Mike Puzzo is a figure painter for the world's leading creator and global distributor of top licensed consumer toys: the National Entertainment Collectibles Association, also known as NECA Toys. Known for largely having the responsibility of painting most of the TMNT-related toys, but he can bring life out of any prototype you put in front of him, as he's been responsible for painting some of my favorite horror paint applications to date. I learned a wealth of information about the toy manufacturing world, from the inception of ideas, to the creation of toys, all the way through product distribution, daily backend operations and more importantly how Mike stumbled upon this, at the time, unknown talent of his. This was a fun episode, and it was a pleasure to sit down with Mike and store away some more information in this big noggin of mine!
