Galaxxnar C2E2 2014 Exclusive from ManOrMonster? x Monsterforge x Galaxxor


A while back, after the recording of one of our Nerd City podcasts, Brandon Barker (the mastermind behind ManOrMonster? Studios) and I were discussing what we could do that would be a cool exclusive for the upcoming C2E2. What we ended up deciding upon was a mash up of two of our most iconic creations. The concept was to be that, during a battle with General Gorgax and his Cyborg Space Barbarians, a severely damaged Galaxxor crash landed upon Wor. Luckily, the robot body found itself right next to one of Bog-Nar's tendrils, and regenerated into Galaxxnar: Monster Fighter Mutant Muck Menace Robo!
Somewhere between a Marvel What If? and a buddy cop movie, the idea began to take shape. Galaxxnar was going to be a super powered mashup of a character, who would end up defending Wor from a new cosmic threat. Galaxxnar was brought to life by a mind-blowingly cool sculpt by none other than Charles "Monsterforge" Marsh, with an additional Galaxxor head shield by Brandon, himself.
Galaxxnar features the magnetically interchangeable articulation that you have come to know and love from ManOrMonster? as well as an extra tendril and Galaxxor head/shield accessory. When it came to header card art duties, we called upon the insanely talented Alexis Ziritt (also a guest at Nerd City's C2E2 booth this year!). Alexis brought some seriously krackling cosmic heat with a positively stunning image of Galaxxnar, doing his proverbial thing. We're also going to offer a super limited art print of Alexis' header card at the booth this year.
Galaxxnar sports some beautiful hand painting by ManOrMonster? Studios and will be limited to an edition of 5. You will be able to score your very own Galaxxnar at Nerd City's booth (#750 in The Block) at C2E2, April 25th-27th for $100 each.

Galaxxor 013 C2E2 Exclusive from Galaxxor x The Godbeast

After I saw just how stunningly awesome the newly reworked Galaxxor turned out (thanks to my good friends, The Godbeast and True Cast Studio), I really wanted to revisit one of the looks that Marty and I had played around with on Galaxxor 005 and Galaxxor 006, with the bb's suspended in crystal clear resin. And, I wanted to include one such figure as an additional exclusive for this year's C2E2 (April 25-27th in Chicago). Thus, following in the neon green footsteps of Cosmic Green Megakeshi Galaxxor comes Galaxxor 013!
Galaxxor 013 is a 5.5" art toy that features 2 points of magnetic articulation (shoulders). The body was sculpted/designed by Ben Spencer and was extensively refined by Marty "The Godbeast" Hansen and Josh Edwards of True Cast Studio. The figure was cast in neon green bb-filled crystal clear resin by the Godbeast. Galaxxor 013 will be $95 each and limited to an edition of 5. The figure will be exclusively available at Nerd City's booth #750 in The Block at C2E2, April 25-27th.

Lucha Sharks Fintastico C2E2 2014 Exclusive


Once again, from that corner of the Galaxxorverse known as Hive World X-544 comes Fintastico, the mystical magician of The Lucha Sharks! He'll amaze you with his arcane prowess as well as his gleaming, glittery skin! This figure was sculpted and designed by Ben Spencer and fine tuned and produced in resin by Marty "The Godbeast" Hansen at True Cast Studio. Fintastico was also given a brilliant glittery finish and hand painted by Ben Spencer. This figure is limited to an edition of 5 and will never be produced in this colorway ever again. Fintastico features 2 points of articulation and is exclusively available for $75 each at Nerd City's booth (we don't know the #, yet!)  starting on 04.25.14 at C2E2.
It should also be noted that Fintastico will be the last Lucha Shark figure done in this specific sculpt. TGB and I have discussed doing different types of sharks and characters in the line from the very beginning, and this will be the last figure done with the Great White mold.
Fintastico is also part of a great lineup of C2E2 2014 Exclusives at the Nerd City booth. 2014 will see Nerd City hosting an insanely cool lineup of extremely limited exclusives, from resin art figures, to vinyl designer toys, to pvc production figures, to limited edition prints and books. If you are going to be at C2E2, DO NOT MISS NERD CITY'S BOOTH!
If there is any leftover stock following the con, Fintastico will be available in from The Galaxxor Online Store.
