 Coming soon from Unbox Industries, a set of four little rubbery figures, each should be about 2.5 or 3 inches tall... Greasebat, Spike Wad (pictured) , Stee-Gar and M5 Bravo. All are done in a cartoony style, sort of cute but not Hello Kitty either. Here's the header card....  Debuting at the Taipei Toy Festival and SDCC. Fun project ! |

These are going to be really cool Jeff, I think you achieved a great balance in that sculpt between the monster and cuteness factor. Now we just need a playset to go with the play set. |

^ THIS. I agree with all of this! I love the direction you are heading with all of your toys! Are any of these going to be offered to those of us who cannot go to the festival/conventions? I hope...  Also, maybe for the time being until you make a plastic castle playset, how about a cardboard punch-out castle type of thing? This should be relatively inexpensive and relatively easy to design. You can include them as a backing card or a link to a template to print out (Which could also be a C/DIY).  Here is a link to what I am talking about: http://mermag.blogspot.pt/2012/05/inter ... e-diy.html

I'm not sure when the release date is, I think they will be ready by SDCC in America, debuting at the Taipei Toy Fest. Four figures total. I like the idea of a cardboard print-out backdrop. When I was a kid I loved those things , I had an old west town. Some of the 80's Japanese toys I have came with little cardboard insert cut-outs. Tokyo tower etc. Some of the buildings I would like to add would be modern architecture classics... |

Would be cool to have San Diego themed playset for SDCC and then NYC for NYCC, etc. And make them connect for a large mega playset. |

This would be the bees knees! If you could actually make this work and happen...  My mouth is just watering at the thought!

 Here's a photo of the finished play sets, available at the Taipei Toy Fair, I think there will be some at SDCC via Monster Worship also. Of special note- this is the first Greasebat figure with a tongue! |

Looks like they came out excellently. I just want to toss 'em and trade 'em now, and have all kinds of LRG adventures with them. Congrats Jeff! |
