Zoanoid Inspired Pheyaos Customs

When I was working on the Pheyaos customs a few received Zoanoid/Guyver inspired paint jobs.

Guyver's creator,Yoshiki Takaya, has created so many incredible and iconic designs that they seem to creep into everything I do -since all the way back to 1985! I can't believe Guyver is that old!

My childhood bedroom used to have xeroxed pages of Guyver taped to the walls that I would copy from old Japanese magazines. Guyver, Fist of the North Star, Grey, and Dragon Ball Z drove me crazy back in the 80's.

Oh yeah, I also loved Baoh!

Real Type Forever

The customizing from the last few CC runs continues, now with the new addition of the Axis Joints. The combination of finding some stronger paints and having all new building parts has been really exciting. I kind of feel like the cycle of making custom figures has come full circle for me with this stuff. A taste of the old techniques mixed with brand new materials has made creating even more fun than before.

Real Type Invasion

All new colorways have arrived just in time for the San Diego Comic Con (booth #4937 ). This wave of Pheyden and Exellis colors pays homage to the classic "Real Type" color schemes found in many imported Japanese model kits that we loved as kids (like Ma.K.). These "realistic" sets of colors were more subdued, conveying a militarized and industrial tone that gave those old Sci-Fi models a harder edge. Kind of like the Space Marines in Aliens or the first few waves of GI Joe in the early 80's. A lot of the Zentradai in Macross had these slightly muted tones as well. I've always gravitated towards these Real Type colors and love seeing our familiar old characters try them on for size. Hope you guys enjoy them and be on the lookout for more new releases in August and September (more clear and more Real Type). Oh yeah, a very limited edition of Sarvos and Phanost will be available later this week. We will debut them at SDCC and also offer them online. A brand new 98 page, full color and perfect bound Glyos System Series Visual Guide will also debut later this week that chronicles everything that we have been doing since the last SDCC. It contains all our artwork, photos and piles of sketches as well as a few interesting takes on the Glyos characters by some of our very talented friends. Like a big art book. Should be a crazy week.
