It has been awhile since we did a blog update, we try to do them every 2-3 days but as the winter rolls on in the Midwest there is not a whole lot we get to do between November and usually Mid March due to the temperature not being very conducive for resin casting. The factories in China are closed Mid January-Mid February , and without factory production or resin casting we don’t have much to talk about LOL.
But as anyone who has followed us these past 5 years knows, around Mid March-Early April we start to work again and show new ideas/productions off…..that time is coming up soon 🙂
We made our 1st blog post on November 12, 2012, with sculpting work having begun earlier that year. So this year is our 5th Anniversary! We have some cool releases coming later this year to celebrate that, as well as the long overdue release of Issue 5 and our expansion of characters of the OPW.
A few things will change this year, we will be working less conventions. After 5 years of traveling to 5-7 Conventions we are tired and are taking a break. We would rather invest that travel money this year back into the line for you to have new toys and new prototypes! We may still pop up at a few Conventions but right now we want to focus on expanding our brand for 2017.
So sit back, buckle up and enjoy the ride as we head towards an official 5th Anniversary in November 🙂
With the cut back aren’t you worried about your product losing exposure?
(thanks for the update)
I think at this point five years in a majority of our fans already know who we are. I have seen this in the sales reflected online, it is always nice to expose the brand to new people and so we may do a few shows….but we want to focus on online sales, the comic and new characters this year 🙂
