Coming Attractions

* I got an email today from Gorbachev Philipp, the director of Plastic-Fantastic.ru (a designer toy retail site in Russia), expressing interest in my toy!

The extra-wild thing is, they're already going to be sold in Russia - one of my Flickr friends, Sergey Safonov (aka iron _Lung) bought some of my "Happy Beaver" toys to sell at his web shop, lunohod-1.ru. I can't wait to see it 'in the store'. Hopefully, I can get a picture of my toy somewhere in Russia, too - cool!

* This past Sunday, I wrote my responses to an interview for flipanimation.net, an online magazine by animator Steve Moore. Steve and I went to the same college, but I think he graduated in '83, and I arrived in '84. Anyway, he was interested in asking me about my toy collection and my ongoing "Happy Beaver" project, so he wrote me up some questions, and I... answered them. The interview will be in the March issue of Flip, so keep your eyes peeled! Better yet, subscribe for free today!
