FX Show 2006 - After the Show

Well FX has come and gone, but WOW what a ride.

It was great! Lots of guests, lots of deals, and lots of fun.

Unlike years past, this year I was actually working the show. I was helping fellow board member Nakanari promote designer toys. We set up the booth on Friday night and right away started getting tons of questions regarding our displays. Here's a few pictures...

Here's the booth.

I also met this cool artist, RAK, (www.rakgraphics.com). I don't know why, but I just loved his work, so I purchased some cool cards from him.

He also drew this up for me, which I absolutely LOVE.

He's not the only artist that had interesting artwork, I also purchased these...

Now, the Green Lantern, Lady Death, and She-Hulk I only got because the artist was a friend of Nakanari and we had hung out a bit, so when I went to buy the Spawn print for $5, he threw in all the others for free.

Cool stuff!

I like those RAK cards (?) myself...........

Any new Mars-1 or Todd Schorr stuff on the horizon?

Now... onto the HAUL!! I got a ton of cool stuff.

Picked these guys up for $3 a piece.

Also scored these guys for $1 a piece... the one on the right was painted by Nakanari there at the show.

Now if I could only find a Lips, I'll be all set.

Adding this to my collection means I'm only missing a Stealth Iron Man. YAY!!

The wife saw this and thought it was cute, so we got it. Unfortunately I cut off her feet in this picture, and they are the best part. She has little red spikes all the way around them.

Stopped at Wal-Mart on the way to the con and found this guy. Which was cool because he was going for double there.
