Banimon Desert Dogs

Supreme Commander of the Banimon Forces, Boris Savic, has his second release of 2016 ready for action right now over in the Banimon Shop!

The new "Desert Dogs" themed sand colored sets feature some crossover combination builds that Boris has personally configured for the occasion, utilizing a special exclusive Hub Set in conjunction with his classic Banimon figure. Supporting these heavy armored soldiers is a brand new edition of the Glyos compatible vinyl Banimon Tank, decked out in colors that also match right up with our Esedeth releases from earlier this year.

We're pretty fond of anything desert related around here as far as PVC goes, so this round is a definite house favorite. Boris always puts a unique spin on things and the results are consistently surprising and exciting.

If you get the chance, spend some time reading through the story content found throughout his blog entries, lots of cool insight into the Banimon mythos awaits within!

Love this wave, B!

Bio-Masters Rising

The fantastic illustration shown above was created by Pat Bussey, the man behind the awesome Bio-Masters range of resin figures.

Over the past few years Pat has been working under the guidance of the one and only Marty "The Godbeast" Hansen to bring his concepts and drawings to life, releasing small runs of completely hand cast resin Glyos compatible Bio-Masters figures. By combining their abilities, Pat's original designs were brought into reality through Marty's excellent sculpting, resulting in an awesome and refreshing new property pulled directly from a 1980's bio-mechanical fever dream.

We've been working with Pat and Marty behind the scenes to bring the Bio-Masters line into full production for 2016, so keep your eyes open and your brain cells primed to explore another strange universe filled with tentacled monsters and creepy mutants galore!

Thank you for the killer drawing, Pat!

Thank You!!!

Thank you for a wild Friday night! The store took a beating, but we all managed to survive the rough journey back to Planet Esedeth. PayPal definitely had better lines of communication for this round, but their interface still dragged as we prepared to open the new store, causing a delay in the release, so there is absolutely more tweaking to do.

Things moved at a brisk pace, and we saw some new faces pop up throughout the launch. Outside of the bumpy start, it was a good one! Just about every order has been packed and dropped at the post as of this writing.

Looking at our upcoming assortments, we are on track for the very end of May, possibly even the first week of June depending on the progress of a few complex production pieces that are in the new mix. Expect to see the last production editions of the Protoclone head sculpt in the next wave, as the Noboto mold will be undergoing some small but significant "transformations" in the coming months.

We hope you are enjoying the assortments of 2016 so far, and we'll keep pushing to keep things exciting!

Thank you once again from the whole family!

Double Trouble

We are moving the new release to tomorrow night (Friday), April 29th at 9:30PM EDT.

PayPal just informed us that they are running some site maintenance and activating new updates/fixes tonight. Our apologies for the last minute shift of plans, but we aren't taking any chances with those guys while they mess around with their system. At least they let us know this time, which most likely saved all of us from a large helping of straight pain.

On the bright side, we can share more new builds with the extra day at our disposal.

Thank you for your patience!

Also, the third PVC color for this round is Crayhunter redorange (which is also one of the main paint accent colors on both the first Esedeth wave and this new one). This hue has really become an all time favorite around here and looks pretty good with almost any color combo, particularly black and warm gray.

More on that later.

Return to Esedeth

UPDATE: Mobilizing this Friday, April 29th, at 9:30PM EDT.  New reverse recruits will be ready to deploy, supported by returning EMP Soldiers from our first visit to Esedeth back in January.

More pics, builds and information will pop up here as we march towards the release!

Code Zereon

As Glyaxia Command continued their search through Argen's data files, many strange records relating to the early development of the Buildman Project were uncovered. Within this information lay hidden a number of abandoned concepts that were taken directly from the Sendollest Buildstation archives by Argen himself.

Of particular interest to Glyaxia Command was a sealed project simply called Code Zereon.

Argen's data revealed that during the height of the Old War, the Metran Science Department discovered a derelict craft of unknown origin among the shattered moons of the Sendollest Drifts. Through the use of a powerful alien decryption mechanism the Metran Science Department pulled a series of esoteric mechanical plans from the craft's cortex and proceeded to try and recreate what they had found. 

Documentation from the original Code Zereon experiments ended with an unexpected order to destroy all active test models and to halt any further development of the project indefinitely.

After learning of these events, Glyaxia Command realized that Argen was intent on resurrecting the Code Zereon project due to the evidence found inside his memory banks. It was then, through the use of Argen's own significant progress in nearly constructing a "Gendrone" Zereon, that Glyaxia Command was able to complete the unfinished work started by the Metran Science Department so long ago.

