NYCC was a nearly incomprehensible miasma of crowds and excitement and getting whapped in the shoulder by uncareful cameramen, but I survived the whole ordeal with bruised body intact. After a few technical delays, I'm finally home again, here to report on the onslaught of awesome. Read on for highlights from David Foox, Bob Conge, GoHero, Erick Scarecrow, Jure Gavran, Jared Deal, Eric Nocella, kaNO, Nakanari, NEMO and Brent Nolasco.

So, Kuso Vinyl’s new stuff didn’t show up on time for NYCC, which is something of a major bummer – but that’s okay! Weekend raffles and general amicability propelled the booth throughout the weekend. I happened to be there at the booth while Jure Gavran’s Criminal Billy was raffled off to this lucky young lady. While there [...]

They’ve just sent us this frankly adorable green porcupine who will make his debut only at the upcoming NYCC 09. The 5-inch figure is limited to 70 pieces, will come [...]

Sometimes things seem to take forever in designer toy land, and other times they come in at seemingly warp speed. We’re keenly watching the path of this Celsius figure from RotoBox and Bay Area-based Kuso Designer Toys, and so has been Mike Franco of Wizard Sleeve Toys–which scored an exclusive colorway of Celsius.

Everything comes in threes, so I’m expecting to be saying something else about Kuso Vinyl shortly. Besides the fact that they have (or had) a pre-order for Buff Monster’s KFGU piece, Jonathan sent us these pics of Iti-pinhead, a new figure by Itokin Park that they will be producing. This is the third piece for [...]
