Spotlight Splash (primary)

It’s not often the OG13 staff get Front Paged, let alone the Founders. But something this dark CAN NOT go unheralded. Did you know that our co-founder darkwise has writted and published his own novel, Solitude? Yeah he did, and as I said, it’s pretty freakin’ dark. In fact, I will go on record saying that it is the darkest thing I have ever read. Do yourself a favor, hit the link below and check out the first two chapters posted here at the OG13… it’s guaranteed* not to dissapoint.

*Not an actual guarantee, seriously. This Front Page is in no way endorsed by darkwise. In fact, don’t be surprised if he deletes it.

EXCLUSIVE: OG13 Trooper Figure (for Charity)

Charities

Recently, the senior staff members of OG13 found out that a couple of fellow members of OG13 were recovering from some life altering events and we wanted to come up with a way to bring the whole community together to share support for these members (and the community) in general. In addition to the custom auctions, and the two charity raffles, we decided on making an official OG13 Custom Trooper and sell a limited number of these figures to raise money to help ease the burdens our friends have suffered. We hope to continue this venture on a yearly basis, and this year it is all about our members, because without your support, we would never be where we are today! Yo G13!

As of 7/23, we have all 50 of the figures made, but only 6 of the cards/bubbles have been sent. We are waiting on mocJoes to complete the order of the cards.

Pre-orders have been fast and furious, so we have around 24 of the 50 left for sale.

  • 100% of the profits go to 2 OGers in need.
  • We will reveal both, as well as the exact amount of money raised/sent, at the end of this project.
  • We will provide a full list of sponsors, contributors, and participants.
  • The exclusives will be shipped AS the cards are received by mocJOES (theProcess). If you order, expect a wait as the cards are manufactured. If you cannot wait, or are the type to complain about the wait, then true charity might not be your reason for ordering!
  • All figures will be hand numbered, 1/50, 12/50, etc.

Here are ACTUAL shots of the exclusive figure and packaging:

And here is a huge thank you to all that participated in the making of this figure, and to all that donated their own figures, time, talent, money, and patience, to make this happen. If we missed anyone (and probably did), please let us know!

  • Lowlight27
  • TheVP
  • Jhomar Soriano/ScruffyRonin
  • Mayhem Customs
  • Taterbot Customs
  • Kokomo Toys

On April 13, 2013, OG13 sponsored Hole 13 at a Central California School’s Golf Tournament.  Caruthers High School, a Small division 5 school in the Central Valley, raised between $9500 and $10000 to full fund the 2013-2014 athletics season for ALL of their teams and be able to install a gameroom. We here at OG13 were proud to help keep kids off the streets by helping Caruthers High with their sports programs. As one of our Founders Darkwise so beautifully put it, “It helps kids. It helps Tofu. It help OG13. I like it.”
