I was labeled a Gwin fanboy recently. While I was slightly offended at first, I quickly realized it was true. Never considered myself a fanboy. I don't live in a basement, I don't haunt dark alleyways looking for comics, I bath regularly. Geek, nerd, loser maybe but never a fanboy. Oh well. Guess I'll have to move back in with my mom now.
Why was a called a Gwin fanboy? Because I've been geeking over the mini gwins that were released at San Diego Comic Con last month. Well I finally got some. 3 to be exact with a perfect little Z.O.M.B.I.E. (who hopefully will be the start or a giant Z.O.M.B.I.E. horde). They arrived on my doorstep Monday and I've been playing with them ever since. Each mini gwin came in a small bag containing an "I play with toys" sticker, a zombie magnet and was attached to an October Toys keychain. "Best promo idea ever!"
The Z.O.M.B.I.E. came carded and bagged, individually numbered 1-50. Mine is number 7. He even has a 7 on the bottom of his feet. He's great! The perfect zombie comic con attendee. He has glasses, backpack, Star Trek shirt, no fat chicks sticker, comic con badge, poster tube. You can almost hear him panting and wheezing as he hunts for free swag and fresh brains.
The blank black gwin didn't get much camera time, but the little ones are such camera hogs it was hard to squeeze him in. I'll make it up to him somehow.
I received some lovely packages over the last couple weeks. My last Gwin arrived, the "Gore" edition of Dok A's Gwin, straight from the man himself. He even tossed in a few badges!
The extra badges were a very nice touch too.
And here's an imperfect shot of the box, also splattered in Gwin "blood"
And then I receive my DIY Shiitake's from Eric Scarecrow! Now I just need an idea to submit for the Shiitake Parade.
I better hurry though, it's coming up soon. Maybe something with teeth - or maybe I've been staring at my Gwin too long. But as soon as I come up with an idea I'll be sure to post progress shots here.
It's not too late to get one for yourself: http://cgi.ebay.com/Erick-Scarecrows-Shiitake-D-I-Y-4inch-plush-clipon_W0QQitemZ230122691981QQihZ013QQcategoryZ230QQtcZphotoQQcmdZViewItem
And if you're like me you might want to buy a spare, just in case I mess up the first one.
