BOGIES IN SOUTH AMERICA
Just wanted to share some excellent Bogies World Slop artwork with ya'll. Creator Mark G has produced this artwork for a South American crisp packet promotion that will be taking place later on this year... I believe that you can collect free stickers available in packets of Botanis. Not sure what Botanis taste like, but I'm sure they taste nicer than Bogies? I guess we'll have to wait and see...

BTB Modding Competition Ends This Month.
Tick, tock, tick, tock.....
Time is running out to take part in our BTB modders competition. So if you have a burning mod waiting to be unleashed on the world you better get your skates on.
As you should all be aware by now, this year’s twin-set theme is Bears of the World. We’re really excited about exploring this theme for 2010! We think that we can have loads of fun having a pop at the French, Germans, Americans hehe! Although us Brits probably have the worst reputation of all…
We want YOU creative types to come up with your very own exciting new modded BOTW twin-set.
If you don’t know what a mod is, it is a BTB figurine that has been ‘modified’ to look like a brand new character. Check out the modder section on our forum.
I’m not a modder myself, but if you fancy a crack and need any tips or advice, we have loads of modders on the forum who are always happy to help. Also, you could check out this ace blog that OddCo’s Nigel posted ages ago.
The overall winner of this competition will have their mod made into a real Bad Taste Bear twin-set which will be launched in Aug 2010!
This is a BTB club members only competition. Entries must be photographed and posted on the BTB forum before the end of March as we will start pre-production from the 1st week in April!!!
Competition will of course be judged by myself (Paul) and Peter. No bribes
