-Link- Marder interview in Action Figure Insider

Action Figure Insider interviews Larry Marder as the first in a series of “Catching Up With…” interviews, mostly about the stuff he was doing in his long absence from the Beanworld.

Some Beanworld stuff in there:

FREE Beanworld Action figures have always been a great parody and marketing tool and will continue to be part of my convention set-up. Mass manufactured Beanworld toys….both in plastic and in plush would be a fun thing to do. At this point it doesn’t seem so much question of “if” but of “when.”
