Minecraft Series 2 Stone Blind Box

Been meaning to get this posted so will have some blind box openings in the next upcoming posts. You can never get tired of opening up blind boxes/packs/bags etc... Everyone loves a good mystery...well... to a certain extent. Blind boxes/packaging should be fun but should also be affordable/reasonable.

Here we are with Minicraft Series 2 Stone Mini Figures Blind Box. Picked one of these up while out shopping. Only in the blind boxes are you able to get certain mini figures Undead Horse, Saddled Pig, Tamed Wolf and Steve? w/TNT. (see pics below)

Big WOW! ComicFest 2015 Recap

Last weekend, The Big WOW! ComicFest was held at the San Jose Convention Center in San Jose, CA. This is the Bay Area's Biggest Comic-Con since Wondercon has not had a presence in the Bay Area for quite a few years now.

San Jose Convention Center
The weather was perfect. The show was great this year! It did get a bit bigger than last year or maybe we're not as jaded as we were the previous year. You can't compare this to say SDCC or Wondercon as those shows are filled with Movie/TV Studios. There were lots of artists and vendors selling their merchandise from cosplay weapons, replicas, toys, collectibles, comics, art, t-shirts and lots more. What we would love to see more of is indie toy makers. We know there are more of you out there!
