“No production of high ideological and artistic value can evolve out of a creative group whose members are not united ideologically and in which discipline and order have not been established. It is necessary to collect both color ways in the correct socialist lifestyle manner in order to follow the path of Juche Thought.”, artist Frank Kozik.

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.

RECAP: APE 2012

APE aka Alternative Press Expo was held this past weekend at The Concourse in San Francisco. APE showcases the small indie companies and artists. Crunched for time, we weren't able to spend too much time at APE this year but walking around the show there were so many talented artists and companies and APE has grown even bigger this year with workshops and panels held upstairs where in previous years were held in the same general area as the exhibitor hall.  

Some pics from the show below:

APE on Sunday - Just opened so not too busy yet.

Up the stairs was where they held workshops & panels.

Picked up a few things at APE which included a stop at Super7's Booth for their Giants Baseball Boy, Mongolion & Super Mummy Boy T-shirt. Also couldn't resist picking up Jeff Pidgeon's Get Lucky Beavers. Wish this weekend wasn't so packed and busy or we would've stayed longer and take our time checking out everyone's work. See you next year!!!
