IN AMERICA!

Hello Hello!

Ok, this 'not writing anything on the blog thing' has gone on just about long enough!

Things have been a wee bit nutty - wrapping up painting for shows like Wonderfestival and Grasshut's "It Came from Sandiego" - moving my home and all my stuff from Northern Japan down to a temporary storage spot in Tokyo - and now traveling to and around the USA!  Lots and lots happened at the end of July, and there are oodles of toys that hardly got up on the internets (many of which are off at new homes already!).  So, here's a post all about playing catch-up.  Pics and some words from the late July and early August Rampage Toys' world :-P

SAN DIEGO COMIC CON!

There were RAMPAGE TOYS in decent numbers represented at the Dragatomi Booth durring this years SDCC.  All but the Cyclops Dinos went away with happy new families :-D

First Painted Run of the Cyclops Dinos!  The leftovers of these little guys are up on the Dragatomi website, here:  http://dragatomi.com/products/cyclops-dinos-by-rampage-toys
SDCC Dinos!!!

Manotaurs - 2 versions.  We did a few more of these after SDCC, and they are up on the Imps and Monster's website, here: http://impsandmonsters.com/3dstuff.html

One of the biggest toy/model events EVER takes place twice a year - near Tokyo.  I was able to attend with a box of goodies - just before departing Japan for my summer travels.  Highlights of my little bundle of toy love included:
