Haven't seen these 2 mentioned: http://www.neighborhoodsd.com/ http://www.taco619.com/ 2 of my favorites in SD and both within walking distance of the convention center.
Sorry to de-rail the food thread but, I saw a secret-basex Ron English little vinyl McSupersized figure. Looks cool, it has a skeleton inside. I saw it on Toytokyo's blog...
I remember Lev telling me that Secret Base was remaking the supersize me, and this came out great. The inner skeleton looks awesome. These I will actually buy.
I think it looks damn cool. I didn't ever buy any of the other McSupersized figures. Now made with Japanese vinyl and a skeleton inside. I think I will get one. A gid inner skeleton would be nice...
Haha well don't get to far ahead of yourself, it did take Secret Base to make his toy cool, so I give the credit to SB.
I have always kind of like McSupersized. I had the original alternate version (green / pink) years ago. I would definitely like to pick up a clear with black skeleton one. Anyone seen a picture of the skeleton actually inside the outer clear vinyl?
Regardless of who designs Ron English stuff (secretbase, gargamel, western other) it does not translate well into toys. Fails everytime. I really like his paintings but in 3d form they are terrible.
Let me Clear things up. I want the Skeleton that's all. BUT if your a fan of his, Japanese vinyl and airbrushing may be able to recreate his painting style and lighting effects. BUT it will most likely disappoint.
It's O.K. if you really like the whole figure you can still hang out here. Don't hide your true feelings. I like this version as a whole. I like the grin figure too.
