Bigshot Toyworks has an incredible amount of work being shown at this year’s San Diego Comic Con…here’s a sneak peek, and info on where to find it!

We’ve got several new pieces releasing this Fall with some amazing creative partners. The second and final colorway of the “Misfortunate Travelers” resin statue, designed by Chris Ryniak and Jonathan Bergeron, will be available soon along with the “Scary Girl” statue designed by Nathan Jurevicius. These two pieces are geared more towards fine art collectors, and have turned out beautifully! Both statues will be available for wholesale through DKE Toys, and will be on display at San Diego Comic Con at their booth, #4732.

Mike Sutfin’s first version of his Mad Battle Man figure will be exclusively available at San Diego Comic Con at the Toy Tokyo booth, #5437. This is the inaugural release from Reckless Toys, with the sculpting and production assistance by Bigshot Toyworks. Limited to 60 pieces worldwide, the over-9-inch-tall, soft-vinyl figure will go on sale on Preview Night, Wednesday, July 21, for $98.

Coming at SDCC is the first release of “The Seeker”, a 12″ vinyl figure based on a character created by noted pop surrealist artist & illustrator, Jeff Soto. These special Hi-Fructose exclusives will also come with a limited edition print, signed and numbered by Jeff!

The Seeker will be available in several variants, each with a different paint scheme and horn design. Featuring original box art by Jeff Soto and with the “Ghost Seeker” variant scheduled to be released at 2010 San Diego Comic Con through Hi-Fructose Magazine (Booth#4939), The Seeker is one of the most highly anticipated designer art toys of the year!

The Uncle Six Eyes statue by Travis Louie has changed course and will be released as a 10″ bust instead of a full-body figure. The final production prototype will be available to view at San Diego Comic Con, also at the Hi-Fructose Magazine booth, #4939.

We’re also incredibly excited to announce two more resin projects, both of which will be available for viewing at San Diego Comic Con. We’ve just completed the sculpt for a new bust based on Mike Mignola’s “Skeleton Head” character, with an estimated launch date of Winter 2010. The prototype will be available for viewing at Mignola’s booth, #4901.

We’ll also be showing, again at the Hi-Fructose booth, the prototype of a new statue, commissioned by Circa Survive and based on the painting by Esao Andrews used for their album, “Blue Sky Noise”. The statue will be available directly from the band, and further details will be announced as they have been finalized.

We will have limited time at the Con for meetings to discuss potential projects…if you’d like a chance to discuss how Bigshot Toyworks can help on your next project, please contact our Sales Director to set up a meeting!

This long-awaited figure was first shown in rapid output prototype form at 2009 San Diego Comic Con. All new toy designs from Bigshot Toyworks are sculpted digitally, and presented to the client as rapid output prototypes for approval.

Scheduled to ship from the factor in September 2010, the first painted sample of The Seeker will be shown publicly this Saturday at the opening of Jeff’s newest solo show, “Lifecycle”, at the Jonathan Levine Gallery in NYC.

Multiple Seeker variants will be released, both different color schemes and different horn designs, with several being exclusive releases through selected retailers. More details will be released closer to the figures becoming available…in the meantime, please visit Jeff’s show in NYC for an up-close look at this first paint master, and check out this new interview with him at Fecal Face.com.

“Gish“, created by indie game developer Edmund McMillen and Chronic Logic, is the adventure of a 12-pound ball of tar as he rescues his girlfriend in a labryinth of underground tunnels. Winner of the 2005 IGF Grand Prize, the 2005 IGF Innovation in Game Design, and multiple Game of the Year awards, the second Gish game is just around the corner, and Gish will be making a guest appearance as a playable character in Cryptic Sea’s highly anticipated “Super Meatboy” game, coming to XBox Live, Wiiware, and PC in Summer 2010!

The Gish plush figures come in 4″ and 8″ sizes, each available with two different faces; Smilin’ or Toothy. Made of a super-soft velour with embroidered detail, the Gish plush figures are perfect for perching next to your computer, hurling at irritating roommates, or just having a long heart-to-heart with after you get dumped by someone who just doesn’t love video games like you do. The 4″ figure retails for only $8.00, while the 8″ figure is available for only $16.00.

The Gish plush figures are available online only at www.bigshottoystore.com.

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.

Unavoidable production delays put this project on the back-burner for a while, but they are FINALLY HERE!!

The “Coney” plush is based on artwork by Brian Taylor, better known as “Candykiller“. One of the best character designers out there, Brian’s work is a stellar blend of old-timey cartoons with a modern edge. It was a challenge to develop a plush figure that did his work justice, but we believe we’ve finally done it.

The Coney stands 14″ tall, and has a weighted base. That’s right, it’s a free-standing plush figure. He’s also got burly arms, a cigarette dangling from his snarling lips, tattoos, and a bad attitude.

Made of high-quality canvas, the artwork is silk-screened. And awesome. Both color and mono versions will be available. Color version is limited to 250 pieces, and Mono is limited to 50 pieces. The Mono version will ONLY be available through the upcoming Bigshot Toyworks Factory Store! In addition, the Bigshot Factory Store version of each plush will include an exclusive, limited edition letterpress print, signed and numbered by the artist!

The Coney Cloud is 14″ in diameter, made of a super-soft velveteen, and the artwork is fully embroidered on both sides! It’s going to be your bestest nap-time buddy, just so long as it doesn’t beat you up and run off with your sister. Limited to 250 pieces, 100 pieces will be available from the Bigshot Toyworks Factory Store with an exclusive letterpress print, signed and numbered by the artist.

Coming very, very soon!!  For wholesale inquires, please contact DKE Toys.

Think we’ve been doing enough resin lately?

Vs. YOU by Munich-based artist & graff writer Shawn/THESIGNER/Flatau is a 4″ resin statue with an uber-high-gloss finish and a perfect wooden slide-top box.

This edition of only 288 pieces worldwide is a pretty excellent collectible and we had an great time making Flatau’s vision a reality with this piece. Bigshot Toyworks handled full production of the figure and packaging.
