VTN... Whew!

What with finals, VTN and Gallery 1988 craziness (where I lackey it up), the past week has just about killed me. But I have dragged myself out of the grave just for you...

It was awesome seeing everybody out at VTN this past weekend! Pretty in Plastic had a sweet booth near the entrance, showing Monty's Mad Puss and Nicebunny's Wack toys in NEON!! (Somehow, the word neon seems to require caps and exclamation points.) And Scott Tolleson showed off Pretty in Plastic paint samples of Doc Von Block at his booth.

I thought Super7's Bemon was awesome but ended up getting some minis instead, agonized over whether to buy all the Treesons I could find, picked up some prints and even won a print in Spanky Stokes's raffle (yay free stuff). There was a lot of great toys (if only I could have them all...) but I forgot to grab some zombies. Arghh.


So since sleep deprivation may make my writing a bit slurry, I'll let pictures and others do the rest for me:

At the Pretty in Plastic booth...

Julie B (the force behind Pretty in Plastic)



Mad Puss got a lot of interest. Monty had prototypes on display with the release coming next year. He also had some prints (more on those later) and an animation which you can watch at Mad Puss's site here.

Wack in NEON!! What more is there to say?
More info and to buy (only 4 left!) @ Nicebunny

(Thank you Jeremy Brautman and ToyCyte for not subjecting these poor fools to more of my tired rambling...)


Evil Poopicorn was also released at the VTN after party/Switcheroo open house...
Vinyl Pulse has pics. (Check out the poopy fare!)


And before I go, Pretty in Plastic open studio Thursday 6-9pm in the Spring Arts Tower! Be there!

VTN News!

VTN is coming up in less than a month and I am super excited!! VTN is Vinyl Toy Network and will be taking place December 6-7 at the Pasadena Convention Center. We'll have a booth with some exclusive guests--Brian Castleforte a.k.a NiceBunny's Wack & Blite toys in a special colorway. We'll have six for sale, and they come with a print and special packaging, too.

And for those who didn't see Wack & Blite at Brian's Mobius show in June, be sure to check these out at our booth. I'm looking at one right now and photos don't do these guys justice.

(But here's one [of the original colorway] anyway.)


Also, be sure to check out Scott Tolleson's booth at VTN. He'll be showing new paint samples of Doc von Block, who debuted at SDCC earlier this year in a limited edition of 25. These are awesome, so go take a look!









I'll be posting more photos of Doc soon.

This comes to you first from our Pretty in Plastic newsletter, so be sure to join our mailing list.

Also check out more VTN exclusives here.

Wack & Blite - Paint Samples Debut

Brian Castleforte and Pretty In Plastic debuted paint samples of Wack and Blite at Mobius Gallery. These are the first paint samples of the resin sculpts of his vinyl Tribalnots.

King Wack and Blite are from Brian's new series of characters called the TRIBALNOTS.






A custom "RED/GOLD" version was raffled off, and all proceeds went to Children's Hospital of Los Angeles and AASK (Aid to Adoption of Special Kids).

Visit NiceBunny's blog for more info about the show and the TRIBALNOTS.
