Dear friends, fans & colleagues,
We just had an epic Toy Fair which set up the next round of fun-tastic projects for 2019.
We had a great time connecting with current clients, and added some amazing new ones. We came back to the studio with a jam packed to-do list and we are looking forward to taking sledgehammer to it and smashing it to bits over the next year. Looks like we're just getting warmed up here!
While we were shmoozing our current and prospective clients, the rest of the attendees were gawking at booths full of beautiful toys that we developed. Some highlights were:

At the DIAMOND SELECT Booth: Pacific Rim 2 Action Figures & Chibis
We officially cancelled the apocalypse this Toy Fair!
We’ve developed multiple waves of kaiju-busting Jaeger action figures and we were really proud to see them on display for all the world to enjoy. And sitting right next to the action figures were super deformed versions of some of the Jaegers and one super darned cute kaiju from Pac Rim 2. These mini figures were all executed in our Lil Bigshots style that we are pretty proud of. The figures all came out looking even awesomer than we thought!
At the FUNKO Booth: POPs & Savage World Action Figures
Over the past few months we’ve sculpted a boatload of POPs for Funko, some of which are pictured above. The big news, however, is the debut of the brand new Funko "Savage World" line of action figures that we helped out on, featuring unique body proportions of the retro figures of our childhood. Funko was showing off the Savage World Horror line as well as the Thundercats line we helped develop in their huge & amazing booth at Toy Fair (below).
At the SUPER7 Booth: G1 Transformers
Super7 is one the most creative brands in the designer toy community. Their attention to detail and passion for perfection is unmatched. We had a great opportunity to work closely with the Super7 team to create the most G1-looking G1 Transformers that ever Gee-oned. We cannot contain our nerdgasms at how this project turned out. Thanks to the whole crew at Super7 for the art direction and passion for perfection.
At the KIDROBOT Booth: Harley Quinn & Wonder Woman Statues
At the KIDROBOT Booth: Harley Quinn & Wonder Woman Statues
Kidrobot revealed a project that we’re really proud of - our collaboration with one of our favorite artists, and favorite humans in the art toy business, Brandt Peters. Brandt created a wonderful version of Harley Quinn and we were super stoked to work with him on this sculpt. Brandt’s Harley is pictured here next to the Wonder Woman statue by Tara McPherson which we also developed for Kidrobot.
So, what can we do for you this year?
