POWER UP!!! We’ve been talking about improving the design and mass of the shoulders and biceps for awhile. Finally did it!
.
This was probably our most requested change to our main hero body and we are so thankful for the support despite this lacking area. You’ll notice greater striations, detail, and mass. We also cut into where the bicep and triceps meet at the brachialis, for that more natural look then just a straight cut that we had. We are still working on a few changes more to the base body before moving on which will allow us to get production rolling while we finish accessories for other characters and entire new bodies for others. We hope to have a printed version with as many of the updated as possible for @joelantatoyshow come and check it out in person! Thank you for your patience and support as always! Let’s Get Brutal!

Also concept art for the Panther Primal and WIP Uruk Packaging Art below.

Brutal Beasts are coming!

We just received the conceptual art from our 2d artist for our Brutal Beast Panther figure and the final design for our Monkey King’s neutral expression from our headsculpt designer Orobus. 2 more expressions are in the works. We have our lead designer working on the Brutal Beast body, the other Brutal Beast headsculpts, and simultaneously working on Athena as well as the other female headsculpts. Thank you all for your patience so much more to come!

We’re working on Athena!

All of this is a WIP but wanted to show all the development that’s happened for her.
.
The headsculpt were still working on as well with maybe a little more detail in the design, slim the visor down a bit more, and make her a little more beautiful.  The articulation cuts are raw right now and we normally reduce the definition and proportions to first make sure the articulation works the way we want. Then we build up and make sure the articulation isn’t hindered by the design and the design isn’t compromised by the articulation. So please keep that in mind when viewing these pictures. A lot of people think we shouldn’t share as much as we do in teens of the design process but this strategy we believe has gotten us this far and don’t think we should become more like everyone else now that we’re funded. Thank you guys for your continued support! We’re working hard not to let you down if we stumble and make a mistake we’ll try our best to identify it and rectify it. Let’s Get Brutal!

What’s Next?

We’re working on the base body to add more detail and more mass to the shoulders, square up the pecs a tiny bit, and increase range of articulation in some areas before we send that to the factory to then start the process of test models, tooling for the mold, and then mold samples. All while getting all the characters factory ready, finishing the Athena model with articulation, artists creating headsculpts for the female warriors as well as our primal realm, working on packaging, and concept art and character art for the characters missing it. We’re doing a lot basically! We’re working hard. David Vonner is already pushing us hard and pushing his factories hard so we can deliver as soon as possible. The Backerkit will be sent out with shipping quotes when we get the packaging finished as well as weight and dimensions. We’ll start manufacturing next year once the factories open back up. Thank you for your patience. 

NOW THE REAL FUN BEGINS!

Wow what a finish!!!! And it’s still growing because we enabled late pledges on Kickstarter. Their is a slight up charge from the Kickstarter prices about $2 but we think still a great price for the value. Thank you to everyone who supported us during this miraculous Kickstarter and everyone who continues to support us! Huge shoutout to everyone who ordered on bigbadtoystore as well and to them for being PHENOMENAL supporters of independent toy creators. We are working hard already to ensure we bring these figures to you as quickly and as well made as possible. Our production manager David Vonner is already talking to his factories he has lined up and he’s been making figures in this business for decades with Mattel, Hasbro, and others! Updates coming soon for every facet of The Realms as soon as we get anything that will not stop! Art, prototypes, factory developments, and merchandise we will update you all. Thank you all again! LET’S GET BRUTAL!
