They made borderlands essentially. They did brother in arms too which most of them were pretty good if you like that sorta thing, the rest of their stuff ranges from forgettable to shady/scandalous.

Not sure what Chronicle will make from them, Triforce has made some stuff (Madam Moxy's guns). They had a statue for Zero from borderlands on their site which was taken down. Not sure what else. HW is a pretty cool property they bought as well when THQ shuttered, though their job with the remastered version was pretty lackluster I would still love collectibles from it, but I don't think that's likely :(

By far their most popular property is borderlands with duke nukem second (they bought duke nukem and released the last one, not the originals/duke nukem 3d). They're also releasing their own FPS style MOBA as well.

That's cool there are about 20 million people playing online right now. ;)

Not sure how they sold this too you but it's either a lie or not correctly phased. They may have 20 million accounts on shift (which are helpfully inflated by importing all the other users from previous registrations/services of gearbox) but no way they have 20 million concurrent users. LOL which is the most played game currently on the planet doesn't even have those numbers, though they get 27million active users a day. Gearbox's stuff is nowhere near LOL in active users though... For comparison Steam has 125 million "active users" which means they probably logged into the service in the last 3 months or somesuch, but their concurrent peak is only 8.9m.

So we may actually see a Chronicle Alien, it will just be from the least popular Alien game ever made. You could just always use some artistic license however (I.E make the movie version)

lol, not sure if that would fly. I have heard of some of these games, but I don't play anything anymore.

I'd be excited if it was GEARS OF WAR.

I tried to give Colonial Marines a chance, but it was bad.. Gears of War though was amazing back in the day!

I like both, but play neither currently ;p Either way your preference it is undeniable that far more people play LOL, not always a good thing to show how good a game is though :P

Aliens definitely won't, they wouldn't be licensed for it.

a Claptrap will sell insane numbers. there's really no question he alone will outsell Robocop, Ed & Caine. the kids love Claptrap

I doubt ;p Also neca makes a pretty good claptop already

Borderlands is up first and we will sell exclusively through Gamestop and Gearbox's website.

1/4 Moxxie and 1/6th Claptrap are up first from Borderlands 2.

Neca made a good Claptrap figure, and he already goes for good money at only 4 inches tall. imagine what a high quality statue will do.

Haha, of coursse Moxxie is first :P Everyone's favorite ^^

I have to wonder why Clap isn't 1/4th though. that really seems like an odd choice as he is pretty much the mascot of the series and he's already way smaller than everybody else. so even at 1/4 he still wouldn't be all that large.

Patience, we'll do claptrap in all scales including 1-1.

1/1 Claptrap? Now that's something I'd like to see.

Congrats on the new license. No interest here, no clue who these characters are.

Chronicle CS

It's okay, most of what we are doing is sold through Gamestop or the Gearbox website. The 1-1 Claptrap will probably be the only item we direct sale.

MrYac
06-05-2015, 08:14 PM
I've already sold a 1:1 Claptrap for you guys whenever he gets made ;)

Sounds good I hope you guys strike gold with this license, and then make more movie studio prop replicas!

We are going to the Licensing trade show next week and have many meetings with game developers...

That's awesome news! There's tons of potential for some great pieces based on games. Very cool way to expande Chronicles offerings.

My number one passion as far as collecting will always lean towards film based items, but art is art as far as I'm concerned and I can't wait to see what else might be in store.

Bring it on... :buttrock:

I know Neca had the Portal license, maybe they still do?
They've made some cool stuff, but mostly cheap toy-like items.

I'd LOVE to see high-end Portal stuff.

1/1 scale Turret... :drooling:

Can we get Jessica Nigri as Mad Moxxi for self-evident reasons?

Wouldn't mind seeing a MechWarrior license, or similar things like Earthseige 2 (what a game!!) I do love a good mech design...
