Grimthraxx update!



Grimthraxx! The slave warrior who became a legend in and out of the arena! Once condemned to a fate of eternal combat, Grimthraxx defied his masters and led one of the greatest revolts in Glyan history. Grimthraxx grew to be a mighty general commanding the freed warriors of the Galactic Arena in their struggle to find and tame a world of their own.










Each "Doughty-approved" Grimthraxx set includes one head and one arm that you can use to create your own Grimthraxx figure.

These are resin pieces cast by Steven Patt (AKA oOMoSOo of Papagrim Toys). He did a beautiful job with these, and I am so glad we finally got to work on a project together. If these go over well, I'm more than sure there will be more fun (decidedly more monstrous) stuff from us goons in the future!

Each set will come poly-bagged with a header. Each set will be randomly distributed, so there's no telling which color you'll wind up with. These pieces are unpainted blanks, but they are easily painted and fit most Glyos figures readily! I think they all look pretty nifty unpainted, but any of them could go on to be parts of wonderful individual custom pieces by you fantastic toy artists!!!

Each set will be $15.00 plus $3 S&H. These were made in an extremely limited number-- only 13 are being made available at this time, so grab 'em while you can. There is a STRICT limit of one set per person.

These sets will be available for sale in my store on Monday night (June 25th) at 8PM EST.

Thanks so much for your excitement and interest! You guys rule!

What's my MOH-TOOvation?

Well... I know I've been away from this blog for a while, so I figured I'd pop back up with a neat announcement.




These little guys are called MOH-TOOS, and they stand about 2 inches tall and 1.5 inches wide on average-- the one styled after Whiplash is a bit taller and wider than the rest. They are hand-sculpted and hand-painted one of a kind pieces-- these are NOT resin castings. Just like the Kawaiiju when you own one of these you own the ONLY one. You'll be getting an original piece. Additionally, just like the Kawaiiju these are unrefined sculpts that show the hand of the artist. They'll be packaged blind, but I figure if you guys are as crazy as I am about the Masters of the Universe you won't mind getting any of them... I tried to pick the most recognizable fan favorite characters starting from the first waves and moving forward.

A couple of years ago when I did the first wave of Kawaiiju figures I was talking with Phil Reed (mastermind behind Battlegrip.com), and he suggested that I make a run of Masters of the Universe themed Kawaiiju.

All this time later, and TA-DA! Here they are!

Stay tuned here-- more details are coming very soon about release time, packaging, price, shoe size, etc. :wink:

Kaiju For Japan

Artist Troy Stith held an open call for artists to contribute custom toys for a sale to benefit the victims of the recent earthquakes and tsunami in Japan. Kaiju For Japan will be live on Friday, April 22nd 2011 at 4PM EST. The benefit features a drove of fantastic artists who make my work look like a joke! I'm extremely honored to be helping out along with these gifted creators! 100% of all proceeds go directly to disaster relief. Take a look at the poster for a list of the contributors:

This is my piece that I have contributed to the benefit. I know the Armodoc isn't really a kaiju, but Troy has opened his arms to welcome any custom figures that will be donated to the cause. I call this custom the Rising Sun Armodoc-- I wanted to give it a feeling of being a battle-worn and time-ravaged juggernaut that refuses to stop no matter what the world throws at it. The resiliency of the Japanese people has always impressed me greatly, and I hope my meager contribution helps them in some small way.





The customs will be available for purchase at Troy's online store here.

On the desk...

I've been extremely negligent about updating this blog of late. I just wanted to post some pics of what I've been working on these last few days. I took some shots of my temporary work space at my brother's house. I'll be back in the madhouse soon enough for more makings of the things.





These are some more of those M.U.S.C.L.E. figures I've been painting up for my buddy George:
