Nyagira Tshirt & JANM Hello Kitty closing event

ContactMay9_2015

We’ve got a new t-shirt Pre Order ! One of my favorite artists, Javier Jimenez has designed this super cute Nyagira Cat Kaiju shirt for us ! Its being printed now by Monster Kolor / Dead Presidents Design, and Made in the USA.

Please order via our web store here :
http://www.maxtoyco.com/shop_item.php?id=1023

It’s a Pre Order, so we estimate this will take about 3-6 weeks to get them, but you’ll save a few bucks by pre ordering now ๐Ÿ˜‰

Now a word about the Max Toy Club, and how the heck do you join ! Yes, I’m sorry, I’ve been slooooowly working on this but we are so very close to re-opening the club in another month or so. When we do you’ll get a brand new Club Kit, re-designed by Javier Jimenez ( yes ! ) plus new goodies … and a special Max Boy figure only available from the Club. Full details very soon and thank you for waiting !

And, coming up Friday May 22nd, 2015, I’ll be attending the special closing Party for the Japanese American National Museum Hello Kitty 40th show. A bunch of artists in the show will be there, too, signing books. I look forward to meeting you all and I’m not suppose to say, but there should be one last Hello Kitty Kaiju released ๐Ÿ˜‰
Shhhhh, don’t tell any one !

Check out the Max Toy web store for more random customs posted and new product in the coming weeks !

Thanks for the support, it sounds hooky but without any orders, well I couldn’t keep making these toys, so thank you !
