    I apparently missed the interview with the designer. Now I’m curious. Have a link?

    Real interesting read. Also I take no credit for finding this, it was another member of the forum, but I forget who it is to credit.

    If you want Studio Ox, then go get a cheap Toyworld Spanner. It's straight Studio Ox.

    Yeah that’s probably my second favourite springer on the market. The Zeta rerelease could be great if it ever happens.

    Movie shelf coming along nicely, Saltus is fantastic! Transformation for a triple changer is super enjoyable, and he looks the part. Props to MMC, when opening the box I was surprised about the weight of this fella. Recommended if your on the fence.

    Studio Ox or no, that figure is butt ugly. I think Saltus nails the Ox face sculpt though.

    Seems like a real talented guy with strong vision. Is there a list somewhere of toys he’s designed? The TFWiki only shows official Takara ones.

    TFWiki sticks to offical TFs by default. No 3P documentation whatsoever.

    Thanks for that, I totally forgot Kubalsky was with MMC. That guy’s work has always been amazing. His origins in origami are so neat, and his design for Classics Mirage still has *so* much personality in it.

    Guy is a legend, as far as I’m concerned. Worked for Takara, too, not Hasbro.

    Quite the article. I've unknowingly been a long time fan of his work. The pic they chose for the article makes it seem like he completed Squidward's art class at Bikini Bottom Community Center. I can hear Squidward saying... "Art is suffering!"

    Wait really? Do we know that for sure?

    Guess he went from Classics Mirage to MP Mirage in 10 years. Neat-o.
