Clockwork Machina!

Now I know I’m a bit late on the barrage of pictures from Wanfesu but let’s just hope that these images are the ones that nobody else took while there. I tried to look for more of the unique and eccentric garage kits and models. The convention itself was amazing and would recommend anyone to go, if you can spare the money, time and SDCC (as it occurs during Comic-con). It’s baffling to know that these are not giant corporate conglomerates making this kits, but private small circles. You start to wonder how craptacular everything is here in the states and how we don’t nurture this type of art.

It seemed like the figure boom is in session now. Private circles are making their own figures, we’re not talking about static figures but poseable ala figma/revoltech. Yes, the company won’t make the toy you want or it’s a crappy mold….MAKE IT YOURSELF!!!

We’ll enough of my rambles, enjoy the pictures! I must apologize as I’m not that good at taking pictures so excuse the blurry ones.

One circle was selling some Cat Shit One kits. I picked up the last one of this, lucky!

This circle had a Pretenders Transformers kit of Metal Hawk. I know Derrick is swooning for this right now.

Paper dioramas that you can download and make for your Revoltech Gurren Lagann figures.
