Exciting News!!!

We haven't been idle: I promise! Have you checked out our Facebook page yet? Cube Dudes were sadly sucked in to that cult as well, so if you should check it out.

We've also announced that we will be at Victoria's Ultimate Hobby and Toy Fair on October 14th.



We'll have our 3 Limited Edition Dudes available for sale (the Tick, Cthulu, and 1960's Batman), as well as some of our one-of-a-kind prototypes on display for all to see!

The Tick

Cthulu

1960's Batman

The Toy Fair also hosts a silent auction, with proceeds going to support the MS Society, and we plan on creating some one-of-a-kind Dudes to donate to the auction. Let's just say I'll love it when this plan comes together!

So Cube Dude life right now is busy trying to get everything ready. It SEEMS like October is quite a ways off, but as we're just getting ourselves off the ground, and this will be our first Toy Fair, we have a LOT that we want to do to get ready: Suggestion box, display case for Prototypes, display stand for Sale Dudes, design and build Dudes for silent auction donation, finish building the 1960's Batmans.... not to mention designing business cards and possibly even t-shirts for ourselves to wear at the show....

Busy busy busy.

Life is good!

Vegas Version Cthulu

Ok, so the Cthulu Dudes are built, and I didn't have enough time to do a full set up of the Vegas Version, but I did get a few photos. Sorry for the lack of staging, but look! He's sparkly!

Vegas Version Cthulu

Shiny!

Cthulu's are now available at Cherry Bomb Toys in Victoria, and when we dropped of these Dudes, they still had a few Ticks available! Don't miss out!

Creating a Great Old One

So, as mentioned, the winner of the Favourite Cube Dude vote was Cthulu, so we are making a limited edition run for sale.

Let the Cutting Begin!

Lots and LOTS of cutting = lots of recycling

And once it's cut, be careful not to tear it
