The Crisis in The Lazarus Sector Continues- The Scimitar

Galaxxor 002 rocketed towards the planet Txoltep. To his right, he saw an ebony behemoth of a ship, tumbling through space, out of control, being torn apart by violent explosions. To his left, he saw the moon-sized pyramidal space fortress known as Cerberus. It rippled with an inter-dimensional unnatural energy that sickened Galaxxor 002's circuits to the core. As he entered Txoltep's arid atmosphere, the interior of his dome began to crackle with cosmic energy. The voices of The Seven Space Gods spoke to him in choral unison...

Galaxxor, we are uploading to you the coordinates of the base known as The Scimitar. It is controlled by the Cyborg Space Barbarian Nebularr and his mutant henchmen. The Scimitar houses the control system for the defenses of Cerberus. You must enter The Scimitar, defeat Nebularr and his followers, and disable Cerberus's defenses. The fate of The Lazarus Sector hangs in the balance!

The expanse of Txoltep spread out below Galaxxor 002. It was a shimmering desert wasteland framed by crystalline mountain ranges. Crackling lightning storms shredded the dark purple of Txoltep's skies. In the distance, Galaxxor 002 saw a great tower, reaching skyward. The bio-mechanical construct of some ancient mad architect, the twisted tower flared towards the top, like a nightmarish curved blade. From its tip, swirling black energies swirled upward into space.

The iridescent white sand of Txoltep exploded in a glittering cloud as Galaxxor 002 landed before the entrance of The Scimitar. Almost immediately, a great door opened, and a horde of mutant warriors walked out. Towering, multi-limbed insectoid monstrosities charged towards Galaxxor 002.

Hearing a great "THUD!", Galaxxor 002 looked back to see that Galaxxor 011 had landed behind him. Nodding to one another in recognition, the two turned toward the monstrosities and prepared for battle...

The darkness of the control room of The Scimitar was lit only by the unearthly glow of arcane machines and a central holoscreen. Surrounded by his insectoid henchmen, Nebularr looked on as the holoscreen displayed the Cyborg Space Barbarian Azralok and his cabal of Space Wizards . In the core of Cerberus, they levitated above a rift in the very fabric of reality. Psychic energy burst forth from their eyes as beasts from beyond this plane shuddered in and out of form.

Suddenly, the warning klaxons of The Scimitar sounded. 

His fortress was under attack!

I'm extremely excited to announce that my latest production vinyl figure, Galaxxor 002/Nebularr will be available for purchase on 01.25.17 at 8pm Central from galaxxor.com.

As with the other Glyos-compatible Galaxxor vinyl figures, Galaxxor 002/Nebularr will come with both the horned head and the dome head, for both display/character options. They will be $30 each.

Sincerest thanks for your continued support. Without it, Galaxxor wouldn't be what it is. There are some incredibly exciting things in the works. So stay tuned!

And what the hell is going on on Cerberus?!?!?

The Void ...and Designercon 2016!

Galaxxor 011 levitated just above the mirror-like surface of a giant disk floating in the blackness of space. Multi-colored bolts of cosmic energy crackled around him. Before Galaxxor, the towering projection of the Infiniton, one of The Seven Space Gods, loomed. It spoke- 

There is a crisis in the Lazarus Sector, Galaxxor. Your brothers, 002 and 005, are currently locked in battles on two fronts. It is the intention of Lord Gorgax to bolster his forces there. As I speak, the Space Barbarian Skalldron has taken Gorgax's greatest ship, The Void, and filled it with soldiers from The Evil Mutant Legion. They are headed directly for The Lazarus Sector in hope of turning the tide of the conflict, and crushing your brothers. It is up to you, Galaxxor 011, to intercept The Void, and eliminate this threat. 

   
The Void sliced through the swirling cosmic expanse of space. It was a massive longship built of a material so black, that it only registered as the total absence of light. In its control room, Skalldron gathered a group of 13 of his most elite warriors. Facing away from them, he looked upon a sprawling holoscreen. Amid clusters of arcane data readings was the image of Cerberus, a moon-sized pyramidal space fortress. Skalldron turned to face his men, steam rising from the joints in his armor. From the empty blackness of his helm, an eerie yellow glow projected from his cybernetic eyes. 

Prepare your troops, Generals. We reach The Lazarus Sector in four cycles! 

