Bored Inc. at SDCC

As many of you know, my mom and I have been exhibiting at San Diego Comic Con for over ten years! This year, Bored Inc. still has a booth, but things are a little different. Since I am nearly 9 months pregnant (!!!) our friends at Hot Properties are taking care of our booth this year. In addition to our Bored Inc. merchandise, they'll have their own awesome officially licensed goods from brands like Minions, Adventure Time, Simpsons, The Regular Show, and more!

And we will still have Comic Con Exclusives- our Poo-Bacca handmade plush is limited to 50 pieces total, 1 per person, 10 pieces released per day, $18 each. We also have four 5x7 giclee print designs- PooBacca, Minion Poo, Call of Doodie and Spidey Poo! $8 each, editions of only 15 pieces, first come first serve.

I'm sad not to be attending and catching up with all our wonderful customers and fans. I hope everyone has a great Comic Con! Come by and check out our exclusives and say hi to our Hot Properties friends at Booth #609!

Bored Inc. at SDCC 2014

I am back home from my annual Comic Con adventure! This is our ninth year exhibiting, and there's nothing better than seeing the same smiling faces return to our booth year after year. The support of our fans is truly overwhelming, and both my mom and I are so thankful for everyone who comes out to see us! Thank you for another great year!

SDCC Preview Night: An evening with 64 Colors' Gumdrop

Well, the first night of SDCC has come to an end, and it was awesome! The booth setup was tiring, so I didn't make it to the booth tonight, but my sister snagged me a 64 Colors Gumdrop from the Rotofugi booth, and then we all went to dinner. Gumdrop loved the spaghetti, but he drank a little too much, so we called it a night early and tucked ourselves into bed.

See you tomorrow, Comic Con!
