Thieves


(Just a few hundred miles away from planet Velgeris...)

After the massive success of selling his latest infantry by the fleets, we find Acris sifting through space in search of a new specimen worthy of his tech. Drifting along, his ship starts passing over planet Velgeris. A few spikes appeared on his radar claiming a high source of power was near. Unsure of the spike, Acris decides to take a defensive stance in response to this anomaly. However, it was too late to defend his ship from the invaders. The Treeborgs of Velgeris pummeled into his ship with haste. They raided his armory and labs and took anything they could find in a scramble. Acris' defense team on board was too late as well to take action against these scavengers of tech. They fled the ship to return to Velgeris with their newly acquired power. 

The necessary repairs were made to the ship immediately after the attack. Acris prepared his team of  Mecha Acris and Vyvocree units for a massive search and destroy mission on Velgeris. This may have been the new specimen he was looking for after all, or possibly not...

Cranking Away



Hey everyone! Sorry for the lack of Spaced Out content and or updates, been chipping away at the latest assortment of figures at the shop. Still trying to find a good balance between it all, but rest assured that new product and content is coming to those of you that are looking to explore a new section of the universe! Its been a very interesting transition from casting in urethane and mold making to manufacturing 3D printed figures. Let me say that in the many years I spent making molds and casting, 3D printing takes the cake on the labor load! Hah! I find it is more labor intensive post printed parts, but the end results are very satisfying and rewarding. Just to give a ballpark idea of the time it takes to make a Spaced Out toy; every figure can take up to 12-15 hours just to make one complete. This includes printing time, clean-up and scraping each surface, prepping for acetone, vapor bathing, tooling and assembling. This does not include things like: overnight cure for acetone vapor bathing and or painting/customizing. Needless to say, it takes awhile and your hands are into these guys a lot!

Above are some shots from the shop in the clean-up stage. Back to work!
(Yes, I tried taking a panoramic shot)

In Transit


The first round of orders are packed and ready to hit the post in the morning! Thank you for coming out last night and checking out the latest Spaced Out offerings. I am truly humble to be able to share these creations with everyone. It has been super fun making theses guys and I am absolutely psyched for them to wander out into the wild!

The next wave of orders should roll out tomorrow afternoon. Check your email for shipping notifications. If you don't see yours, it is on the way!

I would like to thank the talented pixel master Marcus for whipping the site into shape and making it fit the latest theme! We worked many hours designing and tweaking elements that I think work well with Acris' universe. Thanks again brother!I would also like to thank Matt for his council on all of these projects that I decide to pursue. Matt has been a true inspiration to me when it comes to making toys. I can never thank you enough big bro!

Thanks again for peeking into the depths of Acris' realm. There is much more to come!
