Re: FAMCON 1/6 Figure and Model Convention May 25th & 26th in Southern California-UPD

Had an amazing time. Scored some awesome stuff. Big thanks to Bigbrocha, Hot Chix Cool Toys Review, Black-Ops Toys, Silent Surfer, Denny Kim/IMINIME, and Ones Customs and his family.

Had a great time, didn't talk to any Freaks (that I know of) aside from Chris the organizer. Thanks again Chris for all of your hard work....and especially for tracking us down after we left our Son's Pokemon book there. Ooops.

Got some photos today, not as many as I would have liked....thanks to a sick Wife waiting not so patiently out in the car and a 7 year old begging me to buy even more stuff (than he got on Saturday).

Chris did an amazing job putting this stuff together and I was honored to be included. Velvet Morning and Silent Surfer are two super talented individuals and Denny is a cool cat.

I had a blast.

I also want to thank Chris for organizing the event. It was great seeing everyone I already knew once again and meeting other freaks for the first time. Hanging out and talking to the artists was also a great experience.
I especially enjoyed the freaks get together dinner. Drinks and food were good and talking with everyone really made it a good time. It was very nice of Denny to be there and give gifts to everyone attending.
Very impressive to see the customs entries and the collections shelves. That big Back to the Future set up with Doc and Marty was quite impressive and won the first place for the customs category. My Betomatali Pennywise got 1st place for Best in Show (I guess the people attending the show really like creepy clowns ).

I can't wait for emarae and ShortRound to post all the pictures they took. I only took one with my iPhone and it's with Denny Kim and Iris from iminime:


I hope to see many of you soon at Comic Con as well as next year for the next FAMCOM.

Ah, I saw you there today....didn't you sell me the Ghost Rider parts? I think we've also met at that one booth that sells HTs one day, when Tony & Crystal were there.

Anyway, congrats! I didn't get there until after 12:30 today as Chris was wrapping up, so I didn't even hear who won what.

Yes, it was me. Loved your Flash Thompson Venom, by the way!! I'm sorry I missed seeing you.

Thanks! I saw you and thought you looked familiar but didn't want to pull the "don't I know you" line.

Wow! Thanks guys for all your nice comments and support, it really means a lot from all of you. I really want to thank Frank and Son, Cal-Tek, Iminime, Sideshow Collectibles, the attendees, the vendors, everyone who helped in any way, and all the amazing artists that came out to the show, without you all your support the show would not have been a success and I look forward to seeing you all next year for FAMCON 2014!!!

That's funny.

Me and my girl whipped up the drippy "customs" for that sign for him real quick. We did the outline and Surfer colored it red

Great vids and pics fellas! Upon getting home I realized I talked to so many people at the show that I didn't get any pictures with my fellow freaks. I was bummed to say the least. But I do own the memory for life and that's whats most important!

The Famcom was a pure blast! It was a great pleasure hanging with my bros, putting faces to screen names and meeting new freaks in the process! Good times for sure!

Highlights of the show. Meeting Denny Kim and Iris and seeing Iminime's beautiful work! Meeting Scott Peterson aka Velvet Morning and his wonderful family. Also experiencing his work in person for the first time! I'm now a super fan! A real great guy and true talent! I'm watching Blade Runner this week Scott!

Seeing Nathan aka SilentSurfer getting busy in person, meeting his super helpful, caring and lovely wife "The Igor" of SilentSurfer's lab! and of course kicking it with Wendy and Jay of Hot Chicks Cool Toy Review and the homey One's Customs! His new work is just jaw dropping!

I want to thank Chris aka BigBrocha and Hector aka ShortRound for throwing a great show and putting together an awesome dinner with "all" the amenities!

Special shout to Mike aka PopCultKid for coming through with that Jack Black! We had to show em how NY does it bro!

Last but not least I would like to thank my most humble and gracious host the lovable Marlo aka Emare aka the King of Toys (Yes, he is! I seent it!) For holding my lady and I down for the trip and taking us around SoCal and showing us a great time! Love the Improv bro! What a riot! What da PUCK!!!!


Gonna post what pics I have shortly. Looking forward to next year already!!!
