The StarCraft II “Raynor” figure was the first in a new line of “n00bz”, a new series of customizable and collectible Blizzard Entertainment-inspired designer vinyl toys. Standing 6.25 inches tall, the Raynor is rocking his signature StarCraft II battlesuit, nine points of articulation, a BlizzCon ‘09 shoulder mark, Easter-egg Horde and Diablo III symbols, a four-color collector’s edition box, and an excellently huge Gauss rifle accessory.

Bigshot Toyworks recently joined the Behance Network, and within just a few days our work on Bertie The Pipebomb was featured on the front page!

Thanks so much to the flood of people who gave us a “thumbs up” on Behance, and to the editors for selecting that project to feature. The tremendous amount of work in development, design, and project management that we put in to that project continues bring us more fans and clients, and we’re absolutely thrilled to continue offering that level of service to anyone in need of our expertise.

The opening reception for the first showing of “Natural Resources” was a great success!

The gallery was packed with people for the entire evening, and several of the artists showed up to check out the show! Attending artists included Mike Burnett, Chris Ryniak, Amanda Spayd, Allie Smith, and Julia Kuo.

We’d like to take a moment to thank Mr. Mike Burnett, without whom none of this would have been possible.

We always love a challenge, and Reckless Toys was kind enough to give us one!

Bigshot Toyworks handled the digital sculpting for the forthcoming Mike Sutfin “MadBattleMan” figure (prototype shown at SDCC 09) as well as the forthcoming figure from Mike Giant!

More details soon….