Once again this year, I have the honor of attending Designercon (Nov 19th and 20th in Pasadena, CA) as an exhibitor. I'll be at booth #1001 with my friends and fellow Glyosians The Godbeast, Mystical Warriors of the Ring and Bio Masters. I'll be bringing along what little stock I have left of Galaxxor 001/Thanyr, Gorgax/Roxxalag and Galaxxor 007/Infernicus. I will also be debuting a brand new figure, one which is heavily inspired by one of my all time favorite properties, Galaxxor 011/Skalldron. As with the other Glyos-compatible Galaxxor vinyl figures, Galaxxor 011/Skalldron will come with both the dome and the horned head.
Galaxxor 011/Skalldron will be $30 each and will debut at the con. Leftovers will be available on galaxxor.com following the show.
Looking forward to seeing you at Dcon!

Here is an image of the final paint scheme for the Galaxxor 003 colorway. The body is a blacklight reactive magenta resin with purple and neon green hand painted detailing. The dome is a crystal clear blacklight reactive material and it houses a glow in the dark neon green brain with black paint rub detailing.
More pics and official drop info coming soon, but I would expect the official release to be towards the end of February, as this figure is fairly labor intensive. Once again the edition size for this will be 5.
Also, if anyone's still interested, there are 2 Galaxxor 002s in the online store with your name on them.

003 WIP

Well, I know that I just recently posted the blacklight glowing image of this guy from The Godbeast, but I wanted to get up a pic asap to show just how cool this neon magenta resin looks without any blacklight help! The overall brightness of the plastic does tend to play some funny tricks with the camera, but, through the magic of Photoshop, I feel I have fairly accurately conveyed how intense the magenta truly is.
I have also begun messing around with a black paint rub technique, to really pop the details of the glow in the dark neon green brain contained in that pointy dome that the 003 has. I'm pretty certain that I'm going to stick with the rub, but am certainly open to any feedback.
Also worth noting is that there are still 2 Galaxxor 002's left in the shop. So, if you're thinking that you want one of them, be sure to grab it here.
Finally, thanks to everyone who has purchased a Galaxxor 002! Your support is endlessly appreciated. They are on their way to you today.

Unpainted Glowing Galaxxor 003

Straight from The Godbeast comes this sneak peek preview picture of an unpainted Galaxxor 003! What you're seeing here is a blacklight glow image of the figure. It will consist of a uv reactive neon magenta body, a new crystal clear uv reactive dome and a neon green glow in the dark brain! Keep watching the blog for more 003 updates very soon.
Also, don't forget that the Galaxxor 002 drops Monday, January 17th, at noon CST in the Galaxxor Online Store.

In an Interstellar Burst...

From the gas giant Titanos comes the second Galaxxor: Monster Hunter Robo, Galaxxor 002! This classic 5.5" action figure-style resin art toy was sculpted by Ben Spencer, hand cast in black light reactive translucent crystal clear resin by The Godbeast and hand painted by Ben Spencer. Galaxxor 002 features 2 points of articulation and comes packed in a traditional bag and header style with exclusive header card art by Steve Seeley. This figure is limited to an edition of 5 and will never be produced in this colorway ever again.





Galaxxor 001 sold out in just 20 hours, and the first four sold immediately. So, if you want to score one of these guys, it might be wise to jump on it sooner than later.
Galaxxor 002 will be available for $90 each on 01.17.11 at noon CST, exclusively from The Galaxxor Online Store.

Here is the final design for the Galaxxor 002 colorway. He's cast in crystal clear, uv-glow resin by The Godbeast, and features fluorescent orange hand painted detailing by me.
Better pics and release date info coming soon. We're probably still looking at an early 2011 drop.
Also, if you haven't checked it out yet, be sure to read this article by Michael Moreci about art toys, featuring interviews with Shawn Smith and yours truly.

Electric Boogaloo

Here's a quick work in progress pic of the Galaxxor 002 colorway. I'm very pleased with this design thus far and very much looking forward to seeing how it eventually turns out!
By the way, congrats to everyone who scored a Galaxxor 001. It sold out in just under 20 hours! All 5 of them should be either in their new homes, or in the final leg of their intergalactic journey and popping up any day now.
It all depends on how busy I end up being during the holidays, but I'm guessing that the Galaxxor 002's will see an early 2011 release. Stay tuned!
