ODDS AND ENDS

So, I have been pretty quiet lately. This has been a direct result of having changed jobs AND addresses at the beginning of the month, and I have very much been busy with trying to get all of my big reveals in order. I have a few projects that I can't talk about just yet, but for now what I can tell you is that I will be opening my own store soon. This will be necessary, as I am doing more production and I totally expect some growing pains, so bear with me. When I get closer to opening the Irohaus store, I will have a lot more to tell you... But for now, I would like to take this time to tell you guys about my Ironhaus exclusive program.

Ironhaus: BLACK will be a series of toys, sculpted by yours truly, from numerous lines that I have worked on. They will all bear the "Ironhaus: BLACK" brand, and I look to make this series of toys be more about the Ironhaus experience. These figures will be run in smaller numbers, and will generally carry a higher price tag *GASP*... But, they will also include some extras not available anywhere else. I will be doing exclusive mini-comics, companions figures, t-shirts, stickers and a whole lot more, to make these releases more than just another indy-toy rehashing. The first of this release, will be for the HORDE figures that I did for Man E Toys.


Also, I have received a bunch of emails, here and at the Ironhaus Facebook page about the Gentlemen of Violence figures we offered up for April Fools Day... Apparently a lot of people missed these guys, or just plain thought that Eric Nilla and myself were working them... Well, it was a little bit of both. They are real figures, and while we'll likely never do the old-timey color schemes again we could be cajoled into rereleasing these figures for a one-color "Second Chance" release. If you missed out on these then post in the comments on this post or on the Ironhaus Facebook, and if there is a strong enough turnout, we'll see about putting more of these figures out.

Tomorrow, I will unveil May's Universe of Violence figure... So stay tuned.

Ironmask Returns

So, my apologies to the Ironhaus Horde, for my lack of updates lately... Life's been a whirlwind, and now that things are settling, I have some good news, AND stuff to show you!
I haven't really had time to sit down and write updates, but I have been sculpting... And I hope you likey!

First off: 
The first look at this Summer's all-new Gorewad Monsters!


 As of this moment, there are three sculpts completed or 90% completed. There will be more news on these, when we get closer to the Summer break. These guys are a little bit larger than the first few sets of Gorewads, but I'm aiming for more gore, more wad, more insanity.

 Next up, is a new take on Deadface! I haven't decided where he is going to end up, but I really liked how he turned out! He is actually smaller than the original UoV Deadface, to better match the scale of MUSCLE figures.

As for this guy above? I'm not telling you jack or shit about it, just yet. Haha, just you wait...

 Finally, I had a blast hanging out at the Columbbus Toy Show yesterday, with Bryan Borgman of Kaiju Kaos and Sandbagger JR Deem from Sandtastic Toys! Bryan scored the 1:1 Hell Turtle vs Elephunt BLACK set... Also this Summer, look for a limited release of Hell Turtle: Black sets. I'll let you guys know more about those, as we get closer to the date. Hopefully, I'll have some news about Ironhaus' showings from the toy shows in the UK and Japan by the end of the month. It's been a busy and exciting time!



As for my first solo release:
The figures are sculpted, molded, casted and ready to go... Once I get the clerical particulars in order, and my store in place, you'll have an opportunity to order the madness direct!
