Announcing Resin Is King Series 3 Release at NYCC


When do you announce new releases and/or NYCC drops? There's no clear right answer... I say, it's when half of your artists start posting about the series, that's about when you should think about making an official announcement!

We are very proud and excited to announce another series of beautiful, handcrafted resin sculptures: Resin is King Series 3. Resin Is King is a concept that Brian (Dead Hand Toys) and I came up with a few years back. There have been many production BB toy series, and several super tight custom Dunny and custom mini figure series that set a high benchmark for home-brew series. But, really, nothing for resin collectibles. So we did it ourselves.

Here are the details: Resin Is King is a blind-boxed series (mystery figures packaged in identical boxes). All pieces are just under 3" tall. For Series 3, we have 10 artists each contributing 10 pieces for a total of 100 blind boxes. Each artist's 10-piece run will be the same sculpt, but possibly involve different color variants and/or chase variants. The series will include a Golden Ticket (or maybe more than one?) included randomly inside the boxes. Each blind box will be $30. Boxes will include a numbering system on the bottom which will allow buyers to avoid picking 2 boxes from the same artist, without disclosing which artist's piece is inside. See? We are getting smarter!

We are now up to Series 3, releasing live at NYCC at our Booth #309 in The Block.

The Series 3 artist roster is as follows, all fine human beings who we are proud to call friends and business partners:
  • Taylored Curiosities
  • Mike NEMO Mendez
  • UME Toys - Rich Page
  • Dead Hand Toys
  • The Jelly Empire
  • Angry Artist
  • Argonaut Resins
  • Jacob JAMS
  • Magitarius
  • Forces of Dorkness 
You might have run across our ad in the SDCC issue of Clutter (page 29, coincidentally just before the article about Penny of Taylored Curiosities!):




Hope to see many of you at our NYCC booth! Release will occur immediately when the floor opens.

Resin Is King Series 4 is slated for release Q2/Q3 of 2017.
