Review: Contemporary Krampus - A Modern Look at an Ancient Legend Curated by Mike Drake

Contemporary Krampus : A Modern Look at an Ancient Legend Curated by Mike Drake. Mike gathered over 50+ artists to have them create their own Krampus. Mike has been interested in Krampus since 1997 when he came across a Juxtapoz magazine. Contemporary Krampus is 118+ pages on glossy heavy stock paper. This is a Soft Cover Book and measures 8.5" x 11".
 
The text inside can be a bit hard to read since you have to make sure you open the book wide enough to read the text on the inner edges. That's the one complaint. Other than that we enjoyed reading it and looking at all the artwork inside.

Loot Crate - February 2015 - PLAY

This month's box can transform into an original Loot Crate Game Board.

So this month's Loot Crate (February 2015) Theme was PLAY! For us this month's Loot Crate was pretty underwhelming. Was really hoping for something to blow us away as in previous months. Here's what was inside the PLAY Loot Crate:

Voltron - From Days of Long Ago: A Thirtieth Anniversary Celebration Book

Front Cover

From Perfect Square is a Voltron From Days of Long Ago: A Thirtieth Anniversary Celebration Hardcover Book.  There are 151 numbered pages. The size of this book is 11" x 10".

Back Cover

Everything you've wanted to know about Voltron is in this book. There are 2 Main chapters, The Story and The Legend.

Perfect Square's Hello Kitty HELLO 40 - A Celebration in 40 Stories

(So busy the past few weeks with traveling for various events etc... and the last of the traveling is done for this year.)

Been trying to find time to check out Perfect Square x Sanrio's Hello Kitty HELLO 40 - A Celebration in 40 Stories (plus one for good luck) book. As you can see from the picture above, this is a hardcover book. The book is approximately 9.25" x 9.25". There are 143 pages and are conveniently numbered starting from inside of the front cover.

Back Cover

There are 40 + 1 stories inside from numerous artists such as David Horvath, Martin Hsu, Chanmen, Debbie Huey etc... Hello Kitty doesn't talk because she doesn't have a mouth. She does show emotion through her expressions. As many of you know before Hello Kitty Con, it was revealed that Hello Kitty is not a cat. She is a little girl. This was a shock to many but with Hello Kitty Con, Exploring the Supercute World of  Hello Kitty Exhibit at JANM and of course the HELLO 40 book to help us understand and know who Hello Kitty really is.

REVIEW: Unboxing Loot Crate October 2014 - FEAR

A couple of days late but here is our Review & Unboxing of the October 2014 Loot Crate with the theme being FEAR. Our photos are intentionally dark as they were taken outside at night with minimal lighting. We didn't receive our crate early enough to add more spooky elements so this will have to do with the time that we had. We were actually traveling to cover shows on Halloween. Anyways, pretty sure you've all seen the contents of the FEAR Loot Crate. If not, well then sit back and relax and follow along as we unbox the October Loot Crate!
