Announcing A New Happy Beaver Colorway!

It's actually a little more than that - Frank Kozik generously offered to do his take of my Happy Beaver toy! I got the turnaround last week, and it looks awesome - this will be part of my new toy release (though I don't know that I'll be able to get them done for July/San Diego Comic-Con).

The plan at this point is to make three new colorways of Happy Beaver, plus three colorways of Kumo-Kun in the same production run. That way, I can gradually release new variants of my toys for the next six conventions! That'd keep new stuff on the table for at least a couple of years. Keep your fingers crossed...!

Also, I'm in the very early stages of considering a resin figure with Bigshot Toyworks! I'm working on the turnaround right now, and I'll keep you posted as it develops.

PS - Toysrevil's I Like Toys blog is already spreading the news - thanks, Andy!

Congrats Jeff! Looking forward to seeing the Kozik Beaver in 3-D! Also, I'm currently working with Klim at BS Toyworks on a project. He'll take good care of ya.

I was checking out your Flickr photostream and saw a comment that you were still looking for the other Labyrinth goblin maquette. Is that still the case? A store a short ways a way from me has both of them I think.

I like him ... does he need a name? Maybe Butts the Beaver, especially if you can keep the cigarette.

Pricing?

I'm also intetested in the resin figurine ...

Hey, Mr. Pidgeon, I uploaded a video to youtube today that I think has you in it. It's of an old Mighty Mouse story meeting in 1988.

Are you in that, and if so, where are you?

David Glassey - I want the "sitting goblin" that's holding the mace. How much is it at your local store?

r.e. Labyrinth figure

I'll have to go in and ask the store owner as the figures had no price tags on them or near them when I was checking out the place. I noticed them when I was looking for that new Sideshow Cobra Commander figure.

I'll get the store phone number for you as well. Unfortunately it's in Canada, I don't know how you feel about shipping from here.

I buy stuff from My Plastic Heart all the time, so shipping from Canada isn't a big deal. Let me know...
