DCTO Release and SDCC07…

First off. Thanks to all those who made it out to the DCTO Release Event at :VOLTAGE:. The rain kept some away but it was a great turn out. Thanks to Christian and Erika along with Jennifer for hosting the event. Lots of prizes were given away and new friends made. Straight up, good times. Can't wait for the next one...

So with only a day before the SDCC, the madd rush is on to get my things together for the flight. I’m looking forward to hanging at the TQ booth#4937.

You may know, but I’ll tell you anyway, but I was asked to contribute a design to the new mini set designed by Keith Poon (ToyQube) and Klim Kozinevich (Bigshot Toyworks). I’ll be signing some blanks alongside artists: Andrew Bell, Keith Poon, Klim Kozinevich, Sam Fout, Steven Daily, and Jesse Hernandez. So come on by and see us. Also, I had the honour of naming the set (KANIZA-Cluster01) and doing the packaging design. Here’s an advanced look at the figures, the first cluster of star artists in the line-up, and the comp for the pack-aging layout. Let me know what you think. (be gentle...)

See you out there…

I kept walking by your booth, not having enough information to go on, just knowing that I wanted one. So I waited until Sunday, but my booth was too busy (and I woke up too late) and by the time I'd finally made up my damn mind, you guys had either packed all the DCTO's up, or sold out (hope for you it was the latter :).

Now that I've read up on it and know I want one - where can I order one from the states?

Greg: You can get DCTO from a few places online. Toy Qube will have 'Ghost' and the other colourways in the Ritual Brush paint design. Also My Plastic Heart and Rotofugi. Youcan check out the project site for updates on the store list.
