Thanks Lou for the update!

I saw these not to long ago via Facebook, I will definitely be getting one of those Vlad plushes for the child.  Her plush collection has become quite impressive with NYCC exclusive plushes since she was born from Uglydoll as well as some other toys that she isn’t allowed to play with yet (her Yo Gabba Gabba x Kidrobot set from her uncle).  I can’t wait to see what else gets revealed this week for NYCC!

The Japanese have definitely got it right with their promo stunt, turning the hand rails on the Tokyo subway system into brightly lit lightsabers.

We can imagine Japanese businessmen taking hold, making “zoom” noises in their heads whilst imagining that they are on their way to rescue a bikini-clad Princess Leia, rather than simply commuting for another boring day at the office.

That’s for sure… I know if they did that here in NYC they would not last, people would find ways to get them off the trains.
