Details

"Galaxxor is a figure/figure line that I've been working on since 2010. On one hand, it's a love letter to Mid-Century Design, Mega Man and MOTU. On the other, it's just some fun toys. And none of it would be possible without the support and partnership of Marty, The True Cast Boys and Matt. For the last 5 years, we've been making these 5.5" figures out of resin. Things are about to get even more interesting..." -- Ben Spencer

Story

8746796599 8b2dcc37ec o

The Alpha universe circa 2013

It has been 100 years since the great cosmic robot hero, Galaxxor, was killed.

Slain by the dreaded Lord Gorgax with a planet sized weapon known as The Ultimate Nullifier Cannon, the physical being of our robot hero was splintered into 999 shards, each flung to the far reaches of the pocket dimension known as The Alpha. Almost immediately, a giant neon green glowing shell formed around the home of The Seven Space Gods, the crystalline Alpha Primarus.

Over the past 100 years, Gorgax, his elite cadre of Cyborg Space Barbarian henchmen, and their Evil Mutant Legion has wreaked havoc upon the countless worlds of The Alpha. Some planets have held strong, but others have fallen to darkness and chaos.

But there is hope.

The neon shell that has surrounded Alpha Primarus has disappeared, and brilliant explosions of cosmic power are appearing at random places, throughout The Alpha. In places like the giant blue sun, Anubis 5, and the hive world known as "Dragon City", new Galaxxors are appearing.
