Big WOW! ComicFest 2014 Recap

This was our first year attending the Big WOW! ComicFest at the San Jose Convention Center. We were pretty impressed with the show. This definitely fills the void of not having Wondercon. The best things at the show were the Famous Monsters booth, The Batman Museum, The Batmobile, BTTF Deloreon and the Ghostbusters Ecto-1. Boom! Studios & IDW were a couple of comic publishers with a booth at the show. There were tons of Funko POP! and Mystery Mini figures at multiple booths. Psycho Donuts was also there with their interesting donuts and cakepops! They were stationed outside of the exhibit hall. Big WOW! ComicFest was a good show. They had some great panels too. Overall, it was a good, quality show!

May The 4th Be With You Event at Super7 Recap

A bit delayed in getting this up but better late than never. We were at Super7's May The 4th Be With You event. By the time we got there, the event had started. We saw a few stormtroopers crossing the street and making their way to the event as we rolled passed looking for parking. The Stormtroopers were out in force standing guard outside Super7. They were definitely attracting a lot of attention from people walking by, driving by and especially the tour buses that rolled through the streets. Super7 was packed! Always a great event to attend! Check out our pics below. We also have a few other pics not seen below which is on our instagram.

Bwana Spoons' 5th International Globby Day

In celebration of the 5th International Globby Day today, Bwana Spoons will have for sale a bunch of customs for sale in his store HERE around 9am Pacific. In addition to customs, he will have a new Uh-Oh Globby release and maybe a Globby print too.

For every order that is placed in Bwanas' store you will be entered into a raffle to win various prizes. The 2 shown above will only be given if there are a good amount of orders.

Here's the breakdown via Bwana:
Anywhere up to 29 customers, & one lucky person will win the back pages spread of forest island characters original art from my Welcome to Forest Island Book. 30-49 individual sales and I will also be raffling off a one-off biggie sized Globby. Gargamel sent this to me a while ago. We had the idea of flocking Globby’s sweater, but getting the head back on without damaging the flock was too tricky, so the idea got abandoned… creating a pretty rare Globby.
 

Now the rarest of rare. If I get 50 individual sales I will be giving this Globby prototype away. This was made by StrangeCo way back. There is only one. I figure this is a longshot giveaway as I only get 50 customers in a day…. very rarely… usually only a couple times a year. But… if enough people pass this info around and follow thru tomorrow… some lucky nut will get this Globby. And no, if it’s not raffled off, he will not be for sale. just want to do something special for tomorrow’s 5th international Globby day.
