Designer Con 2013 Recap - MVH & Paul Kaiju

This was probably one of the biggest event at D-Con that not only took over Paul Kaiju x MVH's booth but pretty much engulfed all the surrounding booths and packed the aisle. 2-days full of drool worthy releases & custom One Offs. This is big when other well-known artists are waiting to hear their numbers get called. A couple of pics is a bit blurry but was taken with a cell phone. Out of the 2 most wanted items we were able to get 1 out of 2 which is great and better than getting nothing. (Anyone want to sell their Sam Heinous Head?)

Designer Con 2013 Recap

Designer Con was held this past weekend in Pasadena, CA. This was a 2-day event. It was definitely bigger than last year. There were tons of good stuff to buy and something for everyone. If you like custom figures, they were pretty much everywhere. There were sofubi, resin, blind boxes, mini art shows, t-shirts and much more. There were quite a few companies and artist that came all the way from Japan. If you weren't able to come this year, definitely make plans to come out next year and save all your money because there's so much good stuff dropping that you'll go home broke.
