Congratulations to Michael from the Alpha Alternative School in Toronto, who out bid all his classmates at the school's silent auction fundraiser and won himself a Colin monster and a tour of the Monster Factory.

We had a great time showing Michael and his family and his good buddy Luca, all the ins and outs of monster making, from concept drawings, to pattern drafting, to sewing and finally stuffing. We even gave them a sneak peek at all the new products lines we are currently working on in the studio.

You can see a couple of those 'new products' in the above photo. Hint, Michael and Luca are wearing them on their heads!
