I don’t usually post press releases, but this one’s for a good cause.
Comic book and toy artists unite to support Power-Con / ThunderCon and the CAAF
Power-Con / ThunderCon will be working with The Big Toy Auction to host an auction during the show’s after-hours fan and talent mixer on Saturday, September 24, 2011. Half of all proceeds will be donated to the Children Affected By AIDS Foundation.
The after-hours fan and talent mixer is open to the general public. Bids can be placed by registered in-house participants at the auction beginning at 10:00pm PST in the Woods Rooms at the Four Points by Sheraton LAX. There will be a number of floor-bidding-only items, so we invite everyone to come out for a night of fun!
If you can’t make it to the auction, you can still bid online for many of the items at:
http://www.TheBigToyAuction.com/Power.html The online gallery will be continually updated with what is available for auction. Online bidders can register ahead of time at:
https://www.proxibid.com/asp/CreateBidder1.asp Registration is free and any information required at sign-up is for verification purposes.
Contributing artists include Ed McGuinness, Tim Seeley, Tony Washington, Tone Rodriguez, Kevin Sharpe, and more! If you are an artist or know one that would like to contribute a piece to the auction, please e-mail info@thepower-con.com.

I would just like to say that The Big Toy Auction is awesome. Christopher Noon is a great guy. He recently contacted me to submit a custom action figure for their charity auction for disaster relief. For those interested, this is the custom I submitted to him:

I was proud to be a part of it, and even prouder that I was personally asked to be a part of it. It's a great thing he does so anyone who loves toys (presumably everybody looking at this site) please check out the site for The Big Toy Auction and bid. They have so many great toys donated to them, vintage, new, and even customs.
