: Finally, Buff gets all points on point: Purists will object - but I quite liked this take on a punk toy: Joe working it, while Josh takes the more Josh approach: The Trickster - proto sculpt by our very own UpperGIJoe: Lulu Krew bring the goods! Two takes on Lawrences awesome Invisible Man jacket: Suck-athon: Vs Toungue-athon: No dad - no more DCon! Actions speak louder than words for Evan and H. MonstreHeroes all; Sean, PK and Aaron: David, Maddie n Nate - PK'd and happy: Lobster Taco Gang (not Scott, he has vegan special powers to consider): And for those of you who want to see vinyl - here's some toys:
Absolutely awesome DCon this year! Always fun to hang out with the LASK folks, I think it's probably the best thing about DCon because you don't have to wait in a freezing line for a chance at it!
awesome pictures carl!... looks like you guys all had a blast this year. Now all i want to do is make sure i get tickets for next year and for some odd reason i really want a lobster taco.
Great hanging out with everyone!!!!! Always fun when I see you guys! Was a lil worried when Kontact got all quiet at lunch after he had a lobEster burrito. I guess we shouldn't eat lobster when its at a MALL!!!!! fart hammer stories were classic too!
Good times with SDSK and LASK yesterday. Nice meeting Butch and David as well. I was about to comment on Scott's halloween attire, but Carl and Lawrence beat me to the punch and got their junks touched, so I decided to hold off. PK's booth was the star of the show. I didn't get a Joe, but was able to get the last Stinger Mask and a mini Thrashout Boss, as well as some classic Brains from HMS. I was definitely feeling the LobEster tacos when I got home.
Happy Halloweenz!!! Also just noticed that Lulu had both bunny styles available in the same colorway. Different body and nose vs. mouth painted. Check Carl's pic above and this 1 from lulu blog: This was my favorite toy I picked up. Love it from every angle!
^ Actually the mini Boss is now vinyl. PK had it in resin before but now has it cast in vinyl. Kinda confusing since the other variation(TO colorway) was hanging with all his mini resins.
Good times. It was great talking to and seeing everyone. One of the best things about Dcon, you're done by 12 instead of waiting the whole day for releases. Short and sweet and a good way to end the con season. Anyway here's my haul.... If I'm muling for you, you can see your stuff in this pic.... and yes, those are L.A. hands. Represent.
Bebop Ultra Grunt. I met some new boardies and had a blast even though Paul blew out our booth for the first two hours.
Cool, thanks for that info. Forgive my ignorance, but is Keith a fellow boardie? This is the first I have seen of his work that I can remember. But looking at his other stuff, I am very impressed. I would love to build a army of these Ultra grunts to battle it out with my kaiju vinyl.
Finally home! Thanks to everyone that stopped by and chatted. Great seeing the familiar faces along w/ meeting some new ones. Thanks to those that helped set up Friday night.
Loved seeing all the photos from this year's DCon! Thanks for sharing. Looks like everyone got some great stuff too. Hope to make it out west for one one of these days.
my pickups... sorry for the 2 westerns in there... they were $5 from DKE broken sale, and Graffiti inspired pieces, figured for $10 gotta grab em. *sdcc sally is in there just because i got a biter mask that suits him very well*
Were the Thrashout Bosses a special re-release or are people including them in photos to go with other Thrashout PK toys?
