    Superb coverage as always Andy, thanks for sharing those pics. It is great to see some overlap with some of the SDCC releases (not that I had any more luck grabbing any). I am especially chapped I missed out on the Grody monsters yet again :| I just espied some of those Medicom releases today, and it looks like there a tonnes of great figures down the pipeline too! I [heart] Dustman!

    Awesome, Andy! That Sammo Hung toy looks very enticing. I want one of them.

    Thanks again for the wonderful coverage Andy.

    And I agree, the Sammo-Hung is fantastic.

    Thanks a lot for this huge coverage !

    Medicom seems to intensify its sofubi releases more and more. Too bad it's opened to foreign customers less and less...

    Do you confirm Rainbow was not at WF this summer ?

    All of those M1s look totally golden to me - any one have any advice, public or private, on how some or all of them might be acquired? I don't want to step on anyone's score but I'd love some WF advice.

    Your coverage is absolutely insane Andy!!!

    I almost feel as if I was in Chiba yesterday.

    Great work taking so many photos and organizing them so nicely in such a short period of time!

    I'll second that. I didn't know Biker Scouts needed heels like that. No wonder they got pwned in the jungles of Endor.

    Yep. No word yet on when the debut figure will be released. Hopefully by the next Superfest.

    would love to own one of these joints but I dont have 1300 bucks or the space to run one. Theyre as big as a desktop tower but still makes a good stink. Saw it in action over at
