Come to Forbidden Planet NYC's Craniacs signing 9/21/24 at 5pm!

Forbidden Planet NYC is excited to announce the return of the Craniacs crew for an in-store celebration and signing of Series 1. Join us on Saturday September 21st from 5 to 7PM and meet the crazy creators behind the all new trading card series Craniacs! On hand will be artist Joe Simko and creator Ira Friedman, two legends in the non-sports card industry known for years of work with everyone’s favorite go-to gross out collectibles the Garbage Pail Kids.

We had such a blast when they were here for Series 0 that we wanted to make sure to keep the party going and ensure Forbidden Planet would be the place to launch the new series! The Craniacs world has been growing fast with this all new expanded series 1 and an animated show in development with Titmouse, but it’s still not too late to get in on the ground floor let the world know you’re a Craniac Maniac. This time we will have Blaster Boxes, Hobby Boxes and single Packs on hand for your purchasing pleasure!

But wait, that’s not all! Everyone who purchases any Craniacs products at the event will have the chance to win a limited edition autographed Craniacs Skateboard. That’s right! Any purchase, even just a single pack gets you the opportunity to walk out of here with this collectable bad boy! The winner will be chosen at random at the end of the event, so don’t be late!

More about Craniacs:

The CRANIACS back story revolves around two civilizations – one from ancient times and the other in the far future. Due to intergalactic circumstances beyond their control, these divergent societies strive to co‐exist…though not without considerable challenges, robust competitions, and humorous, action‐adventure hijinks.”
