SKL0 "Live" Screen Printing @ #STGCC 2013

I was lucky to have been at Singapore Toy Games and Comic Convention on Day One when Samantha Lo aka SKL0 was on hand at the Mighty Jaxx booth performing 'live' screen printing - with the assistance of Ms 'Ratking' (which I was trying my best not to perv … c'mon, how could you not? YOU LIE ;p), the result of which were made available for public consumption, with the theme parallelling her "CULTURED" pre-order release at STGCC.


The description on the prints really clarified the concept even further than the resin collectible, methinks. Nevertheless, I am unsure if any of the prints are still left post-STGCC, and reckon you should bug MJ directly for availability ;p

Apologies I could have get any closer as the wall of people around the worktop was by then unmovable!

Seen @ #STGCC 2013: Play Imaginative

Play Imaginative @ Singapore Toy Games and Comic Convention 2013 was pretty "Iron Man"-ccentric, with multiple displays of their 1/4 and 1/12 array of Iron Man armored figures, and not forgetting their super alloy 1/6. As well a 1/1-scaled Mark 42 sat at the couch, no doubt a swell photo-op for attendees (I would've loved a snap truth be told, but I could hardly wait in queue for it haha). As well comic artist Adi Granov and DEVILROBOTS were invited guests, who were constantly besieged by fans and crowds, I could not even get a shot in LOL

The cheeky-side of me sighs a deep one, as I was not able to grab a snap with the sexy "Ironettes" hahaha





With the focus currently on licensed characters from Marvel and DC, the designer vinyl element of P.I. has but dwindled to a handful, most notably licensed characters from Disney, DC Comics, SpongeBob SquarePants, Paul Frank, Happy Tree Friends, with DEVILROBOTS' TO-FU Oyako being the sole representation of the "art toy crowd". Check out the new Panda TO-FU figure nestled at the back of the stand.

Check out my earlier individual blog-features on their Old Master Q and Shek Hei Long in 1/6, Super Alloy New 52 Justice League in 1/6, and Hammer Drones in 1/12.

Check out more images of the Play Imaginative booth via their Facebook album, and my own dedicated album :)

Seen @ #STGCC 2013: Hammer Drones in 1/12 from Play Imaginative

We first saw them in person at the Media Preview for STGCC, then in full display force at Play Imaginative's booth at Singapore Toy Games and Comic Convention, featuring the Super Alloy "Hammer Drones" in 1/12 scale aka standing 6 inches tall. If you know your "Iron Man" movies, these guys made an appearance in IM2, battling both Tony "Iron Man" Stark and Jim "Warmachine" Rhodes at the fair, before whiplash arrived on the scene!

With 4 designs / colorways shown, there are currently no further product or availability details as yet, but I reckon this a nice form to adapt, and not necessarily "another' Iron Man armored variation, IMHO.

Seen @ #STGCC 2013: Super Alloy New 52 Justice League in 1/6 from Play Imaginative

Seen on display at Play Imaginative's booth at Singapore Toy Games and Comic Convention were prototypes of upcoming Super Alloy 1/6 scale articulated action figures from DC Comics' The New 52 Justice League, with folks having the chance to check out the 5 characters, featuring Superman, Batman, Green Lantern, The Flash and Cyborg (no "Wonder Woman" tho) - all based on jim lee's redesign for the comicbooks.

Looking much more impressive than online images I have posted about, I find myself really liking this group - now seen closer - and appreciate the diversity provided, versus the purely Iron Man depicted series seen so far, IMHO.

Seen @ #STGCC 2013: Old Master Q & Tiger Dragon Gate from Play Imaginative x IND

Seen on display at Singapore Toy Games and Comic Convention (via the Play Imaginative booth) were two 1/6th-scale products due in collaboration with IND and Danny Chan (whom I had the pleasure to meet as I was hobbling my way of of the event hall on Day 1 haha) - the first of which is OLD MASTER Q - in two editions (and not interchangeable clothes as I had first expected) - both celebrating the 50th anniversary of "老夫子"!


I am frankly extremely excited about this figure, as it brings me back to the days of youth, when I devoured the comic digests, and as well I was a huge fan of their "Legend of the Water Margin" ("水虎傳") adaptation, so the kung-fu tunic garb is a MUST for me hahahaha

Kudos for P.I. for helping bring back a slice of nostalgia for me, personally. No product or availability info as yet tho :p


Another item of interest, was the debut display of the blonde-haired "Shi Hei Long" from infamous manhua "Tiger Dragon Gate" (aka 龍虎門)! Seen with an interchangeable head, depicting it's comicbook caricature design, Danny also mentioned that his two other compatriots will be included!

Seen @ #STGCC 2013: Army of Snipers

The Army of Snipers' booth at Singapore Toy Games and Comic Convention saw the trio of invited guests Aaron 'angry Woebots' Martin, J*RYU and Luke Chueh sketching up a storm, and as well presenting these fine selection of items - displayed at STGCC and posted below - which are currently available for purchase online, with enquiries directed to mastermind@flabslab.com. Time to get your AOS-on, folks!








Making a display debut at the event was also "Locket and Phainein",m a collaboration between J*RYU (sculpted) & Bjornik (painted) with this piece sized 3.75" and priced at US$250 per.

would've loved to be able to afford any of these babies, but I am stoked to receive this printed tote bag from Aaron. forgot to ask you to sign it tho! …Come to think of it, I have zero items signed or drawn from any of the gentlemen… *sigh*…
