These little Tribbles came in while I was out of the office, so I was unable to see them as a family until now. How friggin’ cool are they?!?
: Evolution of a Canuck
So, you think these great sculpts come out right on the first try? Think again. Creating a comic book action figure or statue is a multi-phase process.

: Ultimate Quarter Scale Darth Maul; Ultimately finished.
Dear Readers,
I am not sure how many of you guys are actually here every day reading and keeping up with the new UQS line of Star Wars figures, but I am going to imagine it’s the first thing you do every morning before brushing your teeth. I will also picture all of you in bantha slippers and Jedi bath Robes, okay? Early this week you may have read about finishing up the packaging and having some issues with it. You may also remember me mentioning a bit of a surprise and leaving a big blank out of the posted picture as to keep you on the edge of your seat. Well sit on the edge no longer!!!
October 14, 2008 : Ultimate Quarter Scale Packaging
Dear Readers,
The UQS box is making a lot of headway this week. It has been through two rounds of corrections with Lucas and is looking like more and more of a possibility to get this to the factory this month which I believe would put us dead on for our schedule for the line. It’s very exciting to get these moving, for me at least because the sooner they get made the sooner I get mine! The box will have the Clone Wars style guide art, as we have gone over before, we are approving some special art work as well, that is top secret but will make the box a nice collector piece in itself. If you were wondering at all about any of the problems we were facing with the box itself, I did have a problem with the window size and the factory not thinking it would hold up in transit and the bottom of the box was not strong enough to hold the figure in, all those problems have been fixed and are looking perfect at this time, so YAY. go us!
