Andrew Albertson 6 Posted February 6, 2013 Report Share Posted February 6, 2013 Just got the new 2013 GenFoam catalog today. 3 new items and lots of new color schemes. It gives hope to future seasons. I may do a group buy this year again. I will be looking for a few interested people looking to spend $500+ea on full cartons. I'm not interested in people that only want 1 or 2 items. Only full cases and big spenders. Its too complicated to get 800 ppl wanting 1 thing. My last group buy was with 4 other ppl and went off perfectly. More details to come, Ok on to the fun part.... The catalog: Quote Link to post Share on other sites

CapeLights 5 Posted February 6, 2013 Report Share Posted February 6, 2013 Oh, boy. I guess the peanuts expansion has ceased! Linus, not even listed this year. Love the new snow man, and angel. I have a feeling the "old world santa" may not even make it to production. Thanks Andrew for posting, I have been keeping my eye open for this one. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Vintage_Decor 10 Posted February 7, 2013 Report Share Posted February 7, 2013 Thanks for posting the catalog Andrew. I notice the glitter pumpkins aren't shown. I wonder if Menards will sell them again? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
hoyt clagwell 2 Posted February 7, 2013 Report Share Posted February 7, 2013 I like the new pieces, especially the snow man. I'm surprised to see the train with a black paint scheme, which is the MOST realistic color for a steam locomotive; I may have to buy one just for that. Cool! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Noah Greenia 0 Posted February 7, 2013 Report Share Posted February 7, 2013 Wow. Exciting. Now we just need places to actually BUY them. Hopefully Young's will be able to. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RichardG 79 Posted February 7, 2013 Report Share Posted February 7, 2013 I hope Santa is made!! I would love to have him along with the snowman and angel. Hopefully it happens unlike Linus Quote Link to post Share on other sites

It almost looks like a dark forest greenish to me? Idk LOL Thanks for posting the catalog Andrew. I notice the glitter pumpkins aren't shown. I wonder if Menards will sell them again? Idk i wonder that too..I'm glad I was given one as a gift either way! --- I think the Old World Santa looks like a gnome/santa...he should have been called a Snome I also like the snowman, he's def. different!

Elaine F 13 Posted February 7, 2013 Report Share Posted February 7, 2013 I LOVE the new angel, and the new Santa and Snowman are pretty cool, too Thanks for sharing, Andrew! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Rockin' Lights 10 Posted February 8, 2013 Report Share Posted February 8, 2013 I was wondering if anyone else tried this before: buying some of those all white blow molds(ones haven't been painted yet) and put different color bulbs in them and see how they look. (Like red and green bulbs) just wondering??? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Elaine F 13 Posted February 9, 2013 Report Share Posted February 9, 2013 He, Andrew. I'm over in Palm Bay, just east of you on the coast. Would a bulk order be shipped to you in Orlando? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Isaiah S. 1 Posted February 9, 2013 Report Share Posted February 9, 2013 Awesome! Genfoam should improve their quality and marketing so that more retailers buy! Love the new color schemes and products though!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Actually, I had emailed them asking that question the other day, and got a response back saying that "There was not enough interest in the Peanuts Line for Halloween so we are not offering it for 2013" Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Isaiah S. 1 Posted February 9, 2013 Report Share Posted February 9, 2013 Ah yes. Makes sense, I hope theres interests in the knew molds though! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RichardG 79 Posted February 9, 2013 Report Share Posted February 9, 2013 Ah yes. Makes sense, I hope theres interests in the knew molds though! Oh I sure hope so too!! I wish they where a little taller then 31 inches but who cares..as long as new molds are being made. LOL Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Blowmold Magic Posted February 10, 2013 Report Share Posted February 10, 2013 (edited) Andrew thanks for posting this. It sure is nice to see! I am loving some of the new color changes, hate that now their doing the lifesize Joseph in hot pink too, but a lot of the others are nice welcome changes! Of course I am not getting my hopes up on anything until I see them in stores, hope it's not like Linus again. I just purchased some of the large eggs the other day, the new colors are nice and they have the pearl additive which is nice, I can imagine that effect on the molds will be great!

scotty2403 10 Posted February 10, 2013 Report Share Posted February 10, 2013 LOVE the new angel and snowman! Will definitely be buying those. Love the new color schemes as well. The life size shepherd looks great in dark green. Never did like his tan robe. Sure hope all these actually get produced. Too bad the Peanuts line isn't expanding. Was looking forward to Linus.

rrodgers 17 Posted February 10, 2013 Report Share Posted February 10, 2013 They should have taken a poll on this site about the Linus. I'm sure everyone here wants one. I know I do. Thanks for posting the catalog. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Matt, could you post a picture of what the eggs look like with the pearl additive if you don't mind? I saw them in catalog pictures, but not the actual egg itself... Thanks in advance.