Now, select Esedeth Mobile Patrol soldiers utilize the first production Gendrone Zereons in their specialized missions, incorporating the compact tech into different Variable Reflex Driver configurations and testing the Zereon's limits.

EMP Buildman Cinar

To better understand the advanced Axis integrated Buildman designs discovered within Argen's unlocked data files, a special Gendrone was assembled known as Buildman Cinar.

Patterned after the Buildman "Warrior" configuration that Argen utilized for his frontline soldiers, Cinar was also given access to the many different forms that Argen had pioneered during his extended time spent in "Voyager" mode. Careful measures were used by Glyaxia Command to ensure that only specific parts of Argen's core matrix were copied and uploaded to Cinar. Though the project was still considered very dangerous, the possibility of controlling an army of hyper powered Argens was deemed worth the risk.

Cinar was assigned to the Esedeth Mobile Patrol due to the high frequency of conflict on the planet, making the landscape a perfect live training ground to gain actual combat experience.

Currently serving as an all purpose counterpart to the specialized VRD units and answering directly to Commander Awken, Cinar's development remains closely monitored.

EMP is GO!

Point Cerrek

Glyans assigned to the Esedeth Mobile Patrol undergo extensive training aboard the militarized space station known as Point Cerrek, located just above Planet Esedeth's atmosphere.

Within Point Cerrek, select Glyans learn how to operate the newly developed Glyarmor and Variable Reflex Drivers in controlled environments, all under direct Traveler supervision. These soldiers also take part in a specialized OTR virtual program in conjunction with intense mental and physical conditioning.

The Esedeth Mobile Patrol stands as the first division to incorporate both VRD tech and non-Traveler Glyarmor use. 

Variable Reflex Driver: Guard Walker

Another VRD configuration that is put to heavy use on Planet Esedeth is the Guard Walker.

Operated by a single EMP soldier, the Guard Walker excels at traversing the ever shifting Orphormic Sands that cover so much of Esedeth. Some believe these strange sands actually possess a collective consciousness.

It is rumored that long ago the very surface of Esedeth swallowed the planet's first advanced civilization, leaving only scattered ruins as a warning to those who would dare trespass.

Variable Reflex Driver: Trekrunner

One of the most widely used Variable Reflex Driver configurations on Planet Esedeth is the Trekrunner.

Based on Rig Runner mechanics, the Trekrunner is capable of moving at extremely high speeds and possesses low altitude flight capabilities. 

EMP soldiers have been known to push the maximum limits of these fast moving and rugged Drivers, especially when facing the gravity defying "Quickships" commonly employed by the various relic hunters who feed on Esedeth's hidden treasures.

The Trekrunner form can be activated within any Variable Reflex Driver by connecting to a standard Glyan Blaster set in "data key" mode -as long as it contains the correct Trekrunner assembly code. 

All Variable Reflex Driver configurations follow the specific prime formation directive stored within a standard Glyan Blaster.

Esedeth Mobile Patrol

Following the fateful events that took place on Block Base Cerberus, the deactivated remains of Argen were quickly brought before Glyaxia Command to be dismantled and analyzed.

After an extreme combined effort by the same coalition that had created the Glyarmor, the fallen Gendrone leader's powerful data defenses were finally broken down. This action not only revealed more insight into the Villser Virus, but also unlocked the lost secret plans from the Old War that Argen had discovered within the Sendollest Buildstation. 

Within a short time, Glyaxia Command put the information gained from the defeat of Argen into action, reactivating and continuing the development of the long forgotten Old War technology for its own gain.

Soon, the same powerful core mechanical designs that Argen had used to create the Gendrone Force Defender were not only replicated but also repurposed for the production of new super charged Variable Reflex Drivers, manufactured specifically to fortify the different divisions under the direct control of Glyaxia Command.

Of these specialized divisions, the Esedeth Mobile Patrol was the first to employ the recovered Old War technology.

Located on the harsh desert world of Esedeth and serving under the watchful eye of Commander Awken, the Esedeth Mobile Patrol was created to guard the mysterious ancient ruins found scattered across the surface of the remote planet. With valuable artifacts being unearthed on a regular basis, EMP soldiers found themselves endlessly engaged in combat with a variety of scoundrels, pirates and trappers from all across the System.

Now reinforced with superior defensive capabilities, the Esedeth Mobile Patrol unknowingly supplies Glyaxia Command with the perfect stage for their latest machinations.
