DINOS ARE A'COMING!!!!!
A bit late to be posting this on the blog, since things are already in full swing, and actual VINYL is coming THIS WEEK - but better late than never!!!
The newest RAMPAGE sofubi is coming!!! There will be three new figures - DINOSAURS + CYCLOPS = CYCLOPS DINOS!!! Presenting: "T-clops," "Bronto-clops" and "Anklyo-clops." Here are the Clay sculpts:
More pics of the clay prototypes can be seen HERE (Flickr set).
About a week ago I also receied images of the wax prototypes (used to make the steel master molds). I do so love the progress of making all this stuff, and I like to share too! Here are the three figures in Wax:
Anklyo-clops! This guy is articulated at the neck and the tail. The back ('shell/carapace') is also a separate part - this facilitates the pulling of the figure from the mold, and also makes painting and mixing parts more fun ^_^
Bronto-clops! Articulated at the base of the neck and the hbase of the head - making the head more poseable, and, again, good for mixing the parts up. This also leaves me with 2 different joints that could potentially fit parts from other figures in the future ;)
T-clops! Articulates at the head and the little itt-bitty vestigial arms! The arms are less than 1/2 inch long!
As I mentioned, vinyl is actually up really soon, so I'll be updating about these guys as soon as I can! I will be offering a pre-order for blank orange, green (bright green!) and purple vinyl once I have images of the test pulls from the molds! The option wwill also be offered to mix parts - mixed to your specifications for eeach of the little guys! Keep an eye on the blog and Flickr for updates and new images!
One last thing - SDCC is coming FAST! Fingers crossed there will be a nice little bundle of RAMPAGE TOYS in the mix over there! Updates to follow ;)

Collaborations in the Works!
Hey Folk!
When did I write last?... I forget :-/
Anyhow, been back at it for a couple weeks now - painting some Uamous (catching up on a big batch of pre-orders from March's show at Studio Uamou), updating the shop and getting to work on some great new collaborations! I'm super psyched to be able to many so many people's sofubi! It's especially great because I I have awesome stuff to do while I wait for my own vinyl to be pulled at the factory (delays, delays...).
So, without further blabbering - photos!
RAMPAGE x KILLER J
4 versions of Killer J's "Starpet" - all neon and metallics, all on GID vinyl. These are dropping on June 9th via Killer J's website/blog. Information about buying these guys is here:
http://yaplog.jp/killerj/
And then a little WAAAAY early tease of something for July :-P
RAMPAGE x FRENZY - work in progress of course...
More on these guys at a later date.
And much more to come too - another update tomorrow!

DESIGN FESTA
I'm traveling a bit these last couple weeks - lots of pictures on my Instagram (under the user name jmrampage - in case you're also addicted to that insta-thingy like me :-P )
Next up in the RAMPAGE TOYS world is DESIGN FESTA 35 - at the Odaib Big Site in Tokyo!!! The event will be head this coming Saturday and Sunday (5/12-5/13), opening at 11 AM both days. I will have oodles of stuff, including some new prints, and a couple new painted runs of sofubi. The two things I'm bringing excluisvely to DF are these:
RAINBOW HAIR Ugly Unicorns! Some color-intensive spray on these guys :-)
RAMPAGE x CHIMA GROUP pearly-rainbowy Bollos! Yeah - the name says it all.
If you're in Tokyo, I hope you can make it out to the event - should be a good time! You can find me on the first floor in booth E17 or E18 (a few of us are splitting a space - in those two booths).

Next Monday (4/30/2012) is Superfestival 59 in Tokyo! I'm PSYCHED!
I'll be in a big ol' shared space with Ilanena, Fig-lab, Shirahama and (for part of the day) Chima Group! Should be some good times!
Of course I tried to pull together a formidable array of painted toys - I hope I accomplished that goal! Here are pictures:
First release of the Manotaur! 5 sets of "Companion Monsters" - Manotaur + UU
Peter Kato Resin Ninja Cats - RAINBOW Ninja Cats! Sets of 5 mini-figures each.
RAMPAGE x Chima Group Amedas

Blue X-ray Uamous!!!
I'll also have whole bundle of stuff that Kikkake gave me to paint - bears, elephants, Kellerman, Gekko, Goccodo poo dudes! The works! And, of course, some stand-alone Ugly Unicorns ;) Most of the new Ugly Unicorns will be at Design Festa on may 13th and 14th, so expect a BIG update about those guys soon!
Hope to see some of you at SF59!
