Ok, I put up another one of my Mars Attacks artist return* sketch cards on eBay. This was one of my favorites. It shows a close encounter of a very different kind. :)

Alright kiddies! Designer Con is this weekend in Pasadena, Ca. Come by, say "Hi" and pick up some cool stuff!

Pimp2-D2's on eBay...

Since I sold Pimp2-D2's this weekend a couple have popped up on eBay at ridiculous prices and misleading info. If you want a Pimp2-D2, I will have 25 more at D-Con next weekend and will be doing an internet release later in the month. PLEASE don't pay $300+ for a this toy. You'll have a good shot at getting one for $50 if you're patient. That is all.

Comikaze Expo

Come see me at tables AA715 & AA716!

Pimp2-D2 PSA

A little more about Pimp2-D2 to clear the air. The truth has started getting blown out of proportion from eBay listings, etc.
So here are some fun facts about Pimp2-D2...

This was never a limited run. I made 40 for NYCC. 25 for general release, 15 for friends, colleagues, etc. I will be making more. The next release will be at Designer Con in Pasadena next month. After that, I will do an internet release.

The "early bird" packaging will remain exclusive for New York Comic-Con. The next release will have slightly different packaging.

Pimp2-D2 has NOT been formally banned by Lucasfilm or Disney. At least not yet.

There is always the possibility that I could receive a cease-and-desist from Lucasfilm, in which case there would be no more made. Until that happens though, I will keep making them at least through one internet release.

Pimp2-D2 public service announcement...

Hey folks, this is a little public service announcement.

Pimp2-D2 sold out at NYCC, but fear not, there should be an internet release in mid-late November.

Please don't buy one from the flippers on eBay. The two I've seen posted are asking ridiculously high prices. Be patient.
