December 19, 2008 : I am a Figure, and my name is Anakin…

Dear Fellow Star Wars Fanatics!

Oh my gosh, oh my gosh , oh my gosh… He’s here he’s really here! The UQS Anakin has made his way to my desk and I took lots of great photos of him for the blog gallery. Keep your eyes peeled because he is just as awesome as the others have been. I couldn’t wait to get this guy, although in the movies Hayden Christensen doesn’t really do it for me, the character himself is really deep and super involved, I love the twisted and tortured one’s! The eyes are great on this sculpt, I kept catching myself really focusing in on them when taking the pictures. The hair is also spot on, I was skeptical that the hair would come out perfect but it did and I almost with it were real hair and not resin. Enough gushing, Anakin is here and he is awesome, I can’t wait to share him with all of you!

: Ahnold sez: I’m BACK!

Yeah, if the title of this post is suitable for all ages it means DSTChuck edited me. That’s The Man keepin’ me down. Anyway, look what we’ve got in the works kiddies! Governor Arnold on his way to a ribbon-cutting ceremony at a new LA shopping mall. Heh, just kidding. Yup, we’re going after the T2 license and we’re using this as our calling card. Don’t worry if a few details seem off, he’s a work-in-progress. This guy came together in record time, thanks to the dedicated work of my freelance crew, so we could debut him at the Dallas Toy Fair in early October. Stay tuned for more updates!
