Some photos from the con here http://www.flickr.com/photos/mutantmassacre/

Highlights of the con:

Rad room at the ever busy Hard Rock hotel
Meeting one of my idols, Dj Shadow
Selling out my Chino B figures
B.Flynn telling me he thought the Chino figures looked like"Teen Wolf"
Meeting peggy bundy aka Turanga Leela aka Katy Segal
All the Furries, SO many Furries
Sharing my hotel room with half the skull brain message board
Lamour showing me the Super Star artist ropes ( he's my sensei)
Seeing Lamour run from the cops like he has 2 strikes and a warrant!
The petty cab russian girl "Ula"
Hanging with Hiro and Ito-san
Chad and Cheetah from Draven shoes hooking it up
AND tons more.

Things that sucked:
Hasbro and Mattels fucked up system for purchasing items from their booth
Gargamel getting a painting stolen
Freeman changing the rules about using a dolly every day
GR having a beach party 20 mins from the con, and then it getting broken up by the police, and the cops pouring out my Beer.

.


Oh J. So many good times to reminice. I've got to add to your list though. Although this is only some stuff and not all. Too many to name.

Rad room at the ever busy Hard Rock hotel. Providing real entertainment.
Image
Meeting Stan Lee and having him sign my back and tell me I was crazy.
Image
getting in between a Disney sandwich
Image
watching Hiro and Lorne fight over Karen while smokin cigarettes
Image
watching all the Sb'ers hang and chat it up with Pushead.
Image
having my friend Seth make me feel guilty ever time I just wanted to go home and sleep
Image
celebrating Katsu's (MadBarbarians) 39th birthday at the strike of midnight.
Image
Meeting plastichunter and realizing that if I get to be his age, I hope to still be half as entusiastic as he is about toys.
Image
Meeting Chip Kidd and hear him talk about his new book: Manga-Batman.
Image
meeting the legendary PK
Image
hanging with Tossy of the Cure and him giving me the lowdown on why BxH painted his Vader the way he did. Very cool dude.
Image
having Bert keep me up all hours of the night with his Chainsaw which he would turn on while he slept. (no pic)

Meeting such cool SB'ers and their lovely significant others. I didn't know SB'ers were such studs!.

Playing VIP room police men with Greg at the Strangeco Party and Tara McPherson basically walking by us and telling us to get the Eff out of the way. Classic.

having a scantily clad warrior Valkyrie beat me with a stick. ( I asked her to)

Seeing my art in Scott's zine! So stoked.

Mutant X Massacre continuing to destroy!.
Image
Onell making these for me and industry people snatching them up like hotcakes. Thanks for the support guys.
Image
Last but not least, Dream come True. Thanks Brian and Super 7 for making this year amazing. At one point I got to take it out of the case and hold it:-O. All I can say is Cosmo is true genius. Thanks and see everyone there next year.

Oh there's a filter on the boards, everyone with over a thousand posts has access to a "Fresh Meat" button in the forums and you can only read stuff marked by it once you get past 1000 posts. It was a pretty interesting story tho..
And the for sale section? Forget about it...the "no Fresh Meat" deals are crazy.

Was the Lorne/Hiro fight the only fight of the Con?

Seems like past years, fights were more common...

thanks for the kind words everybody...just now starting to recover from everything. breakdown, the zoo, and a red-eye flight took a lot out of me at the end...

and yes, my hair is gone...funny though, looking at that picture makes it look like I'm wearing that plastic hair helmet Devo used to sell...it's not much better in person, but it sure as hell doesn't look like that!

R.I.P. Longhair Lorne.

had a lot of fun...and will get in touch with everybody who wrote me as soon as I can...

Lorne is Lev's one man army. He's everywhere and all about business. Sometimes I have to remind him to relax and not be so serious :lol: Thanks Lorne.

Some company capitalizing on a not so respectful represenation of Obama, and getting away with it by donating a whole dollar for each one sold at 20 bucks a pop.

TT was selling them at SDCC. I bought one for Glenn.

The packaging is priceless tho' IMHO, as it says above the figure itself in a window box, "an action figure we can believe in..."
