There is also a chase version which the display case inside the box will have K.A.R.R on it instead of K.I.T.T. Look around the web or ebay and you will see. I got the regular version.

SDCC 2012 Haul - Alex Pardee's Bunnywith Figures

We picked up Alex Pardee's Bunnywith exclusive figures from DKE. These glow in the dark. DKE released 1 Bunny a day. $5 each. When these were taken out of the bag, these smelled just like the old TMNT figures from the 80's/90's when you ripped them out of their packaging.

Definitely a highly recommended set to have in your collection. Probably one of the best buys at the con. Great price! They're small and won't take a lot of space. They Glow!

Oh and saw sample pieces of orange Bunnywiths at DKE's Booth. (see pic below)
These didn't sell out at SDCC and are currently available at Rotofugi & My Plastic Heart.

SDCC 2012 DOMO

Domo Creator - Tsuneo Goda
One of the best things at SDCC this year was meeting Domo Creator Tsuneo Goda. He had scheduled signings on 2 different days at the Dark Horse Booth. Fans needed to get a wristband in order to attend his signing. We were lucky enough to get a wristband and asked Tsuneo Goda for a sketch. (see below)

Fans of Domo were in a for a real treat this year. Not only were there exclusives that we'll get to in a bit but there was also a Domo Mini-Store filled with Domo merchandise. We have pictures too!
