This week I'm going to give you a play-by-play, behind-the-scenes story on the design and production of the Celebration Anaheim 2022 Rancor patch!
Back in 2020 I put a ton of time into designing a Celebration patch. I think it turned out great. Might even use ...

I'm thrilled to present to the world CreatureCantina.com's own Celebration Anaheim-exclusive swag patch set!!
Inspired by events that were super timely when I drew and ordered them, this set features Greedo and Walrusman engaged in some knee-slapping (or rather face-slapping) hijinks! To get this set, simply track down me and Darth Danno. You guys all know what I look like, so here's a photo of Danno to help you identify him.
So I hope to see you in Anaheim. In the meantime, KEEP MY SITE'S NAME OUT OF YOUR %&$#ING MOUTH!!!

Presenting the full set of Wax Pack patches!
And that's all of them. We didn't do a sponsor-exclusive or chase patch, because if I didn't have the same number of each color my OCD would go nuts.
Here's a few more of the pencil sketches I did to produce the designs:
Now 15 patches is a tough set to chase down! So to help you out, I put together this handy-dandy checklist, which each of the sponsors will have to give away. Inspired by... aw heck, I don't have to tell you what this was inspired by.
Good luck tracking us all down at Celebration Anaheim!!

Celebration attendees have begun revealing some swag, and you're going to be seeing some pretty awesome stuff that I had a hand in creating.
Yesterday Eric Franks shared the first photo from a 15-patch set that I designed. They are inspired by the Vintage Topps wax ...

Right now I have 3 more Droids customs lined up:
I still need to track down a ton of TIE Pilots for my run. I'm hoping I can ...

We are six weeks away from Celebration Anaheim 2022, and I'm excited to share that CreatureCantina will be in attendance in an official capacity!
I'm looking forward to providing the kind of in-depth coverage only CreatureCantina provides! I'll definitely be doing a Top 10 Swag article again, so if you got something good be sure to track me down. I plan to post a bunch of photos on Instagram. I suppose I should create an official CreatureCantina Instagram account rather than using my personal one. The big question though... should I set up a CreatureCantina TikTok? Is the world prepared??
Got anything in particular you want CreatureCantina to look into at Celebration? LMK!!

To call my latest Droids custom sale a success would be an understatement. One minute, 44 seconds. That's all the time it took to sell out completely. That's by far the fastest ever.
And it gets even wilder. Check out the timestamps on these emails:
Wed, 6 Apr 2022 06:31:44 -0700 (PDT) (Final winner)

Two people sent their orders at the exact same second, and only one of them ended up getting a Biker. And there was another runner-up one second after that. I ended up sending out 8 "sorry they're sold out" replies to people who sent in their orders before I could update the article headline.
I feel bad that so many people who wanted these missed out. One of the runners-up put a $500 bounty on one (which was successful). Insane.
This project will stick with me for a while... albeit unintentionally. See, I left my extra cast coins sitting on my coffee table (where I assemble the figures), and the plastic reacted to the finish on the table. The results are unfortunate...
I've been meaning to refinish that table for many years, after the rubber feet of a Master Replicas saber display case did the same thing, but just can't seem to get around to it. So that mark's gonna be there a while.
Next up I'll be doing my Droids rendition of THE SENATE himself! That'll be sometime over the summer. I got some things to get ready for in May...

I know everyone is upset at how they brought Palpatine back in "TROS", with very little explanation, and are blaming Rian Johnson for killing off Snoke in "Episode VIII" as it was believed he was supposed to be the "big bad" of the sequel trilogy. But the more I've thought about it, the more I'm come to realize a startling fact...
Now stay with me here, because I know this is going to blow everyone's minds. Are you ready? Because here it is...
Palpatine has never appeared in a single Star Wars movie.
I know that right about now all our loyal readers are calling for me to resign from the Star Wars fandom and are asking if I've ever actually sat down and watched a single "SW" film. Yes, I have! That is why I'm able to make this claim. Now think about this, when we first see him in the Prequel Trilogy, then again in Episodes V & VI, he's a fully grown man! So, we've seen Palpadult multiple times, but have never seen Palpateen.
I'll go to my room now.
