One of the reasons that Fan Expo was so amazing for me was the people. Specifically the other Toronto based toy makers I met in Artist Alley!

First off is Elaine and Paolo of GreatBeard. They are pretty much in the same boat as me. Their company is just getting started, they make everything themselves, and their attention to quality and detail is incredible. Their website is pretty much fully operational as well which is making me jealous. Elaine has been great with spearheading some group projects and meet ups. Her passion is infectious. I didn’t think I could get even more excited about the future, but meeting them has done just that.

Check out Zombie Lab on Kickstarter. It's in it's last 12 hours. It's a 1:18 scale (4") action figure line of Survivors vs. Zombies. The sculpts are all by Boss Fight Studios and are compatible with their HACKS line of figures. http://kck.st/2w
Check out Zombie Lab on Kickstarter. It's in it's last 12 hours. It's a 1:18 scale (4") action figure line of Survivors vs. Zombies. The sculpts are all by Boss Fight Studios and are compatible with their HACKS line of figures. http://kck.st/2wZicj5 (I will put this link in my profile as well) The project is spearheaded by Andy Wu, Boss Fight's chinese factory liason and distrubutor. He also has experience working for Mattel and Hasbro. The project is in good hands. The campaign is fully funded but has a few more stretch goals to hit. The "All In" option is an incredible value at this point. I can't wait to get my horde and pit them against my Joes. It will also be nice to finally have some civilians in this scale.

My birthday present from @tarakrebsart back in April. The Boglins pin I was coveting from @cavitycolors comes in a tiny reproduction of the original toy box. The (incredibly comfortable) undies and socks from @sockittomeinc came in a delightfully personalized package complete with a sketch and a retro Mr. T card!
Tony is having a little misunderstanding with my new Synthetic Humanoid by @1000toys.

I got this for @tarakrebsart for her birthday a couple years ago. She kept recognizing the Princess of Power characters that I was getting through MOTUC, and we tracked it down to one of these old Colorforms Vinyl Play Sets. I found one still sealed
I got this for @tarakrebsart for her birthday a couple years ago. She kept recognizing the Princess of Power characters that I was getting through MOTUC, and we tracked it down to one of these old Colorforms Vinyl Play Sets. I found one still sealed from 1985. It is in perfect condition. #colorforms #princessofpower #shera #mastersoftheuniverse #pop #motu #vintagetoys
The MOTU library is growing! At this point it seems like Dark Horse has covered almost everything. I think one book based solely on documenting all the toys (in order of release) would finish off the set. #motu #motuc #mastersoftheuniverse
