Red Hot Robot Store Closing
|The first retail casualty of 2012 is a sad one. Red Hot Robot announced that after 4.5 years of showing and selling toy art in Phoenix, AZ, it will close its doors. RHR’s owner, Jason Kiningham, cites both business and personal reasons for the closure and says he will miss everybody. The shop will be missed as well.
Take a look back at The Resin Collective, held at RHR in 2009. If you’re in the Phoenix area, all remaining merch in the shop is 20% off. I wish Jason good luck and happiness in his next venture!

Really sad day for Phoenix collectors, it doesn’t help that Jason was truly an exceptional guy! I think he had been struggling for awhile and the opening of Lulubell in Mesa could have hurt him a bit. Good Luck Jason and thanks for all of the good times!
Ironic that your cover article is about Red Hot Robot closing, yet there is a help wanted ad for them below. That just shows how shocking the horrible news is! Thanks for the post and great site!
