 The CSF Catalogue!Since October of 2002 I have been making available to the public limited quantities of my TF related resin castings. Here's a list of everything I've made and sold (or given away) since then. Nothing here is currently for sale, this list is just for me to keep track of all this stuff. The CSF number designation system is based on production order, and I didn't start putting CSF numbers on the packages until I got to CSF-03.

Single packed items
CSF-01 Skywarp Tetrajet
- Number Produced: 4
- Release Date: 12 Oct '02
- Event: International Transformers Meetup Day-Tucson, Az
- Details: I tried to get four people together for Tucson Arizona's first Meetup.com event, but nobody showed up! I made four resin Skywarps and was going to give them away, but since I was the only one who showed, I kept them. Later after I posted a review of the non-event on Alt.Toys.Transformers.Classic.Moderated, Raksha expressed interest in my Skywarps so I gave her one. She's technically the first person I ever gave any of my own creations to.

CSF-02 Sunstorm Tetrajet
- Number Produced: 10
- Release Date: July '03
- Event: 2003 Autocon Mailing List WTF!?! Convention Exclusive #1
- Details: I gave nine of these away (along with the CSF-102 giftset) to fellow members of Autocon, the mailing list I've been a part of since March '02. I did the giveaway at the 1st OTFCC in Chicago, Ill. I also auctioned one Sunstorm before OTFCC on eBay, and it only went for $4.25! I never made one for myself. I just haven't gotten around to it.

- Number Produced: 20
- Release Date: March '04
- Event: Scrambledcity.com Poetry Contest Giveaway
- Details: Scrounge was the first ever HoC scaled figure I made, and I gave five of them away as contest prizes on my site. I wasn't happy with the rest so I kept them and they litter my computer desk workspace.
|
- Number Produced: 20 (sort of-only 5 got painted)
- Release Date: March '04
- Event: Scrambledcity.com Poetry Contest Grand Prize
- Details: I made this figure for Simon Furman and Andrew Wildman. I gave each of them one at the UK TF convention Auto Assembly held in Birmingham, England in May of 2004. Simon thought it was great and he told me he'd keep it on his desk, which made me happy beyond my wildest dreams. Since the molds were good for more than 2 castings, I went ahead and made some extras. Of the other three I painted, I kept one, one was the grand prize in my site's poetry contest, I ebay'ed the other, and a few unpainted ones got disposed of by other nefarious means.

- Number Produced: 10
- Release Date: May '04
- Event: 2004 Autocon Mailing List WTF!?! Convention Exclusive #1
- Details: The world's worst convention exclusive tradition continues with Micro-Master Wheelie! Unable to stand, unable to roll, and with no articulation beyond his transform, Micro-Master Wheelie is easily my greatest creation! Did I mention his paint job was done with sharpie markers?

- Number Produced: 2
- Release Date: May '04
- Event: 2004 Autocon Mailing List WTF!?! Convention Exclusive #2 (Euro only)
- Details: Originally intended as part of a diorama I entered in an art contest, G2 Megatron is my favorite of all my CSF figures. I completed two of them and traded one away to a fellow Autoconner at Auto Assembly 2004, a UK TF convention held in Birmingham, England. So that makes this piece a WTF!?! Euro exclusive!

- Number Produced: 3
- Release Date: May '04
- Event: Auto Assembly 2004 art contest diorama
- Details: What a travesty it is that the great character Jhiaxus got his name slapped on a Beast Machines deluxe Jetstorm repaint. He deserves better! So I tackled the task of sculpting a figure that was a worthy tribute to the greatest of Cybertronians. Another project done for my trip to Auto Assembly 2004, Jhiaxus was half of a small diorama I made for the art contest. He's the largest of all the CSF figures I've made so far and I am extremely pleased with how he came out.

- Number Produced: 14
- Release Date: June '04
- Event: 2004 Autocon Mailing List WTF!?! Convention Exclusive #2 (US only)
- Details: Well they can't all be winners I guess. This was another one of those projects that was born when I only had a little bit of resin casting material left and no specific idea what to do with it. I couldn't just let my rubber and resin go to waste, but on the other hand there wasn't enough of it to do anything really good. So I thought it would be funny to do a crappy version of the legendary Last Autobot. At Botcon '04 and I sold a whopping four of 'em to a few unlucky friends of mine who had nothing better to do with their 5 bucks.

Giftsets, multi-packs, etc.
CSF-101 Skywarp, Starscream, and Thundercracker Tetrajet Set
- Number Produced: 3
- Release Date: June '03
- Event: 1st attempt at selling my own creations
- Details: When I first started making resin tetrajets, I took a chance and tried to sell sets of Skywarp, Starscream, and Thundercracker. I got three customers, but one of the guys didn't respond to emails so I kept the third set. People who have emailed me with feedback often remark that the blue paint I used for Thundercracker was too dark, and he was hard to tell apart from Skywarp. I guess they're right, but I did try to differentiate them. If you look hard enough, you can see how I used red paint for Thundercracker's highlights and purple for Skywarp's.

CSF-102 "Shuttle Chodes" Clear Decoy Giftset
- Number Produced: 11
- Release Date: July '03
- Event: 2003 Autocon Mailing List WTF!?! Convention Exclusive #2
- Details: Shuttle Chodes is a set of four decoys I made from clear resin. I made exact copies of the decoys of Brawn, Prowl, Ironhide, and Ratchet, and packaged them in a construction paper shuttle. The idea is that these are the ghosts of the Autobots that the Decepticons killed in the shuttle massacre scene from the movie. This was the second giveaway item I made for members of the mailing list Autocon at OTFCC '03. I made enough for the Autocon guys, plus I entered one in the art contest. This set rules because where else can you get a "Ghost of Brawn" figure?
