As always, it was a great turn out, and a terrific experience! A few highlights that I can currently recall. A child saw my battle scene and said, “I love this!” The mother replied with a perplexed tone, “you do?” The child responded with an astounding “yes!"🤣
I feel I may have scarred a few attendees, both parents and kids. I signed a few autographs and caught up with my regulars I see at Indy. Another thing I can recall on Saturday was a mother and her 2 kids stared at my display and their eyes glazed over with bewliderment. After 10 minutes or so of utter disbelief they walked away and about 20 minutes later they came back. The mother exclaimed, “Every other display we kept going to the boys kept saying I want to go back to the squ1ddos display, over and over.” I felt quite special after hearing that, so I gave them 2 tokens I created for the displays I liked. Their eyes lit up sooo wide and she greatly appreciated the gesture. As I can recall more I will comment.

Oh wow, those are nice pieces. And great to see you inspired the next generation as well!

Thank ya and yeah, those kids were amazed and scared of my builds at the same time. We'll see what the next builds I create are... I am starting to accrue a hefty backlog though of games I need to play though.
