luke314pi Posted July 2, 2009 Share Posted July 2, 2009 ... Because I have a 2-page article published in this issue on customizing minimates!! Toyfare contacted me about 2 months ago after they spotted my Psycho set at CustomCon. If you are familiar with the magazine, it is a Customizing 101 article. These features show how to create a custom figure in 10 steps. I'm not going to tell you which character I made, because I think it will be a pleasant surprise. Anyways, its issue #145 on sale next Wednesday! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gambitron Posted July 2, 2009 Share Posted July 2, 2009 That's awesome!!! One of the best days of the month is when my Toyfare shows up in the mail. Can't wait to check it out. It's awesome to see something you have done in a place where everyone can check it out. The last issue of Star Wars Legacy published one of my letters in the back of the comic and I was elated (not that my thing compares at all to what you have done, I just can realte to how it feels).

luke314pi Posted July 2, 2009 Author Share Posted July 2, 2009 Thanks everyone, I am pretty excited to actually see it in print. Apparently the Toyfare editors even gave the article a shout-out at the customizing panel at Wizard World Philly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MINI_MYTE Posted July 2, 2009 Share Posted July 2, 2009 (edited) Congrats Luke! Isn't it great to grace the pages of Toyfare? I've been there myself a few times (a long time ago). Anyway, I'm totally stoked to see you article. C'mon next Wednesday! Edited July 2, 2009 by MINI_MYTE Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luke314pi Posted July 3, 2009 Author Share Posted July 3, 2009 I should probably mention that the article doesn't really cover anything I haven't already talked about on the Factory before. Its mostly for people unfamiliar with customizing minimates. I am just very excited. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bob Harris Posted July 4, 2009 Share Posted July 4, 2009 I'm out of it for a little while and everybody gets delusions of grandeur. Respect and congratulations, Luke! That are awesome news and you really deserve being "spotted". And that I'm not going to tell you which character I made, because I think it will be a pleasant surprise. means we are going to see a hell of a conquering Kang custome, right?
