Handmade game plushies in the wild

I had to make a quick visit to Toronto yesterday, and no trip to t.dot would be complete without a visit to the ol' palace of geekery that is the Silver Snail.  And while the addition of so much gaming paraphenalia since my last visit both suprised and excited me, it was the handmade shy guy that really got my motor revving.  As you might be able to make out, he's flanked in the back by Bub and Bob.  Very cool stuff, and very worth the $25.99 asking price imo.

Etsy's one thing -- real life is another.  Why not get in touch with the Silver Snail and see if you can't buy me my Shy Guy for kwanza?

(Pardon the assy picture quality -- my real camera broke just before leaving the house, and this was the best my cell phone could do in a pinch.)

That's the second time this week I heard about people selling their handmade videogame stuff in comic book stores.

Jim, maybe I need to call Neutral Zone and ask them to sell my Etsy stuff
