Huck Gee: Unfortunate Sun

Things have been hectic for the past couple of weeks, and there have been all sorts of rumblings,happenings and goings on. It’s no secret that last week was also a busy week for Huck Gee.

The Kidrobot release of the ‘Insane’ Dunny literally sold out in a matter of seconds- hats off to those of you with cat-like reflexes in your ‘add item to cart/checkout’ finger, you’re all HARDCORE! For those of you that weren’t so lucky, BUMMER!!! We know the pain of missing out all too well.

A few weeks back (17/10/08) Huck released the Red Hand Gang, raku print ‘Sunrise’, another gold dust item- vanished in under a minute! The next in the Gold Life series, ‘Moonrise Rooftops’ was released on Halloween and in an instant, was gone. We were desperate to get our hands on those prints and with only 80 copies of each, we knew we needed to have a plan of action. So we synchronized our watches, we phoned and texted a count down every hour for 72 hrs leading up to the releases. These were to be golden moments in the legacy of S&J, we wanted the walls of our humble little home to proudly boast this pair of prints for your benefit, as much as our own.

Unfortunately, on the day we weren’t so lucky. ‘Sunrise’ came and went without us, and I was heartbroken.

Fear not, dear friend it isn’t all bad. We’re not so easily dashed and we were determined to seize our next golden opportunity- so with military tactics, we managed to get our hands on ‘Moonrise Rooftops’! The silver lining…

We feel fortunate to have it and promise it will take pride of place in the shop, for all to see. So make sure to have a nose around and look for it when you stop in, or just say ‘Hello’ and ask, it will probably be right under your nose!

Until next time- be good

S&J xx
