The Battle for X-312 11.08.18

Following the destruction of the space fortress Cerberus, dimensional rifts began to appear throughout the known universe. The area sin space  near these rifts became subject to anomalies of all types, from temporal shifts to cosmic reversals, to the appearance of entities from opposing dimensional existences. One such place was the crumbling hive planet on  The Western Systemic Belt, X-312. A crackling dimensional gate burst into being on the twisted technological world, and from it appeared the heroic Space Wizard, Raeyor-Ca, and with him, his mighty Knights of Ca.

But following them through the portal was the evil Dark Zyldrani Seer, Mach Jetter! Quickly utilizing his demigod-like powers to corrupt the ancient mechanical landscape of X-312 into a biomechanial monstrosity under his control, Mach Jetter launched a campaign of terror and destruction against Raeyor-Ca and his Knights of Ca!

Tributes/homages are always a fun undertaking for me. The primary reason for why I've gotten to this place is my love of those old iconic characters of the past. It's a lineage of creative dna that informs so much of what I do and inspires me to continue creating. Often, those inspirations are buried deep in the designs that I release, or mixed up with so many other inspirations that the end result isn't necessarily recognizable as a direct descendant of any particular thing. Other times, it's fun to say "screw it" and do a proper tip of the hat to a character or two that are near and dear to my heart. This drop is one of those times.

Utilizing the Galaxxor form to create different color ways and characters never ceases to entertain me. But I shouldn't get to have all of the fun...

Canonically, there are 999 Galaxxors. I'm not sure how many I've actually created. 20? 25? The original intention was always to involve you. The concept was to allow Galaxxor's form and universe be a platform in which you could create characters of your own. And with tonight's drop. That vision starts to become a reality!

Along with tonight's drop, I will have a full production wave of blank DIY white vinyl Galaxxors (dome head only) for $20 each. I cannot wait to see what all of you create! 

Raeyor-Ca\Mach Jetter will be available for purchase on 11.08.18 at 8pm Central from galaxxor.com. As with the other Glyos-compatible Galaxxor vinyl figures, Raeyor-Ca\Mach Jetter will come with both the Space Wizard (double sided) and the Zyldrani Seer head, for a total of three  display/character options. They will be $30 each.

Space God Infiniton Resin Figure for Clutter Gallery's Inaction Figures 3 Group Show

 

 

From the crystalline planet at the center of the Galaxxorverse, Alpha Supremis, comes Infiniton, one of the cosmic Seven Space Gods! Anyone who's been playing along at home knows that The Seven Space Gods are the real movers and shakers of the Galaxxorverse, so it's super cool to have one of them realized in resin. I was honored to have the opportunity to participate in Clutter's Inaction Figures 3 group show this year and wanted to come up with something really special to contribute. Like most people my age, I was a huge fan of Transformers as a kid, and, for some reason Ultra Magnus's head really spoke to me (not literally. I'm not that crazy). Taking into account that the overall theme for Clutter's Inaction Figures shows is toys form the 70's-90's, I jumped at the chance to mash up that iconic head with my very own Galaxxor figure. I always envisioned The Seven Space Gods as being very Kirbyesque in appearance, and, maybe I've been reading too much of Tom Scioli's Transformers vs. GI Joe, but Ultra Magnus's noggin really seemed to fit the bill.

 

 

Space God Infiniton is a 5.5" resin art toy. The Galaxxor buck, which was used for Infiniton was designed and sculpted by yours truly, and engineered and produced in resin by those wizards, Marty "The Godbeast" Hansen and True Cast Studio. The head, as I stated before, is a re-purposed from a vintage Ultra Magnus. Infiniton was hand painted by Ben Spencer, sports articulation at the shoulders and comes packaged in a traditional bag and header format.

 

 

Space God Infiniton will be limited to an edition of 3 and is $95 each. He will be exclusively available at the Inaction Figures 3 show at the Clutter Gallery.
