SDCC 2006 Report / 2nd part

The atmosphere is good, the toys it's better. Let’s not forget that we came expressly for that and not to eat Mexican every day. Anyway, that's what we've done, but the Burrito/TOY is not disgusting all things considered. Here we could perhaps even invent Burritoy for next year since I don't really like hot dogs or kebabs culinaryly speaking. No ? Good... Where to start ? Maybe just what we saw when we enter. After passing by Mezco Toyz And its famous excluded and a few science-infection/resin stands of monster/hello Gothy, we are facing a few large stands expected, all aligned and significantly of the same size: Super 7 - Strangeco - Kidrobot. No chance since today these three companies are a bit like what is going on in the USA in the world of the world Designer TOY. Super 7, who publishes Super 7 Magazine and who also has a shop in San Francisco specializing in Japanese imports from Kaiju and the manufacture of Neo Kaiju, invested the show with a slew of news and a ton of Japanese monsters. Honestly their display had nothing to envy to many Japanese toyshops. Over the entire length of the stand was the excluded S7 whose News Secret base (Frankenghost Glow and drink glass in it, Spirit Ghostfighter in two versions sold in blind), but also Skull King disturbing action is in the 3 skulls, the giant Meltdown Godzilla all orange, a new imposing Kittyfire and all cute Steven the Bat of Bwana Spoons. In addition to these disturbing little critters they had brought a little stocks of their previous outings (the clever they had kept under the elbow) especially a lot of SB. The event of the Super7 stand (and maybe simply the event of the SDCC, because I do not think that the screening of snakes we flatten, new incredibly stupid film with snakes on a plane, has caused the same excitement) was the coming of Pushead For 125 minutes of dedication and special release on Thursday. What go crazy about the designer of the designs of the Zorlac boards and the metallica pockets, converted to Kaiju TOY based on skull. It was with great generosity that Pus penciled the dozens of exclusives that he brought back, among which 11 Hand Painted Companion X Kaws, THE 125 Skullpirate exclusive, the 25 "Jar of Pus" Circus Punks, and Skullwings Hand Painted also ... Many bank accounts exploded during these two hours and 5 minutes. The famous Opening Night, a privileged moment or those who have a 4-day pass can come before the world Chopper the excluded, did not seem to be derogated from the rule since it is the fans rushed on what They had cherished for weeks. At Strangeco it was very quickly felt since at the end of the first day there was already no more Mozarella (new character of Tokidoki), nor Turtle Camper Silver by Jeremy Fish, and the Goon de Touma In two versions has found its audience quite quickly too. Here is the list of other figurines available at Strangeco (a large majority of designers were present at one time or another for a signing session): Amos Novelies - James Jarvis & Will Sweeney - Pink King Ken - Vortigern's Machine Special Edition Book - 50 pieces, Hard Cover Black and illustrations by James Jarvis. - Tales from Greenfuzz Issue 2 - The 2nd volume of the comic book by Will Sweeney. Mini Circus Punks - Peter Bagge: 5 Mini CP representing classic characters from Peter Bagge. Jeremy Fish - Platinum Turtlecamper - 150 pieces Friends with you - Naked Malfi with all pink skin March-1 - Invisible plan in a new version Minitrehouse By Nathan Jurevicius - Night Edition Bennzi 300 pieces. - Night Edition Naal 300 too - Bennzi's Crocodiles: Packs of two crocos sold in lottery Monsterism & Playbeast : - Fire Bone Fly An imposing new new pete Fowler figurine. Jermaine Rogers - Special Edition Squire Blue with gid eyes limited to 50 pieces. - Shadow dero 100 pieces. 360 TOY Group - Keith Haring's Andy Mouse - Green version Tokidoki - Polpettina, Bastardino's girlfriend in pink - Mozarella - 100 pieces Black and White Touma - Black and gray goon This is everything for the list of objects available for purchase (depending on whether you have been fast or not). Among the other small sweets that have been presented we will obviously retain the superb Kevin & Mr Spoons by James Jarvis who should conclude the series of characters from Mr Vortigern. Kevin is an impressive troll (in the 40cm) and Mr Spoons with his look at the Elvis will shudder more than one. 3 new toys of Nathan JEurevicius Also introduced, in the line of Benzii and Naal, the names escape me but we should see them appear very soon. The West Coast has really represented during this show, many excluded and dedications, we will go to the East Coast represented by Kidrobot and toytokyo Before making a more complete panorama of the forces involved.
