New Goodies for PAX East 2013

As one Behemoth team prepares for the most epic BattleBlock Theater Beta in the world, another team is working hard on all the plans for the upcoming Penny Arcade Expo in Boston.

For the past few months, the trade show team has been creating prototypes for a couple Behemoth plush designs, a set of game character keychains and even a doggy toy! The prototypes were then sent to the manufacturer we use and what returned to our office is what we think is a very fun set of new goodies for 2013.

A few of things we’ve added:

  • 1st EVER The Behemoth Chicken Plush
  • NEW BattleBlock Theater vinyl keychains
  • NEW Castle Crashers vinyl keychains
  • NEW Alien Hominid vinyl keychain
  • NEW Cat Guard Piggy Bank
  • NEW Cat Guard Dog Toy
  • AND MORE!

 

We’ll also be bringing some of the Necromancer stuff from the Kickstarter project we did last year. Of course, the arcade cabinets will be back in Boston again for some free play of Castle Crashers and BattleBlock Theater.

As the event gets closer, we’ll post more photos of what’s to come as well as reveal the PAX East 2013 Exclusive T-shirt design! So mark your calendars for March 22nd to March 24th, because The Behemoth will be invading the  Boston Convention & Exhibition Center at Booth 512 this year!

The Behemoth at the San Diego Asian Film Festival

This week BattleBlock Theater will be taking the show on the road to the San Diego Asian Film Festival (SDAFF). Yes, we’ll be taking the theater to another theater! Just a couple neighborhoods over from us, the film festival’s main site is at the Mission Valley UltraStar Cinema in the Hazard Center. You may see our arcade cabinet cruising down one of San Diego’s freeways as it makes its way over to the theater—let’s hope you don’t see the cabinet ON the freeway!

Yes, San Diegans, and anyone else making a trip to San Diego from November 2, 2012 – November 4, 2012, can join us in the theater lobby to play some BattleBlock Theater, check out some of the goodies we’re selling or just stop by to say hello! It’s free to get into the lobby to check out vendors, but movie tickets are required to get into the actual theaters. In addition to the BattleBlock Theater arcade cabinet, we’ll be bringing our Chonku Chonku machine (trade show only), a limited selection of our usual rad merchandise and maybe a special treat or two.

Our Booth Schedule:

Friday, November 2nd: 4PM-10PM
Saturday, November 3rd: 11AM-10PM
Sunday, November 4th: Noon-11PM

Side note: They’ve got some pretty awesome flicks this year! You could watch a movie based on a DS Game called Ace Attorney (YEAH! Scream out “objection!” all you want), sit through a psychological thriller/horror entitled I Am a Ghost, skate over to the theater for Sons of Animal Style, or check out any number of SDAFF’s 150+ films. So, no excuses! We’ll see you at the festival!
