Hi my name is Karl Altstaetter and I am comic book creators, toy designer and all around creative cat. I often get asked the question. "How do you make a toy?" It's a tough question to answer because the creation of toy has many different routes and there are many different meanings for what represents the end product for a toy. Is it a collectable toy? Mass market? Direct to consumer? Lots of different ways a toy can get from the creators mind into the hands of the person that will spend hours having fun and playing with the toy.
This blog will focus on the creation of one particular concept. This concept is called Gekisen Warriors. over the next few months I will detail my efforts from a design and creation perspective as well as the business side of the equation. I look forward to sharing this experience with you and ultimately involving you in the creative and business experience of making Gekisen Warriors a reality.
