I’m pleased to announce that the first free update to Mouse Vault is now available. Version 1.0.1 adds more than 30 missing figures to the database, including the missing variants, combo toppers, and announced releases since version 1.0 came out just a couple of weeks ago. Additionally, this update also adds the first user requested feature, a total figure counter to the “My Collection” screen.
Work has already begun on the next free update to Mouse Vault, version 1.1, and its expected to be available in mid-April.
I’ve been working over the past week on the version 1.0.1 update and one of my goals was replacing as many of the placer images as possible with custom figure photos. The problem was I couldn’t find these Vinylmation anywhere. Then it hit me, what better place to find rare Vinylmation then at a trading event?
Yesterday, I packed up all my photo gear and headed to Downers Grove for the monthly meeting of the Windy City Pin Traders. Don’t let the name fool you, these fans love Vinylmation almost as much as they love pins. Thanks to Melody and Ralph I was able to track down and photograph many of the rare figures missing from the app. You’ll see these (and a ton more) in the next update.
Since version one has been submitted to Apple I’ve had time to set up my gear and take pictures of a couple of missing figures and the cover photo for our facebook page.
My light box setup:
I bought the lightbox many years ago from Calumet Photo and its been put to good use ever since. Enough lighting is always the challenge and I think I’ll add a second light source in the future.
Villains 2 Chaser: Mother Gothel
Park 7 Variant: Figment in Yellow Spacesuit
UPDATE: The photo tent that I used was from Calumet photo and is available here for $35.
After a ton of database updates, graphic design, and a couple of code rewrites Mouse Vault version 1.o is just about to be submitted for review. I wrote this app at the request of my wife, an avid Vinylmation collector (we’ve bought furniture specifically to hold them), and I’m really excited to release it.
