oh man that fuckin sucks. I don't think it's getting gangsta as much as it's a bunch of spoiled little brats who don't give a fuck about anyone but themselves. If I can make it to SDCC next year and one of my plans happens.....you guys will get some good fuckin laughs.

Yeah, that fuckin sucks. Plus, we think it was two or more people working together, and that a woman distracted the security guard, and then someone else grabbed it and ran. What's REALLY bizarre is that only last year ANOTHER Chris Ryniak custom was stolen from ANOTHER Mindstyle event! It really sucks. However, this is far from the first time such a thing has happened at SDCC. In past years there were original pieces of artwork stolen from some booths, rare toys, collectibles etc. So it ain't anything new, unfortunately.

In better news (at least for me), I scored the Deph Fatcap for a friend of mine, another Jeremy Fish shirt, the Luke Chueh head and the Blue Paw. Happiness. The best part was that I actually didn't pull a winning Chueh ticket. While we were waiting for the numbers to be posted, I ended up chatting with some peeps in line, one of which ended up being nyhousekid. He scored on more than one ticket, and gave one to me. Super major mega-props to him for being a damn cool boardie.

man - you got some great shit - Black lucky cat, deph, PAW - awesome!

For real! Makin crazy exclusives look like a walk in the park. You gotta bring that lucky cat with you everywhere now.

Hahah, right? It has, by far, been my most successful SDCC. Today I picked up the Amanda Visell Labbit and, unbelievably, the purple Paw!! I'm fuckin thrilled. Now, how the hell I will get them home is another story.. Regardless, it's been a great time, and I am done spending.

Just got back from my first visit to an In-n-out burger, went with the peeps from Rotofugi and some others. It was indeed delicious. Now I'm off to a pub crawl for my cousin's birthday.

Got the final paw and then hung out with kirby and whitney at in n out burger...You son of a bitch.

Yeah it was good times, for sure. I love those kids. No new purchases today, just showed up and helped them tear down their booth, then went out for pizza and drinks. Not looking forward to my flight home tomorrow. I took Tuesday off, thankfully, but I love this city and I wish I could make it out more often.

I'm sorry i missed it this year. Did it still smell like BO and Clown paint?

That's a lot of undesirable juice.

I would think the smell of energy drinks, doritos, and hot pockets would be a common smell at the San Diego Comic Con.
