Usagi 2020 Holiday Ornament
Danny Segura messaged me to let me know that he came across an Usagi ornament on stansakai.com, a collaboration with Chris Schweizer. I hadn't seen or heard anything about this, so thought I should share here before the rest of the internet finds out. It's hand-crafted and limited to only 100 numbered pieces. Available both signed and unsigned. I personally went with unsigned, but plan to see if I can pay at some point in the future to get it signed and quick sketched with an Usagi wearing a Santa hat, though maybe it's not quite the right material for something like that.
Get yours now while they last!

Danny also sent me a message about it. Also bought an unsigned one, due mainly to budget restraints (need to save some money to buy a bunch of stamps). Guess I need to start visiting Stan's web-store more frequently if he is going to slip cool things like this out. I didn't see any mention of these on either Stan or Chris' Facebook pages.

Thanks for the heads-up.
I knew they were planning something cool.

Looks like it got posted to Stan's Facebook about 2 hours ago, which would explain why.Gaffey wrote:SOLD OUT!

Re: Usagi 2020 Holiday Ornament
The speed at which they sold out was a complete surprise to us. Beth and our social media person set up the announcement. Beth saw that a few orders from the Dojo were coming in, then went to the post office. When she returned, they were all sold!
Yes, they are all gone. We just did a hundred thinking that we would have these for awhile. We did not even set any aside for our files or inventory. Next time we will order more. We plan on making these ornaments an annual thing--a new design every year.

Now we just need Chris to make one of his wooden playsets for Usagi World!
