The first official thing to post about is my 20% off sale. Unofficially it starts now. I'll actually set it up on the page soon but here and on Facebook I'm giving more time.
Basically everything on the site is 20% off except the Cobra Base and the Pit Set. This is a good time to stock up on a few if you have wanted to order.

Also, I'm on slow gear right now too. I had to go to the ER a few weeks ago and it turned out to be a kidney stone. Lat week I had a procedure done where they put a stent running from my left kidney to my bladder. There was apparently blockage. On the 17th I go back in to have the stone removed. I would hope I will be done with it all after that and get a decent recovery time. I'm still working through this as much as I can. I'm just a lot slower.

UPDATE about the sale. I'm going to hold off on it. Anyone wanting anything now can order from here and I'll honor the 20% off sale, but officially I'm going to put it up February 1st and run it all over February. By then I should be done with this kidney stone crap. I can then roll with everything the way I need to.
Just thought I'd post a heads up... Also I finished up the sculpt of an upcoming item I'm calling "The Commander". I think this is going to be something a lot of people will like equal to the Cobra Base. I'm aiming to launch it at the JoeCon this year since I should be able to be there.

Still dragging my feet on the sale. I'm looking to set that up fairly quick. I ended up speeding the process on the gliders. I kept getting so many emails asking. I got on Twitter and boosted the word about D&J Toys. I figured it was time to get a little more attention.
Should be finishing up the cut outs for the current bases this week and start building by next week. Still aiming to start shipping by middle of the month. Also now I'll be adding the gliders in the middle of the month. Those will be the Falcon and Cobra Viper set.
I'll have the sale up soon. If it works out it'll still happen the first of the month. Just depends on the bases.

Still will be doing a sale eventually. These dumb little delays keep setting me back on that. I would have been done with the Cobra Bases I had orders for before more came in and had the sale right in between if I didn't have that kidney stone issue. But more orders came in and I'll be holding off on that sale. I'm still quietly honoring the sale when I get orders for display backgrounds though. It's like a surprise sale for now that I won't announce on the page, Facebook, or Twitter.

Just an update...
Still pumping out the Cobra Bases. Still trying to get the gliders up and going but my supply company is dragging their feet with various things. I added the display backgrounds for the 12" figures.
I keep aiming to get caught up on the bases so I can get going on the pod stations. I'm getting better about getting them out though. The latest group of them are people that just ordered between Feb. 1st to now. Better than the way it was when I had a 6 month to a year backlog.Learning new ways to build has pushed the tome it takes down.

Oh, also one other thing. I started up a YouTube channel showing some video of building the base and things like that. I've been asked repeatedly and though I hate being on camera, I went ahead and tried it out. www.youtube.com/user/DnJToys

Figured I'd post here to say I will be at the con. I should have some backgrounds and such to sell. I'll probably have a Cobra Base to show but I doubt any to sell. I'll mostly be there to direct people to the website and give people a hands on look more than trying to push items on the spot.
