A Belated Thank You and Updates

 A very belated but sincere thank you for making the last wave a success! It's been an unusually heavy work cycle here over the last few months, with many projects both internally and from across the makers coming to fruition seemingly all at once. From the Crae Drake project with Jesse D to the new Velgerian project with Pj, there has been an extra steady flow of intense collaborative teamwork happening, continuing the original dream of creating things with friends. 

More brand-new action is also currently afoot with Sam of Angry Hedgehog Toys teaming up with the always exceptional Cappyspace to debut the very well thought out Colossi of Chaos Glyos compatible line of beast busting robots. Over in California, the multi-talented Rocom, of Mighty Maniax fame, recently released the first single from his new band Throwlight, which will definitely get the blood pumping as we all prepare for the arrival of the first Dark Earth production run (test shots have been looking absolutely wicked).

The wide variety of unique ideas that the different Glyos makers each regularly come up with continues to turn the creative gears, and before the year is over, you'll see even more new additions to the family.

Wave 102 allowed some previously unrevealed Crayboth storyline to finally trickle out, thanks directly to Dillon and Sen once again sharing their extraordinary talents. Dillon was able to bring everything into focus with his strong visual narrative, which was no small task considering the amount of reference materials he had to coordinate. The ability to explore comics again is 100% because of Dillon and his generous and authentic perspective on creating art, not to mention his extremely warm personality. Paired with the outstanding cinematic pinups that the soulful and stalwart Sen continues to bring to life, we're really in a particularly fortunate era of new Glyos related artwork. 

A very, very special thank you also goes out to Cady for composing the incredible song that scored the short animation we worked on together with Marcus. It's a true dream being able to create with you, Bubba!

Sneaking into the wave was the introduction of the "Mite" style designs. The Glymite and Sincromite were both created to deliver a compact experience of playing around with Glyos parts and play patterns at a low price. The Glymite follows the more narrative approach of figures like Pheyden and Pheyoas, with the ability to quickly build up small forms that center around the core body. The Sincromite leans more into Buildman and Sincroborg territory, with building out into different forms being more the natural focus. The initial response seems to have been positive so far, so we'll see if maybe we continue to expand the Mite range.  

Shipping was handled by Michelle and I and thanks to all of you we've stayed very busy for the entire month since the initial sale. Music during packing was a span across deep Little Dragon tunes and Chiisana Kyojin Microman videos. My love for the Microman Magne Powers line will never die. Takara, please make those forgotten Beetle Troopers!

Looking ahead, Wave 103 is set to rollout towards the end of next week (looking like October 10th) and will feature some all-new "space-quatic" related things, as well as a modest return of the Mites. We are also set to once again attend LegionsCon in early November, which everybody here is super excited for. We'll post about the details as we get closer to the show. 

Thank you again for standing shoulder to shoulder with us and pushing things to stay creative and hopeful, even after all the twists and turns that nearly two decades in the field have brought. We still love doing this with all of you!
