Subject:Nothing completed in time, do'h!
Time:03:22 pm
I know what you're thinking, John took a week off right before the Holidays? Well family came over to visit, my wife had most of the week off, and staying in the workshop hunched over painting was pretty much impossible to do. So with 5 things halfway completed nothing was ready for Sunday's auctions, sorry! However as Vader would command I'm redoubling my efforts for this week even tho Thanksgiving is tomorrow. I might even put up some buy-it-now auctions up for a Black Friday auction or two if I can get some stuff finished early! Treat those people who stayed home and didn't join the mad rush for cheap stuff on Friday. But rest assured now that I'm rested the rest of my customs will be resting in your collection this Sunday when normal auctions resume.

But fear not, I do have something custom related I put together last night, how to fill gaps using superglue and baking soda! This was explained to me a while back by a friend and it really works. Makes for rock hard fills and it's really durable.

In other news, Mezco is offering $50 in savings on their MezcoDirect.com shop! Just enter SANTAMEZ in to the coupon box for a hefty break for your wallet! You still need your Golden Army clockwork golem right? Also be on the lookout for Toys R Us' Black Friday sale. I've heard everything from Leader Class transformers being $20 to a bunch of their NECA stuff going on sale. So take a peek if you're free friday and see what they have.

Subject:The Merc with a Mech!
Time:12:53 pm
Ahhh, with Iron Man 2 coming out it had to be done! Our favorite wise-cracking killer with a giant armored bot of destruction. Also, TOXITRON! That unreleased G2 Laser Prime redeco shown at BotCon appears as a custom TFA figure. And a BAT disguised as a suit of armor. How clankity-clank is that?



In other news, ToyRocket.com's sale is indeed legit! They're liquidating everything and I got my order in just the other day, mint, complete, and for just $7.50 flat shipping. There's a ton of $2.50 Street Fighter figs left, DC Direct figs for customizing, and well, tons of stuff. Snag it up while ya can!

Subject:Anyone up for some MvC2?
Time:02:23 pm

This week, and it's kinda late for an update, I know, we have two new customs. A MvC2 Magneto revision with the Magnetic Tempest and Iron Man with Stark Weaponry. Both have been covered before as customs but I like to go back and tweak the designs as new figures come out over time and my skills improve. The DC Unlimited Red/Blue Superman bodies don' have such a wide stance as the original Superman body I made my Magnetos/Cyclops out of and generally look better. So I'm going back and revising those customs over time. Iron Man was just a fan-request, I suppose because the new movie is filming (filmed, are they done?) and we saw the new figures. Anyway, here they are!




In other news, hrmmm... ToyRocket.com is having a MASSIVE sale with everything in stock 50-90% off. But before you go off ordering tons of stuff, make sure you use PayPal. ToyRocket has been known not to have the best customer service and in case something fishy is going on with the sale, you'll be able to get your money back through PayPal's buyer protection. That's only if anything goes wrong. I do see things I ordered disappear from their instock search so I'm hoping it's legit and they really are shipping everything out.

Keep an eye on Hobby Link Japan!! From the time of this writing in 34 hours they'll be doing their free shipping (if you pay through paypal I believe)! That would be the time to snag all your Modeling Support Goods parts, ball joints, heck, whatever you want from them. Last time the free shipping was good for instock items only and man, you could order tons of stuff and avoid that $30-$40 shipping charge from Japan. So get crackin!

Subject:SPLATTER IN THE HOOOOOOOOOOOOOUSE!
Time:03:04 am

Ew, oh man, Splatterhouse was a violent and gory game for its time! Even now we don't have much crazy disgusting stuff like mutant babies hanging from ropes and festering eyeballs. So to honor such a disgusting and groundbreaking achievement, I created Rick from Splatterhouse. Also this week is Hooligan done Transformers Animated style! He's always been a fan request and I love his design. Also he reminds me of one of those GI Joe Tiger Force vehicles. Many of you have asked me why I'm not doing tons of Transformers customs right now. It's because there's so many great customizers out there with them on Ebay right now I'm pretty much just going to be doing the same thing. On occasion you'll get some weird TFs from me or the obligatory Shockwave, but not a ton of Leader Prime repaints.

 


In other news, GET TO YOUR WALMARTS! GI Joe Rise of Cobra figures are on sale for $5 each and the new ones like Arctic Snake Eyes with the cool baggy pants, Paris Persuit Baroness, and TONS of the Doctor (all black coats tho) have been showing up. $5? Can't beat that.
