12 years ago...
Sunday, February 28, 2010 at 2:52AM This was the 1998 Mad Model Party in Pasadena.... probably the best show I ever had. I used to go by the name G-Zero, but this was before I knew how important it was to choose a business name that you can secure the dot-com domain for. At that time I only had a sub-page on my father-in-law's website, an afterthought which was ink-stamped on the back of my hurriedly designed biz cards. How the times have changed.
That weekend I only had 2 different figures for offer, but I sold a bunch of them. It was a real victory to get out there, meet the collectors, and sell my own stuff, especially after the crushing blow of having Streamline/Avatar fold up just after getting married. This show also would lead to the meeting that landed me a job at Mattel eventually.
Any guesses as to my age here? I know I look like I was about 13, but I was actually double that.
Another satisfied customer/shill/buddy.
