 Rotofugi - Toy Karma - Chicago - September 8th  Presented by Mark Nagata http://www.maxtoyco.com/toy_karma/I just read more details about this show at toybot's blog. Featuring works by: -- Bear Model -- Tim Biskup -- Blobpus -- CCP -- Chanmen -- Bob Conge -- Ralph Cosentino -- Cronic -- Dream Rockets -- Bob Eggleton -- Joshua Ellingson -- Carlos Enriquez -- FarEast Monsters -- Steve Forde -- Gargamel -- Koji Harmon -- Rae Huo -- Katope -- Frank Kozik -- Jing Lee -- Jimbo Matison -- Mark Miyake -- Mark Nagata -- Martin Ontiveros -- Real Head -- Rumble Monsters -- Bwana Spoons -- Alex Wald -- Zakka Exclusive toys by: -- Cronic -- Rumble Monsters -- Real Head -- Blobpus -- Max Toy Company Also, Quote: FYI...there will be a preview list for show pieces (pre-sales): Send an email to toykarma@rotofugi.com to get on it! Show exclusive toy releases, however, will not be available for pre-sales. First shot will be at the opening, and then if there are any left, we'll offer them through the online store in the week or so following the opening. I'm very interested in finding out what the RxH, Blobpus and MaxToyCo. exclusives are. I'm assuming the GID + Pink + Black Blobpus in the flyer image is an exclusive (can we get a Kaijin in that flavor, please?). Also -- Work by Bwana, Koji, Martin Ontiveros, Kozik, Bob Conge, Mark Nagata and a ton more? Damn, sounds like quite a show to me.

I am more than mildly excited about this. Frankly, I have to keep reminding myself that this is actually happening. It is also the same weekend as my birthday which cannot be coincidence.
Hold up...people are actually coming into the Midwest for a show? The world has gone crazy, lol!

Yeah, I was there my whole life but Daley wants to eliminate the middle class so I had to leave. Heart attack heaven though, mmmmmmm Polsh sausages filled with cheese, batter dipped on a stick and fried...good times.

Also, a word to the wise. If you are thinking about going, I would book a hotel soon, as this is the same weekend as the Chicago Half Marathon, which brings in tens of thousands of runners, and the hotel prices are reflecting it. I had to use points. And if anyone wants to join me on a 13.1 mile run come Sunday morning, lmk. When in Rome!
