Jerry, Lea, and I had a wonderful time attending DesignerCon 2009. It was a bit rough waking up bright and early. I was pretty proud of myself for having been so prepared bringing the materials necessary for manning the Muttpop booth (calculators, notepads, con info...). Then, 5 minutes before the con opened I realized I forgot my wallet. Ahhhh! I had about $100 in $5 dollar bills in my wallet ready for delivering change to fans purchasing stuff from our booth (nope, it's NOT stripper money!). After a bit of a panic frenzy, Jerry calmly pointed out he had some cash on hand. We got change for a couple of $20 bills from the always prepared Dov Kelemer of DKE Toys and began the show. It was great seeing all of Muttpop fans and attendees. I'd love to give shout outs to pato1001, MistaHippo, Kill, William Miller, Scott Tolleson, KiLL!, Ally, thepureguava, and everyone else for stopping by!

Muttpop Inc. is proud to be a part of the DesignerCon at the Pasadena Convention Center on Saturday, November 21st. At table/booth #45 we will be offering very limited quantities of Ocran Ocinatas Tequila and the yet-to-be-revealed Series 3 BUD Muttpop chase figure for purchase. We'll also be selling a variety of Muttpop classic toys and comics. Be sure to stop by and say hello to Jerry Frissen and me (Muttpop Bob)! Key information on the DesignerCon can be found below. Additional information on the convention can be found on the DesignerCon website. Muttpop will be at Table 45 (click on the map image below for our precise location).

Wondering what the Muttpop Series 3 BUD looks like? Jamungo is asking that we keep things super secret... but with some finagling, I got Jamungo to loosen their grip and allow us to slip out this teaser. I know, it's not the most explicit teaser. But if you know the cast of lively characters that Muttpop's produced as figures you should have a pretty good idea of what it's all referring to. This BUD will look might nice next to the Tequila BUD! By the way, any of you going to the Designer Con, this Saturday in Pasadena? Muttpop will be there. We may even have a few Muttpop Series 3 BUD on hand for those interested. We'll be right up front in Booth #45!

We'd like to give much love and respect to Nuno Santos for the amazing Dr. Destruction computer polygon animation he did. The polygon rendered figure does a wonderful job of capturing the Doctor's proud attitude and flair. Muttpop Nico first discovered the video this past weekend and immediately shared it with the rest of the Muttpop team. Great work Nuno! Thanks for the love.

With Halloween less than a week away, it's a good time to start thinking about what you're going to wear on a holiday known for its candies, costumes, and haunts. If you're Muttpop Bob, you pull out your musty old Mil Mascaras mask and wear it proudly. If you are David 'NOPAL' Gonzalez, you use a bit more pride in your costuming efforts by creating a menacing TEQUILA costume! In and of itself, a well crafted Tequila mask (complete with motorhead mustache) would make any Muttpop and/or Lucha Libre enthusiast proud. But NOPAL went the full distance on his creative crusade by constructing an amazing Tequila sarape down to its cactus designed details. If NOPAL does not get laid this Saturday for his sexy costume, either the world is not just or there wasn't enough tequila in the party's bowl of jungle juice fruit punch!
