Hey guys,
I know I keep in touch with most of you on Facebook or wherever but as this line is going the distance, I wanted a place to keep track of releases, as well as give all the details that I know people here are interested in and I can't get most people to listen to.
BMT Hardcore is a coming together of my characters made in all formats since Bigmantoys started, and will also incorporate characters from other creator's lines.
What they all have in common is that they are 2.4", rubber, and in a super deform format.
Vl. 1 wave 1 is now available at bigmantoys.bigcartel.com
Each wave will have 3 new sculpts as well as a chase variant of one of them.
Wave one features Treegarr, Moribund, and Hydraxe.
Treegarr (the one that looks like a tree!)
Treegarr was my breakout character about 5 years ago. He has been released as a 5.5" figure and as a mini, with a special variant produced for the Mystical Warriors of the Ring line.
He is an evolution of the tree that came with the Fright Zone playset I was always fascinated with as a kid. Every sculpt I've done of Treegarr has emulated the bark texture of the tree.
Moribund (the skeleon guy)
Moribund is a demon that hovers over the dying and collectd their souls when it's their time. I orignially released him as a 7" resin action figure based on characters from the album cover for Samhain III - November's coming fire. I've added a lot of manga accents to this sculpt. Not only the proportions but things like cross-cracks in the bone and stiching on the cape.
His right hand holds the cross featured on the 2nd Danzig album Lucifuge, and his left hand is making sign of the devil
Hydraxe (the two headed thing)
Hydraxe is based on a 14" custom version of the character Hydraz from Remco Warrior Beasts. I used to make a ot of customs with double-dragon heads and always wanted to do a mini using them. For this guy, I really channelled Akira Toriyama. The style of the axe, the wooden damaged sheild, the harness - theyre all new additions I used to fill the sculpt up and borrow heavily from Toriyama's Dragon Quest and earaly Dragonball.
Wave 1 features limtied editions of (20 each) green, pink, orange, and yellow. As well as the default flesh tone that I will make all figures available in at some point. There are also 5 handpainted sets available ever.
