    ^ah, 1 of 3. My mistake. I thought it was a larger run. Then yes, I agree.

    Hmm. I wonder if there was anything held back for Fri-Sun of the Con... that would suck if everything as already gone on preview night.

    Thanks for bringing up my mental break down though, like I need to be reminded of how much of a nut bag I was last year. I fully blame Joel, Sucklord, Drilone, Paul, some others, free booze at TT after party, the fact that a friend of mine owns the bar next door to TT, for that shit though.

    Nope .It was per schedule. Amy wouldn't pull that. It's why I chose to go with her.

    Low stock of blanks and plain old exhaustion from this shit. I feel lucky I barely had anything there.

    I got there at 4:05 and they guy in front of me bought the last Joe. There were a few gools and something resin left over. Made me sad. I didn't even see a boss. Amy told me that was it for the weekend and apologized like 10 times.

    ah well. I understand Paul. Thats the way it goes sometimes. I can't complain at all, I've been super fortunate as far as the Boss goes, and I thank you for such a wonderful toy. Don't get so exhausted that you get burned out though, ok? And remember- if you need a break from painting a release, I'm more then willing to do a run. ;)

    WHAAA... is this the first appearance of these? I had just assumed all the mini Bosses I had seen were resin.

    Dammit. Maybe they weren't resin. I was just sad for seeing the Joe being bought up and wasnt really focusing anymore. No worries Paul, it was gonna be rough no matter what. That's what happens when you only make awesome toys. Tis the game we play sir.

    The minis were vinyl. Everything sans the Gools was gone in an instant. You're a popular guy, PK.

    Just thought I would catch up a bit, since no one has posted any pic of the Superfestival Boss since the preview shots. Here is the one I picked up. I was shocked these didn't go like hotcakes, but I don't think the Japanese sofubi fans know what they are missing out on. A huge thanks goes out to Don for hooking me up with this guy.

    They look a little different than the TAG bosses.
    There seems to be more gold on these, than on the TAG ones.

    With the way these keep coming out I might change my boss collection to an all black vinyl collection. Poison apple, TAG, Scanner, TO...

    Since the pics keep teasing me, I might as well post them here...

    Wow, these guys really pop - loven the metallics! It's uncanny how fast PK hits the ground running so soon after DCon :shock:

    He's a magician. These are so nice.

    And, btw, I think navy blue vinyl was used with the Scanner boss

    I know the TAG Boss was done on the dark blue base... not sure on the Scanner Boss.

    Yeah I think both the TAG and Scanner are on the deep navy blue color. I just call them black because they primarily look black until you look at their few unpainted parts. If you see them in brightly lit/natural light you can tell, but for the most part look dark grey/black.

    Those new Boss Carrions look fantastic..*drools*

    I just hope I can actually score one somehow! Still don't own a boss carrion or a salamander joe but it's a goal for myself to own one before the end of the year. :(

    My guess is that these might be for Design Festa?
