    Lottery this week for first painted Slugbeard.

    Also beware of fake listings for unpainted blue. Sam Dewitt is at it again.

    You know what would take the sting away from not winning the sugar cookie mockbat? Owning this first painted slugbeard. So many cool details came out in the paint that I hadn't noticed before.

    I lost out as well, but since this is produced by tag I'm sure they will be easier to come by.


    But that's me hoping. Grats to those that scored.

    Thank you. It was one that i honestly couldn't see me winning. Who knows how many people entered but with Paul's huge popularity nowadays and that incredible paint app on that utter beast of a toy must have been into the hundreds so I am REALLY happy about it. I actually sent a pic of it and the new Tara nag to a friend of mine who doesn't collect toys saying i would stab a tramp to own either and now i got one and no tramp was harmed during obtaining it. Just need to bag that nag now but i certainly won't hold my breath about winning that.

    Yep. LAME.

    Seen a few went to some good owners. It happens.

    Don't fret.

    Working on NICE paint samples for production.

    Should be swimming in them mid year.

    Its in! I will talk it up.

    Also sorry to people that didn't win the Slugbeard raffle. Seeing them on eBay really
    angers me. I have sent messages to those sellers with a simple "asshole flipper" since
    I can't do much more than that. The most upsetting part is that these should have
    gone to the awesome members here that would appreciate the hell out of the creepy
    bastard. If I could set raffles up just for SB members, I sure would.

    Skullbrain pre-order to members with over 100 posts. Although this would be amazing, I hope Slug doesn't become as available as Pollen is.....I feel it would kill the hype.

    Fixed it for you. Hype is a bad thing in toy collecting. It makes toys harder to get and more expensive. I collect these toys because I like them, not because others do.

    Well played and well said James (with 1 small edit) ;)
    I'm in 100% agreement with that statement.
    Hype keeps the opportunistic flipsh!ts hanging around this hobby.
    It would be awesome to see us swimming in Slugs by mid year... and it won't make me love this amazing toy any less.
