...will be hanging out with the River Children at Super7, beginning August 9.

Nurse Flash-it

Visited Junko Mizuno today and traded toys. We talked a bit about summer heat, art, travel, kappa, and of course toys. She is now working on a My Little Pony figure for an exhibit at the Hasbro booth at SDCC. It's super cute so be sure to stop by and see it. These are pics of Junko's Nurse Flash-it 8 inch Qee figure. And by the way, if you haven't checked out The Kappa Show at Moshi Moshi, do it now!

Coming to San Francisco

Just finished this Zagoran for my show at Super7 starting August 9. Clear glow vinyl. The show will feature Tokoji Seijin and several of his friends. Exclusives for this event will include a new Tokoji Seijin and another very special release. Details and pictures to come.

New Stuff

Got Matt Alt's new book the other day, Yokai Attack! This is the first detailed book on Japanese Yokai (ghosts, spirits, monsters) written in English. The book features profiles of the most popular Japanese yokai, fully illustrated, and done in a fun, easy to read layout. Definitely worth checking out if you're either into yokai, or living in Japan. You can see more of the book on Matt's blog, link below. And that's Garuban (Galvan?) on the left, a funky scrap metal creature from the Captain Ultra series.

Today

Got my international driver's license this morning. Pretty easy to do but it's annoying having to do it every year. On the way back, I got a pic of this crazy apartment building. Not sure what the story is on this but it's pretty nuts. Must be difficult arranging furniture inside. I locked myself in my room the rest of the day, preparing for the San Diego Comic Con and my show at Super7 next month. Got a few pieces done and decided on an upcoming Tokoji Seijin colorway. More info on that later. Today's soundtrack included Das Oath, Kid Dynamite, Mastodon, and Tragedy. Tragedy has to be one of the best hardcore bands rocking these days, highly recommended if you haven't already heard them. Later in the evening I head over to Gargamel's studio to put the finishing touches on the SDCC Tokoji Seijin exclusive. I'm pretty excited about this release. Info and photos to come.

Coming to SDCC

Coming to the San Diego Comic Convention, a new Tokoji Seijin release. This exclusive SDCC version is done in glossy green soft vinyl, and each will be painted with care by hand. Available at the Gargamel booth (number 4739) at the San Diego Comic Con, July 23-27.
