July 17, 2008 : Darth Overload

As you know by now we here at the glorious DST have been working day and night, in 24 hour shifts to get all the awesome new UQS (Ultimate Quarter Scale, don’t make me tell you again now!) Star Wars figures ready for you. I can’t tell you how many hours I spent on Darth Maul now. At night I dream about Darth Maul, and his many layers of outfits, and photographing said outfits, and revising the outfits, and blogging about the outfits. I think when I say we are almost there I mean it this time. By there I mean to the point where we are showing these off to the intenets and blogospheres around the world.

All the work I did the past week has apparently turned out to have not been exactly what we needed, alas I headed back to the photo room, god it gets warm in there under those lights (picture me hunched over dripping in sweat while desperately trying to focus on the amazing stitch work of our Maul figure’s forth layer of clothing (yeah there are five layers all together) and I have those wavy lines in front of me like you would see in the desert). I took tons of close up photos today of all the clothing layers so you guys can see the pain that went into each stitch, did I mention the real working clasps and buttons? Okay, enough shameless plugging of my favorite figure, back to business.

Now I have tons of pictures of Mauly and I am going to get them over to DSTChuck to have a look-see. I have a feeling this is going to be exactly what sales needs to have you guys fawning all over this figure, I know I still am, despite that it keeps me awake all night.

So for now I haven’t much else to fill you in on, except that we are all working hard to get the best stuff out to you, see you back soon.

From the sweaty tired hands of,
