I realize I haven’t posted about the upcoming Sketchbot Custom Show taking place this Friday, but one look at the countdown located on Sketchbot.tv‘s site made me nervous that time was running out to remind people about making sure they got their butt’s down to MyPlasticHeart to see the pieces in person. I’d been holding [...]

Last night I was looking through my Flickr, and I realized that I attended at least 26 events this year. Well, with the announcement of When Hell Freezes Over, a custom show featuring Lou Pimentel‘s Cranston Fellows [...]

There’s a special place in my heart designated to give all things Shawnimal some love– and when I spotted his Pocket Pork series at MPH’s booth, that little area in my heart melted away. Series 3 brought a variation of coloways and expressions. My favorite being the mutant and sleeping porkies. They retailed for $11.99, [...]

MPH (myplasticheart Booth #866) added the photo above as a sneak peek of the golden monk they’ll be releasing this year during NYCC. VeggieSomething and CrazyLable have teamed up to bring us, Yoto.

I’d known when MPH posted the above image that their surprise was going to be Tokidoki’s Sandy in a platinum colorway. I was excited for the release, because Sandy is actually one of my favorite characters, which by the way, I’ve recently noticed I don’t own. She’s green and spiky, uh– that just automatically means [...]

As I had previously updated, Friday was Nakanari and Dave “Outta My Mind” Quiles’ Techno Babble show at MPH. Though I didn’t arrive early, since I had to go to a meeting, I was pleasantly surprised when I arrived to a steady flow of visitors coming in and out of the shop.
