    a bunch of them were sold at the Taipei toy fest...but yeah I thought there would be more than 5 sets available at SDCC....

    In any event, there are plenty more in the works...

    No worries, the guys were nice about selling them. And i was lucky enough to get the first painted release so I hope these ones went to people who didn't get a chance at the frist set. I look forward to more releases of these two as well as the third sculpt.

    hey guys, Unbox didn't mean to create any confusion, there are a substantial amount of the red pair that will be available soon , info via twitter@togetherplus or unboxinfo@gmail.com to get on the mailing list. Notifications go out on the Unbox mailing list, not mine.

    I've been seeing people's picture from SDCC, the little red guys look like they are having fun.

    As always, thanks for the interest!

    I was one of the 2 people that were in line that were allowed to buy a set. When I got there at like 20 mins before the sale there was noone there so I chatted with Triclops and Chris from Tarantulas while they set up and by the time they were ready to go there was a mob. Glad I was able to get a set to go with my Blue Grass Greasebat. I passed on the clear Greasebat though.

    That's awesome. Congratulations!
    The silver eyes and teeth on these really pop nicely.

    Yeah the Metallics are super nice. So far all the paint apps on this pair have been really great.

    Curious....I think a bunch of us got an email from Unbox saying that since we were up so early like 3 or 6am for the first release, that we will get notice of preferred pick for the next release. I'm guessing the SDCC release wasn't the one they were talking about? Since I don't think we got an early option to buy?

    Unbox wasn't actually there. Triclops was selling the few sets they had, so I'm guessing when these go online you'll probably get notified about what you're referring to.

    It was me and not looking good for a 3rd run. I've been getting increasingly more busy doing customs and it took me over a year to finish the MK2 shirts. Run 2 more than tripled compared to run 1, so I don't think I'd be able to fulfill the demand for an MK3.

    Yeah there was a totally transparent Greasebat with guts. I missed the drop but there was 1 left the last day when I ran past but had no money left.

    Apparently that one last one that you saw was display only. Robbie from the KR forum tried to buy it but they wouldn't sell it to him.

    Word, that's what I figured. I was asking him if it was you at the MW table, but he wasn't sure.

    That Spikewad teaser is looking good Jeff.

    I hope you guys make him in the gold colorway too, so I can have a matching trio.

    Bumbles don't bounce!!! Rankin & Bass, undeniable influence!

    Thanks guys.

    Spike Wad is coming along, there will be some similarities between it and the other Unbox toys, specifically the interchangeable parts.

    Coming soon!

    On a side note- I've been working on a large figure via Unbox that will be pretty excellent. Diligently sketching ideas for the last several days, trying to get the proper look and feel...I'm really excited about it. So many possibilities...missile firing fists or chest were to expensive to produce unfortunately.
