Aloooooha!

I'm very pleased to announce that Forbidden Island will be hosting the first ever release party for one of NOTCHs mugs, and what a doozy it is:

Meet Roberto Loco!

You may remember the prototype from this thread: http://www.tikicentral.com/viewtopic.php?topic=22800&forum=18

It's NOTCHs inspired take on Tiki Bob, and the finished product is quite stunning. I'm sure he'll post a picture to this thread. The Roberto Loco will be offered in two editions:

  1. "Roberto Loco de La Isla Prohibida": a VERY limited edition glaze with additional detail and custom graphics unique to FI and only available here.

  2. Roberto Loco: the regular limited edition in a glossy glaze. This one will be subject to availability provided he is able to fire enough of them in time. But he might finish them all and sell them all at FI, so you'd better head on over!

(you can see a sneak preview of the first artist proof behind the bar at FI)

The mug goes on sale at 2pm, and usual FI sidewalk rules apply.

See all you MWs soon!

Mahalo!

HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!! This is why Nacho is my buddy... that is frickin' heeeelarious, my friend!!

Ahright, now I am concerned. Will I come home one day to find a hairline crack in my Bumatay just over a scuffle for shelf space with Roberto?

Just keep him in Solitary Confinement. A parolee like that will be used it. :wink:

By the by, looks like I may not make the line Sunday Morning, but I'll bring home-baked snacks for me homies...

It turns out NOTCH will give an artist's proof to almost anyone...

So who in line wants SCONES?!!

The Scone Patrol (Your trusted leader, Haole'akamai, and her ever-faithful sidekick, TofuJoe) are on the way, to up your Scone-atude and revive you weary line-waiters with sustenance.

Scone Patrol awWAAAAAAAAAAAY!

OMG those scones were GOOD! Add that to the list of the many talents of Thayer. Thank you!

Oh, and Notch, we LOVE the mug. :) :)

Nice seeing everyone yesterday. Those of you in the know will be glad to know we ended up in Santa Cruz instead of Monterey. Yey! :D
