He graduated with honors from Art Center College of Design in Pasadena, California and currently lives and works in the Los Angeles area with his wife, artist Esther Pearl Watson, their daughter Lili and two French Bulldogs, Mr. Pickles and Gherkin.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><a title=\"STRWAS_dthvdr\" href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/dketoys\/35823173806\/in\/datetaken\/\" data-flickr-embed=\"true\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/farm5.staticflickr.com\/4209\/35823173806_f6c58dec94_z.jpg\" alt=\"STRWAS_dthvdr\" width=\"599\" height=\"640\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>========================================================================<\/p>\n<p><strong>Starkiller Coffee\u00a0by Killer Bootlegs<br \/>\n<\/strong><\/p>\n<table width=\"308\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"308\">Hand cast and painted 3.75&#8243; scale\u00a0carded figure.<\/p>\n<table width=\"210\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"210\">Signed and numbered edition of 50<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>$55<\/p>\n<p>Bio: Born in the 80s, Killer Bootlegs artist Peter Goral&#8217;s childhood was saturated with action figures, cartoons, and classic movies. When he was 4 years old, his father showed him a bootleg copy of The Empire Strikes Back. Little did he know that this would start Peter on the path to being at the forefront of the bootleg toy movement. Today, Peter&#8217;s artwork is highly sought after by collectors and has been in galleries worldwide. He has inspired and mentored countless other resin artists to follow in his footsteps. What started as a hobby collecting toys has grown into a full-time career for Peter, letting him do what he loves best every day, play with toys.<\/p>\n<p>@killerbootlegs\u00a0 twitter and Instagram<\/p>\n<p>Facebook &#8211; Killer Bootlegs and Peter Wheatstraw Goral<br \/>\n<a title=\"Starkiller-Coffee\" href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/dketoys\/35475979180\/in\/datetaken\/\" data-flickr-embed=\"true\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/farm5.staticflickr.com\/4277\/35475979180_74f40254a2_z.jpg\" alt=\"Starkiller-Coffee\" width=\"599\" height=\"640\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<div class=\"\" dir=\"auto\">========================================================================<\/div>\n<div class=\"\" dir=\"auto\">\n<table border=\"0\" width=\"416\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\">\n<colgroup class=\"\">\n<col class=\"\" width=\"416\" \/><\/colgroup>\n<tbody class=\"\">\n<tr class=\"\">\n<td class=\"xl24\" width=\"416\" height=\"14\"><b class=\"\">A Real American Value Meal by CNE\u00a0<\/b><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p><br class=\"\" \/><span class=\"\">This one is from a new company on the scene, CNE or Chicken Nugget Enterprises.
