Say you go to a convention be it sci-fi, comic book, or just general pop culture you always seem to find unique vendors there on the vendor’s floor area. how you may say phone cases, comic books, toys, or even action figures.
but I guarantee you you’ve seen nothing like the unique sculptures from Odd Duck Collectibles, these unique pieces mostly deal with penguins, dragons, or some weird multi-universe character mashups that include Penguins or dragons.
At FanExpo Dallas 2023, I caught up with these unique folks at Fan Expo Dallas at The Odd Duck Collectibles Booth and got to interview Alicia Passanisi and got a feel for the charm, love, and fun she puts into projects. Also, the support and love she gets from her partner in this crazy enterprise her husband Joe Passanisi.
Be advised the video was edited due to distractions during an active convention, including a patron crossing through the interview area during the recording.
The best way to learn more about these fine folk’s philosophy of fun is to gaze upon these fine figures :
When not showing their impressively odd wears at a con the Passanisi’s can be found at the Texas Renaissance Festival sharing their love for the whimsical and unique. Alicia is working on children’s books and other artistic ventures and has a YouTube channel which can be found here: https://youtube.com/@aliciapassanisi13
