Opened tonight. Had to get in and out, but would have liked to stay for the process slide show. I was the first nerd in line and got my pick of the litter. It was a tough choice as it was all awesome.

EDT: Here's the pic.

It is indeed. Thanks!

The other piece I considered was the Hollis with the "zits/freckles" in GR's flickr, but I ultimately found this one more to my liking.

I think you made a good choice over that one. How much were those pieces ranging from?

Some very awesome customs.

You can check it out on my flickr:

Mike also did a slideshow of the whole resin process which was very cool. There should be some for the on-line folks. I was able to score this one:

Nice keiboba! That breaker lee is one of my favorites!

Slack, that one has a great surface that is pretty unique from the other ones. It's a very pretty piece.
