We are saddened to learn of the passing of New Wave Toys co-founder Shilo Prychak whom’s amazing work was a fan favorite of many in the retro gaming community. Shilo joined us for our virtual con in 2021 and we are forever grateful for the time he spent with our community.

Despite lots of challenges, 2025 was a good year for me and I want to thank everyone that watched my videos or sent in consoles for repairs/mods.
