Computer Problems...

Due to problems with the Desktop at the shop updates to the website have been few and far between. Also order confirmation and email response have slowed considerably. Things should be back to normal in a few days, thanks for your patience!

Wizard World Chi-Town

Chicago's Largest Comic and Toy show was awesome! Yikes! had a blast meeting people from the website and spent three and a half days handing out business cards and flyers. Numerous artists contributed to our Toys-for-sketches program so look for great new icons to replace the sites' originals. Thanks go out to Jason Loo, Paul Maybury, and Mike Todd!

Exclusives we stocked up on include the Invader Zim Old Man/Gir, Bloody Marv from Sin City, Bome Blue Sui, Catwoman, Kevin Smith, Minimates and more! They'll be added to the site by Monday!

Chicago was a great way to sell tons of stock! Right now we're pretty light on Marvel Legends, Marvel Select, He-Man Masters of the Universe, and a few other toy lines. On the bright side, lots of new stuff came in while we were gone and stocks of Godzilla, Family Guy, Spawn and Anime Girls are the biggest they've ever been!

After a hectic week of traveling and meeting tons of folks, we're still trying to wind down, get the site updated, and finish up the processing of the outstanding orders. There may still be a few inventory issues from the Convention so if you're unsure of a in-stock on a particular item, just ask!

Our next convention will be on November 20th at the Atlanta Comic Convention. After that, we'll be in Florida for FX in late January!
