Toy2R at VTN '08
One of the best surprises at VTN today was the markdown on Joe Ledbetter’s final edition of his popular Smash figure. Many fans lined up several hours ahead of the event’s opening to get the mono colorway produced in an edition of just 150 pieces by Toy2R. Kevin Winnick, who heads up Toy2R USA and can be seen above, cut a third off Smash’s price, bringing it down from $150 to $100. The man is a generous dude, as evidenced by the fact that ToyCyte is now in possession of a mono Smash for one lucky reader–stay tuned for the contest. While I lamented the lack of a proper Happy Chanukah 8-inch Qee bear among the pair of Merry Christmas bears, it’s hard to be a poor sport when there’s a black flocked Dr. Bomb nearby to stroke. I picked up a couple of Kozik’s Redrum Qees and peeped some of the newer and prototype items Toy2R is working on. Check out the tiny Toyer zipper pull and the Toyer concept bank–a great way to save up money to buy more Qee!
