Finally, BvH has returned to posting his original Kpop animated gifs. Some of you will remember his work from somewhere else. OG13’s Kpop Top 13 is the NEW EXCLUSIVE HOME to BvH’s work! He will post and make gifs that will thrill the Kpop world and fans. It doesn’t matter if you are a VIP or a Black Jack, all will be pleased with his work. Get lost in the pictures and laugh at his witty remarks. We have all missed BvH, but he has returned in a big way giving us his special gif.

We have been granted permission to debut the image of one of my most anticipated action figures of 2013 – Catwoman from their 1966 Classic TV Series Batman™ action figure line!
This is the first-ever 6” scale Julie Newmar Catwoman, and the Design Team tells us it was a thrill to finally be able to capture this iconic rendition of the character in plastic!

On April 13, 2013, OG13 sponsored Hole 13 at a Central California School’s Golf Tournament. Caruthers High School, a Small division 5 school in the Central Valley, raised between $9500 and $10000 to full fund the 2013-2014 athletics season for ALL of their teams and be able to install a gameroom. We here at OG13 were proud to help keep kids off the streets by helping Caruthers High with their sports programs. As one of our Founders Darkwise so beautifully put it, “It helps kids. It helps Tofu. It help OG13. I like it.”

As we continue forward with growth and progress in our second year, we find ourselves more and more in need of quality help with managing the site and content here at OG13. The more users, the more threads, and the more posts that we process, the more hands we need with handling administrative duties on both the site, and the front page. With that said…
Please welcome PitViper and Jericho Noleski to the OG13 family of staffers. Both men are long time members of the collecting community, and their freaking outstanding taste in music has nothing to do with why they have been promoted (yes, it does, it means everything!).
These two bring an extensive resume of toy fare, comics, music, and all kinds of media lore. They are both stand-up guys, who have done so much to help the site grow and keep our members happy (yes, I see the double entendre).
It took Flint and I all of 20 seconds to make this decision.
Welcome, brothers!

Results from the voting are in and icecreamman’s She-Ra Princess of Power takes 1st Place for the 2nd Quarter and will be participating in the Mt. Rushmore Customs Legends Contest at the end of the year. A beautiful design and excellent work on the hair and outfit which are often hard to create on female super heroes. Congrats icecreamman!
2nd Place went to The Syndicate Customs member Subway with is his camo style Joe. A real winner with Retaliation still fresh on the movie screen. Joe will now be available to participate in the Black Hills Bystander Contest at the end of the year.
And a tie for 3rd place between Geared Creations Fallout NCR Ranger and Dark Perceptor with Big Daddy. Both top notch customs and worthy of a place at the top. Both the Ranger and Big Daddy will be eligible for the Black Hills Bystander Contest at the end of the year.

OG13‘s art director, graphic designer, and artist extraordinaire, Lantern_Lad, shows off his customizing skills with a beautiful repaint of the world’s favourite turtles.
This was something I did for the fun of it. I love the new TMNT figures, but the lack of paint apps disappointed me. I saw it as an opportunity to do some custom detailing! Tell me what you think (did I go too far?)!

r a week of frustration at YG for continually blocking the youtube version of the Top 13, the NORMAL version of OG13’s Top 13 is back. While the YouTube version is up in the air Psy, the likely cause of YG’s protectiveness, released the follow up to his mega hit Gangnam Style, Gentleman. Once again the video is funny, the song is catchy and for the first time in his career Psy finds himself on OG13’s Top 13! How will he do when he is up again reigning Queens of the Top 13 Rania or those Dolls of 9 Muses and the boys of Infinite? And with Label mates G Dragon and 2NE1 coming out with new songs soon… could this be the summer of YG? Click HERE to view our Top 13!

In 1979, prototypes for 3 ¾” action figures for the ALIEN film were developed but never manufactured. Through our network of industry and collector contacts, Super7 has unearthed reference material and original 34-year-old prototypes and will now make these “lost toys” a reality.

From the desk of PitViper:
PitViper Presents: Spotlight & Showcase
Welcome to a new thread where I will be doing a Q&A with selected brothers to talk about a specific item or part of their collection. During Joecon, I had purchased the Valvor vs Venom “Crimson Brigade”. While in my room on Saturday night, Krisk and Mrs. Krisk stopped in and he showed me a few pics of his epic Crimson collection on his phone. With that, the seed was planted and I knew I wanted to start with him.
So without further ado, let’s Krisk some ass!!
