Steampunk and its growing following

[Taffy Saltwater]

Airship Isabella was here at ComicPalooza last year & a lot of them came to pay homage to Phil.  They are quite amazing.

Sounds like a good time was had by all.  And by the way ... *jealous!*

They truly ARE amazing... and they have make better toys than BATMAN!!!   


You SHOULD be jealous, because we had an incredible time... and you totally could have been here!!!    There were even people who had their dogs there!!!  IN the hotel!

Had a blast at Scarby for Steampunk Invasion on Sat!  They even consented to let us walk in the parade.  (Upon reflection of my sore feet, that may have been punishment.)    Posted some pics of us on FB:

Mieljolie, the pictures are terrific & y'all look wonderful.  I am so glad to see the faire experience opening up to different interests and welcoming Steamers as were Pirates, Fairies, Magickal Folke and other sundry non-ren types.

Thanks, Taffy.  We were impressed at the positive response we got.  We were stopped by lots of folk who expressed an interest in creating their own SP character.  Of course Samedi had to lecture everyone we met on making their own gadgets and not buying everything from ebay.    He had so much fun harassing kids with his weapons, too.  It was really fun.

Oh, now THAT's outstanding!!!  How cool that some of the major Faires are recognizing the genre, and welcoming it this way! 

Of course, I know a few people will just be thoroughly ticked off by it...    Oh well, not everyone likes everything, and that's ok. 

Now I'm REALLY excited to see the pics!!!

listed on ebay:  Custom SteamPunk Iron Man Marvel Legends or Universe - Item number:   120712891203

This figure set is of Tony Stark and his Iron Man suit.  The suit runs on steam power, fueled by the combustion chamber in the chest.  Tony Stark hand forged this suit from Copper, Steel and Brass held together by countless rivits and weld seams.

Anthony comes with custom made hammer and goggles, and his tool belt.  Goggles are removable and can be worn on his head, placed over eyes or removed from the figure entirly.  The hammer can be held or placed in his belt.  Tony stands 4 inches tall.  The Iron Man Suit is fully articulated, it boasts 37 points of articulation:  Ball joint shoulders, swivel bicep, hinge elbow, ball jointed wrists, and each finger and thumb is double articulated, ball jointed waist, swivel and cross hinge hips, knee joints and ankle joints, and lastly ball jointed head.  He can be posed in many positions.  The Iron Man suit is large, standing at 11-12 inches high.  He works in either the Marvel Universe world with the included Tony Stark, or Marvel Legends line.

The Iron man suit also has a light feature for the chest cavity that flickers.  There is a switch inside, there is a rear hatch that opens and the light can be turned on from within.  Check out the video on my blog to see the light effect and more pics:  packratstudios.blogspot.com/
