New Toys Added to the Collection!

These were all picked up this past Sunday. Yeah, it takes me a while to finally open the toys and take pictures. Stopped by Super7 & Double Punch this past Sunday. Also went to APE in between the 2 store visits.

Super7 was the first stop. Parking is a pain in the u know where especially on the weekends. This was a Sunday which meant free parking so of course people would hog the meter spaces. You just have to be lucky to see someone pulling out of a space which after circling about 2 times I found a spot. Yes, I have a special fondness for Super7's toys as you can see. On this visit, I picked up Honoo by Leecifer, Power Mister by Sun-min & David Horvath, Skulletor Milton, GID Pocket Invisiboy, Invisible Creature's Leroy C. and GID Foster (Foster is sandwiched in between Lotso & the mini figures by Yajima-san).

Double Punch was my final stop of the day. Had to check the Heteromorphism show at Double Punch's Gallery first and look at all the amazing artwork and custom figures. Scored 2 mini hand painted figures by Yajima-san. Missed out on the Sea Kraken sets which I've seen in pictures looked fantastic! Hopefully more will be released. Of course I couldn't help but get the Chibi Plush Lotso as well. Favorite animated movie franchise of all time is hands down Toy Story.

More new toys just arrived but will share with you all in another post after I get some pics taken. Thanks again for reading and for your support.

APE 2011 Recap


APE 2011 took place this past weekend, October 1-2, 2011 at the Concourse Exhibition Center in San Francisco, CA. We haven't been back at APE for quite a few years and was very impressed with the size of the show. Lots of Independent artists and companies. More small independent toy companies should get a booth here. The cost for a booth or table is very reasonable.

Heteromorphism @ Double Punch Gallery Recap

Heteromorphism Art Show curated by Junichi Yajima (Yajima-san) owner of Dreamrocket. The Opening Reception was September 24th 2011 at Double Punch in San Francisco, CA. Unfortunately, we were not able to make it for the opening and missed out on meeting Yajima-san who came all the way from Japan. We were able to check out all the wonderful pieces that were still available at Double Punch this past weekend and picked up couple pieces as well.

The custom figures and artwork was amazing. Check out some of our pics below or click on the link HERE to view our album. You can purchase what's still available from the show at Double Punch's Gallery Store HERE.
