So lately I’ve emmersed myself in the world of kubricks and be@rbricks. My main focus is be@rbricks, specifically the 400% and maybe the 1000% variety but from time time certain kubricks come out that grab my attention, like these Megaman ones now available in the US. Although they are of the 100% size they are definitely hella cool. Plus each set comes with a kubrick and a be@rbrick so it’s a win/win. The sets consits of Megaman and Proto Man with an accompanying 1up be@rbrick. Act fast as each set is limited to 500 pieces and sold exclusively through the Capcom store.
So this past week hundreds of Star Wars afficionados gathered in Orlando at the Orange County Convention Center for Star Wars Celebration V. It’s pretty much like Comic Con except it’s all about Star Wars. Like the Con there are various activities that take place throughtout the 3 day event and one of them this yeard had George Lucas breaking out of the Skywalker vault a never before scene clip from Return of the Jedi. Safe to say it’s nothing short of awesomeness.

If you’re Adam Gontier, lead singer of Three Days Grace then you got the paper to make it happen. Constructed by Chris Conte, the project took 3 months to complete as 11 separate silicone molds were taken from the master to create the wax models needed for the casting process.
