Hey gang, time for some good news (finally)! After close to a month and a half of full blown mold making disaster we're happy to report that new molds are up & running and production is back in full swing!

To give you some background on what happened, the Grate molds we were running in early December were really close to dying and it was inevitable that new ones needed to get poured. We estimated that we could probably get 5 or 6 (maybe up to 10) or so out of them before they really started to break down, but we were nearly out of silicone. Then our buddy Pixel Dan did his review of the Grate and we broke all previous sales records (both online & con sales). We immediately got our silicone ordered and ran the molds until their inevitable demise. Just about the time the silicone arrived The Fwoosh also did a review, and again, we had a giant boost in sales. So, just like we've done 3 other times before, all the parts were set up on claybeds in molds boxes and poured. What happened next (and 2 more times after) we'd never experienced before. The silicone bubbled and rose like a souffle' dispite being vacuumed & put under pressure. We got in touch with our supplier and worked closely with them to figure out what was going on. They sent us a completely new kit of silicone only to get the same result. We also sent back the first kit so they could run tests on it in their lab and we went back & forth with them on all of this for over a month. Finally, we broke the code and the before & after results are what you see
above. We have to give a big thanks to Silpak, Inc for their amazing support in helping us find a solution! Not sure what we would have done without them.

So, with that said, backlogged orders will begin shipping this week and they'll ship out in the order they were received. Orders will reopen when the number of outstanding orders becomes a little more manageable. Thank you so much to all of you patiently waiting for your orders and to those of you patiently waiting to place an order! Everyone has been very understanding during what has been one of our most difficult times in the shop during our short time as a company. So thank you to you all!

Happy New Year from your pals at WCV!

The holidays were greeted with an unprecedented amount of orders! It seems since the new Castle Greyskull has been released, our grate kits have found a home! Thank you!

A combination of amount of orders, cold weather, and some material hiccups, we are still catching up from pre-Christmas sales. We were hoping to put the grates back up in the store on the first of the year, but there are already lots of customers still waiting for their kits. So hold tight, the grate kits will back in the store as soon as we wade through the backlog and get the existing orders taken care of!

Thanks again to everyone who has ordered one of our CG Dungeon Grate kits, your support has been a little mind boggling! Just wanted to post a quick update on sales and production. We're still pretty backlogged on orders and want to make some headway on outstanding orders before accepting anymore. We'll probably reopen orders in a week or two, thanks to those of you patiently waiting to throw your money at us! For those who did get an order in we just wanted to let you know that production has halted for a few days as new molds are being poured. It's about a 3 day process as the molds for the hands are in two parts and each side needs about 24 hours to cure (maybe a little more because of the cold tempuratures in our Seattle area shop space). Just know that we're working very hard to get these made and into your hands just as soon as humanly possible. Once again thanks for your generous support and happy holidays!

Wow, we have gotten a ridiculously amazing number of CG Dungeon Grate orders (http://tinyurl.com/ka2fkd4) in the past two weeks. For something we made two years ago, and have been peddling at conventions since, this boom was unexpected.

Thank you!

To catch up, we're making this item temporarily unavailable, just until the first of the year. We apologize for anyone hoping to have one our kits before the holidays, but at this point, we can't guarantee those that have already purchased them will get them that early.

We'll send the word out here when the grate kits are once again available.

Thanks for checking us out, and thanks to everyone that's ordered already, and those that would like to! You'll have your chance come January 1st. Until then, have a great holiday season!

Big thanks to Pixel Dan (aka Danny Eardley), who just released a great video review of our Dungeon Grate kit! He's also showing off the one and only blue Glow in the Dark grate in existence, so that's something pretty neat as well. Check out the video, and let us know what you think!

And as always, if you've bought a grate and painted it, we'd love to see what you did, so send us photos or your finished grates, bonus points if they are taken in the castle!

Now that we have the amazing Castle Grayskull playset, some talented people have already begun making some awesome custom add-on accessories! Join Pixel Dan for

We had a great time at Powercon this past weekend; huge thanks to Brian and Jeremy of Spy Monkey Creations for sharing their booth once again this year. Our new glow in the dark Dungeon Grates and prints were warmly received, and lots of folks got their first look at the production run Prince of Crystal figure as well as the in-process sculpt for the Prince of Magma. And last but not least, the newly relaunched Sectaurs.com got a ton of attention thanks to some amazing Sectaurs artifacts, production art, and unreleased series 2 production samples being on display. Thank you to everyone who stopped by the booth, old friends and new.

Sectaurs.com is the hub for all things Sectaurs on the internet. Details on the toys, episode guides, readable comics, character bios and exclusive content.
