About That "Malinky Robot" Press Kit from Sonny Liew

Besides the PINOCCHIO resin figure Sonny Liew had on show at his booth in Artist Alley for Singapore Toy Games and Comic Convention, what caught my attention was a particular box with a "Malinky Robot" sticker on the cover, and finding out from sonny that it was actually a "Press Kit" released at the time meant to promote the graphic novel, but was on sale then (first thought in my mind: "Free Before, Now On Sale") … and upon opening the package, was immediately charmed by the contents inside, including a printed currency (seen in the book), a faux printed newspaper/newletter, a CD of images ("press kit", remember?), and of course, the graphic novel itself.

What actually 'sold' me finally purchasing the box, was the inclusion of a hand-made cigarette box "prop" based on the one in the book (which held trading cards of the characters, which i thought was AWESOME hahahaha) - i love details like that, the sucker than i am hahahaha

And now, the kit is mine - signed on the box, no less - and here are some snaps of it to share :)
