Prolly, You guys remember him right? He’s the dude who occasionally rarely does metal reviews here on the Bloglin when not doing blog spins. Well he has a gallery up on his site with his shots from the Мишка LA opening reception.

Some of John’s shots focus much more on a few of the design details in the shop ratherthan the party itself. For instance, up above is the chandelier hanging overhead in the LA store. Like our chandelier over at 350 Broadway, this one was designed by Adam Wallacavage and is full of eyeballs and tentacles keeping with the Cthulu theme.

Also like NY, LA has loads of toys that we’ve collected and hoarded over the years. It’s not only mesmerizing, it’s just downright creepy if you ask me! But this is how we feel most at home… surrounded by lots and lots of toys.

There’s a nice assortment of vintage and modern Kaiju amongst loads of vintage western toys. While this makes nice eye candy for most patrons, I’m sure some of you Toy Fiends will see one, two or more things to salivate over!

Another nice touch is this gigantic painting by Skinner that hangs just over the cut & sew rack on the right wall as you enter the shop. I love this thing… it fits so perfectly not only with the shop’s decor but with our brand in general.

If you’re in Los Angeles drop by the shop and see all of this for yourself and pick up a few goodies, like the exclusive LA tees we did!
