Star Wars fans who purchase the Stormtrooper Super Shogun during Celebration V will receive a free vintage Kenner action figure sealed on its original blister card.
Characters selected at random, and the offer is valid only while supply of figures lasts.

We will have copies available of the long out-of-print SUPER7 MAGAZINE #15, with an extensive cover story and photo essay on rare, vintage Japanese Star Wars toys!   If you can't own the Takara die-cast metal Darth Vader, at least you can add photos of him to your collection.

SUPER7 is known for our original TOYS and T-SHIRTS, and we will have both in abundance at the show, including the always in demand MONSTERS shirt (which was featured on BIG BANG THEORY).


Lastly, we will be distributing free stickers to anyone who becomes conscripts in our SUPER SHOGUN SQUADRON!

New Goods from Gargamel and Friends

Having slayed at the San Diego Comic-Con with an amazing assortment of one-of-a-kind custom painted kaiju, Gargamel takes a step back to their roots, with a new offering of a classicly presented zokki creature, a deftly sculpted collaboration, and a hand-picked gem from a friend and frequent collaborator.

The translucent yellow mini Walking Hedoran, Pocket S-Taiin, and Buta No Hana Matango will be available Saturday, August 7, 11am Pacific.

SDCC AFTERMATH!

Image001


SAN DIEGO COMIC CON was insane, crazy, busy, hectic....but most of all, it was an absolute BLAST!    It was great to be able to show off our TROOPER to over 125,000 people, and also to induct a ton of those fans as official members of the SUPER SHOGUN SQUADRON!   Armband stickers were spotted all over the convention floor.

As for the toy itself, it was an absolute sellout at the convention!  We returned to our secret headquarters in San Francisco without a single STORMTROOPER in our hands.     If you missed out at the show, don't despair, as we still have the toy available online (just click over to http://super7store.com/super7-products/stormtrooper.html ).

So much went on at the show that it is impossible to try to recap it all, from shooting IRON MAN director Jon Favreau with the Rocket Punch, to being filmed for Morgan Spurlock's new documentary, to having the GOLDEN GATE GARRISON of the 501st LEGION assembled at our booth....it was non-stop STAR WARS action all week!

Kirkland took some great photos, but nothing will top this SDCC video shot at and around the SUPER7 booth!   Don't get caught up in all of the ridiculous humor at the expense of the booth babes or you will miss the ROCKET PUNCH in action!
