Now that we have launched officially and are set to sail smoothly through 2013 we have not taken a break. We are still busy creating new characters and working on plans for next year.
And while its true that next year will be the year of the Tag Team we will also have two Giants, one you have already seen (Talos) and the other is about to be
Below you will see a teaser image of our other 2014 Giant, archnemesis to Kayin Kungaa this black onyx looking Elephant will be the tallest figure to date (similar to Goliath in bulk) at 2.7″
Conceptualized in this sketch by Canadian Artist and good friend Garry Hess here is a sneak peak at Tembo Jiwe (or the Elephant of Stone)
When I saw the picture I thought it was a hippo, but this giant elephant warrior sounds promising!
Perhaps we’ll see a hippo and rhino tag team in the future?
Since the imagination part in my brain has been triggered: any chance we’ll see a ladies division down the line?
The problem with Giants in a tag team is that the cost would be quite high compared to regular characters due to the volume of material needed to make them.
Not ruling it out by any means but at least for the next year and a half Giants will only be singles wrestlers to keep them as low in cost as I can. Perhaps if this takes off and we are able to get them made overseas then the game changes instantly.
As for ladies, we have heard a few requests for them. I can say we are working on a female, but that is all I can say. Who she is, what she looks like and how she fits in the AWF is just something the story needs to lead to 🙂 (or in short keep reading the bios and comics)
Oh, I wasn’t really thinking of the rhino and hippo to be giants. I was thinking more in terms of short and bulky. Surely the AWF can use a few warriors that know how to use their girth as an advantage?
Can’t wait to read more bios and comics!
Ok. I’m a little confused.
Come the end of 2014 how many giants will there be? five?
Ladies? Hmmmm. Interesting. Hadn’t thought of that.
There will be 4 Giants by the end of next year, Goliath and Kayin are 2013 Giants, Talos and Tembo are 2014 Giants
How about a 5th one. One taller them(think great Khali). A giraffe.
