We had so much fun at New York Comic Con meeting up with friends, visiting art shows, and pawing our way through the people at the Convention Center. Plus, Dov talked toys on the “Meet the Toymakers” panel. Just posted some photos to Flickr. Enjoy them here!

Time for math! There are 16 artists in the Super Suck Up! including The Sucklord. 2 artists decided to make custom pegs instead of figures. Guess they are extra special! As the Sucklord has paid homage to the beloved Peg People of our youth with his Suckpegs, now Scott Tolleson sucks up to Mr. Sucklord with this gold bikini-clad Princess, an awesome take on an original card that Scott had in Suckpax 2. A mash-up, that keeps mashing up.
Bonus pic! Here’s the card that inspired the figure!
