POWER LORDS CUSTOMS & ART SHOW AT TOYPOCALYPSE 3!

The Outer Space Men Customs and Art Show was such an amazing success last year at Toypocalypse 2: Futuretro, that we decided to go ahead and do it again at the rapidly approaching Toypocalypse 3, but this time the subject matter of the show is the Power Lords!

Once again, we'd LOVE for you to submit your own artwork based on the Power Lords or extra terrestrial inspired customs or artwork to the show!

Toypocalypse 3 (details coming later this week) will begin on February 9th at 7pm, but we'll need any artwork or customs that you'll be submitting for the show to be delivered to us by Feb. 1st, 2013 (deadline for application & dimensions - Jan. 18th).

For all of the details about the Power Lords Customs & Art Show, just go to PowerLordsReturn.com or click HERE to be taken directly to the page containing the submission form.

Can't wait to see your Power Lords creativity!!

IMPENDING FAN-EX MESSAGE BOARDS SHUT DOWN!

In the last few months the Fantastic Exclusive forums have been targeted by a series of malicious hacker attacks with the worst attack occurring on 12-21-12. This attack seems to have also included the Four Horsemen being locked out of admin abilities on their own forum. It now seems like this is a deliberate attack, rather than just spam-bots sneaking in here and there.

Despite our best efforts, the Forum no longer offers the level of security necessary to protect it from hackers and self-replicating spambots, so other than this particular forum, we are shutting these boards down and we are currently in the process of revamping the site using a different platform. We apologize for any inconvenience this causes, but we are going to try to archive some of the existing threads and topics to be added to the new forums. Keep your fingers crossed.

We expect the new site to be up and running by February 9th, 2013 if not sooner. In the meantime, while you are waiting for the revamp, please come check out some of the Four Horsemen related websites listed below, including our recently-launched  site celebrating our newest licensed property, the Power Lords!

POWER LORDS RETURN!!

"The Mayan year 13.0.0.0.0 has begun. As foretold in 669 AD by the famous prophesy carved into Monument 6 in the Mayan site of Tortuguero, this date signals the return of the "Bolon Yokte Ku" -- The Nine Lords of Power. It is therefore, with great reverence, that the Four Horsemen of the Toypocalypse hereby proclaim the return of the Nine Power Lords and reveal the identity of a Tenth who dwells among us and has  the power to save us all."

Four Horsemen Toy Design Studios are proud to announce the return of Power Lords: The Extra-Terrestrial Warriors action figure line.

It's been 30 years since world-reknowned sci-fi artist Wayne Douglas Barlowe originally designed the ground-breaking Power Lords toy line released by Revell. Four Horsemen Toy Design have just acquired the Power Lords license and signed Wayne Barlowe as a creative consultant to help bring the Power Lords back in action figure form.

Getting to work with Barlowe on the much-anticipated return of Power Lords has been the culmination of a life-long dream for Four Horsemen co-founder Eric Treadaway. Four Horsemen Studios are currently hard at work creating the new Power Lords prototypes that will be revealed during the Power Lords-themed Toypocalypse 3 Art Exhibit occurring in New York at TT Underground Gallery in February during New York Toy Fair 2013.

To get updates about upcoming figures and events as well as a complete history and our ever-growing archival galleries for Power Lords please keep checking PowerLordsReturn.com

FOUR HORSEMEN STUDIOS BACK UP & RUNNING!

Unfortunately, because of Hurricane Sandy, Four Horsemen Toy Design Studios was without electricity and internet for a few days and had to be shut down. Some of us here still probably won't have electricity or internet for the next week or so at our homes. Because of this, all of our shipping schedules are delayed and the shipping companies we use are also somewhat backed up. We're trying as hard as we can to get all of the recent orders processed and shipped out to all of our waiting customers as quickly as possible. Your patience and understanding as we get things back on track here would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

PLEASE HELP BUILD CASTLE GRAYSKULL!!

One of the main things we've dreamed of doing since we very first pitched the idea of Masters of the Universe Classics to Mattel is to get the chance to re-create one of the most iconic playsets of all time, CASTLE GRAYSKULL! Well, the time has come, and we've got the chance to not only re-create Castle Grayskull so that it fits in with the level of detail and styling of Masters of the Universe Classics, but this thing's gonna be HUUUUGE! Plus, we're going to include all of the features and fun details of the original, and try squeeze in as much cool new stuff as we possibly can as well.

Here's where you all come in. Unfortunately, this incredible playset isn't going to be cheap to purchase and we understand that. But the price Mattel's going to be selling it for is the only way we're going to be able to make it and get it into the hands of Masters of the Universe fans. Mattel has to have a certain amount of pre-orders before they can even have us start building the thing. If they don't meet the minimum number of pre-orders required to set this process in motion by the deadline, then Castle Grayskull for the MotU Classics line will never happen. It's as simple as that.

So, obviously what we're asking from you is, if you can afford it, get over to MattyCollector.com right now and pre-order this monstrosity of a playset before it's too late. All of the details can be found at this link: http://www.mattycollector.com/DRHM/store?Action=DisplayProductDetailsPage&SiteID=matty&Locale=en_US&Env=BASE&productID=258165100 

You can also watch Mattel's own Scott (Toy Guru) Nietlich show off a foam-core mock up of the castle in a video he made recently by clicking here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9GpAEhXAmDs  Even though the mock up is very two dimensional, it'll give you a pretty good idea of just how massive this thing will be when it's finished!

We're pretty darned excited about the possibility of making this beast of a toy and we'll promise you right now that if we get to create Castle Grayskull for you, we're going to put every ounce of heart, soul and creativity into it that we can to try to make it worth every hard earned penny that you're going to be spending on it. We've already been going over the blueprints and planning our direction of attack so when (not if) Mattel gives us the green light we can dive right in. Now all we need is you. This time you truly DO have the power! Thanks in advance.

STORE HORSEMEN NYCC CELEBRATION SALE HAS ENDED!
