Frederick The Beetle - Front of the Packaging
The newest member to Super7's Monster Family is Bwana Spoons' Frederick The Beetle. Super7 & Bwana celebrated with Frederick Fest! this past Saturday. Check out our recap HERE. The first thing that you notice is the awesome packaging design for Frederick.

I must say, I am loving the attention to detail in the packaging. The packaging does make the figure stand out more. Frederick is awesome and I love the colors on him. He's cute and doesn't look scary or creepy like a real beetle. I'm looking forward to future releases. I think he's going to hang out with Boris the Bee now. :)

Bwana Spoons' Frederick Fest! Recap

Bwana Spoons' Frederick Fest! was held at Super7 today at 11am in the morning. It's pretty rare to have an event at Super7 early in the day when most if not all are held in the evening. The weather was rainy and cold as Northern California got hit with a big storm early Saturday morning which will continue overnight and possible the whole weekend.
Bwana Spoons was at the event in person as Super7 debuts his Frederick The Beetle, who is the newest member to the Monster Family.

Bwana also brought along a bunch of customs including Frederick The Beetle, Boris The Bee, Pocket Mummy Gator, Fenton, Milton, Pocket Helper etc.... He also brought along some prints, paintings and his Bearturds skateboard decks. Bwana also had games planned and even created his own game board.


Check the slideshow below for more pictures of the event!




It was a great show! Keep checking Super7 to see when they will put up what's left from the show!
