 “It Came From SkullBrain" Custom Show - CLOSED!
So folks have been pestering Glenn for this since the day he started (myself included) and we got our wish!!!! I've gotten a few emails asking if they could join as we have a pretty impressive roster of artists on board. On behalf of Super7 I'm very pleased to extend this opportunity to you all. This is Super7's throw down, “Thank you for being a Skullbrainer”, “bring the HEAT” custom show. We'd like to invite as many SB artists as possible to participate. However this is NOT an open call. A limited group of artists traditionally outside the SB community has been invited. If you don’t have an active SB board account or I don’t know who you are you will need to e-mail me some samples or a link to a Flickr account etc. What: A custom toy show. Each artist is guaranteed to be able to show at least one piece and may be able to supply up to 3 pieces. If sold this is a 50%/50% split. To make this a little easier on the pocketbook Super7 has agreed to extend a discount of 40% on existing stock (as of Jan 30th)! The restrictions are NO RxH, or platform toys. If it’s not made in Japan please ask first. If you have a question regarding a specific figure please contact Josh: Phone: (415) 409-4700 Email: josh@super7store.com(please do not contact by pm on SB) Also, as I've been getting this question a lot, to clarify, if you need custom fodder and wish to take advantage of that 40% off dealio - You can just call the store and they can run an order through or send josh an email with the items you want, including items codes, and they can send a paypal money request to you. I can handle simple questions like “Can I bring my pony?” “Will there be beer?”, “Why are clouds in such a hurry?” – stuff like that. Basic show info: When: April 18th (Sat) 2009. Art needs to be at the shop April 13th. Where: Super7 retail outlet 1628 Post Street, San Francisco, CA 94115 Contact: (415) 409-4700 email: glenn@super7store.comIf you are interested please contact Leecifer ASAP to participate: lgajda@sbcglobal.net. Please include your name and board name. Oh and if you get the chance, be nice to the Super7 dudes as this is an increase on their work load to make this happen for us! To the part-timers (I don't think I know all of you - my apologies), and to Alex, Josh, Glenn, & Brian - thanks guys!!!!!

I asked about bringing a pony and this is what I got:
"You can bring your pony if you dress her up like a unicorn." - Glenn

 Re: “It Came From SkullBrain" Custom Show - "SBer" Artist Call!!
Is this only for people who custom existing toys? Can I re imagine ( sculpt) an existing toy , or toy line ( like SB fight figs) and be in the show?

Please e-mail Glenn on this. We had similar Q's w/ regards to resin stuff and I believe the short answer is "No". But w/ the discount they've extended to us you can pick up something for cheap and hit it up!

 Re: “It Came From SkullBrain" Custom Show - "SBer" Artist Call!!
Any chance there could be a limited ed. silkscreen show print made for this event? A rockin image and all the participating artists names listed at the bottom? I think this would be a great idea and a good seller. I would want one for shure. just an idea........

 Re: “It Came From SkullBrain" Custom Show - "SBer" Artist Call!!
I am not sure if you are being sarcastic but, from 1992 until the beginning of '94, I lived in Austin, Texas and was a silk-screen poster printer.
I mainly printed Kozik and Kuhn designs but I also printed a few posters for the Pizz, Joe Coleman, Coop, and more.

Do you mean 3 full-sized/regular sized or can they be 2 minis to 1 full or regular sized pieces? So someone could send in 2 minis, 1 full, and 1 regular...or is it just 3 total. Confusing? So am I.

A screen print would be cool.You can have these for free to give away if you want? I made 20 when I was learning how to print a few months ago.
