    Wow, really happy to see Star Case is getting some international exposure. I hope this means more availability of their figures.

    Re: "Monsters From The Island" group show in NYC March 9 201

    Yeah for the Nag stuff Clutter said "By request of Shigeru, the majority (or possibly the entirety) of the custom one-off Nags made for the "Monsters of the Island" group exhibition will only be available through an in-person lottery during the opening reception on March 9th, 2013 from 6PM to 9PM. These full-size Nag figures include one Siamese Nag, six 4-Eyed Nags and three Crazy Eyes 4-Eyed Nags. The top row of Nags pictured below is a similar paint application to some of those made for this show, though using different colors.
    Information regarding any of the Nags being made available online will be forthcoming but is not assured.
    In addition, several of the other artists have requested that their pieces not be available online prior to the opening reception, so this will be a more limited gallery preview than usual.
    We apologize for the late delivery of this information and any inconvenience it may cause."


    On a side note, Beacon is about 70 miles north of NYC so I don't know why they're promoting this as a NYC show. Like jebcrow posted earlier..."you know beacon=nyc....bristol=london...fresno=LA"

    I should have said this before, the poster for this show is amazing. Love the geometric design and epic movie poster quality it has.

    I would never expect the nags to make it past the show anyways. but I dont see why things from the show would get sold before the opening. that would blow for the people attending.

    Yes, but it's a Clutter show and that's how they do it. Was crazy excited, now just somewhat interested. Doesn't matter though, it's much better for attendees.
