This week we take a look at Jamungo, the creators of the Bud & Nade, Sqube, and Sqwert. Hear from Ferg and Van Beater about their ideas behind the toys they produce. More to come in later installments on:

Just a quick update on how the film's coming along. I recently got to interview Paul Budnitz, founder of Kidrobot, who produce vinyl toys, apparel and other lifestyle stuff. It was a real treat to get his perspective on things since they've been in the toy game for quite some time. I'm doing my final interview next week and after that it's a race to the finish line in Decemeber!

The final day of comic con was really chilled out and i managed to get the last of the interviews done which was really awesome. With a little time to spare, I managed to do some actual shopping and picked up a DIY Qee and a brown Steven The Bat by Bwana Spoons, which i've been dying to get for some time.

Sorry for the short entry, I'm pooped.
