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!

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.

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
