Release of The Melty Misfits Series 2 by Buff Monster @ PIQ, Grand Central Station

"Yes, the time has come to celebrate the release of the Second Series of The Melty Misfits! If you’re in the NYC area, come by PIQ at Grand Central Station from 3-6pm this Saturday. We’ll have the brand new cards along with some other goodies! We did this nice window display that’ll be up for 6 weeks.

PIQ and their website, piqproducts.com, will be the only place to get the new cards for the next two weeks. After that, I’ll have some on my site, and you can find ‘em at certain retailers." -Buff Monster (via e-newsletter)

More about The Melty Misfits: "New York based artist Buff Monster has created a second series of his very popular trading cards/stickers called The Melty Misfits. It’s a series of ice cream characters in funny situations; an homage to Garbage Pail Kids cards from the 80’s. The cards are offset printed using custom-inks on custom-made sticker stock, kiss-cut and packaged in vintage-style wax wrappers. Series 2 features 41 new characters, all hand-painted using acrylic and airbrush on watercolor paper. Each pack of cards retails for $5 and could contain a golden ticket, original sketch cards, signed cards, foil cards, lenticulars, variants and errors. Buff Monster will be signing the new cards, as well as a variety of items including toys, prints and uncut sheets of cards. The event takes place on Saturday, September 20th, 3-6pm at PIQ’s NYC store in Grand Central Terminal (Shuttle passage, 89 E. 42nd St., New York, NY 10017)."
