Exclusive: The Nacelle Company is creating deluxe Toy Stands, perfect for collectors looking to celebrate The Toys That Made Us!
Oni Press and The Nacelle Company are launching a crowdfunding campaign for The Art of the Toys That Made Us. The book captures the instantly recognizable designs, artwork, advertising, concept art, and more from the brands behind the smash-hit streaming series created by Nacelle founder and CEO Brian Volk-Weiss.
After three hit seasons (with two new seasons on the way), get ready to watch The Toys That Made Us rocket off of television screens and into a brand-new, lovingly designed set of deluxe, oversized hardcover art books debuting first on Kickstarter, alongside an eye-popping array of limited edition merchandise and collectibles. In the immortal words of every Saturday morning toy commercial: “Get them while supplies last!”
Packed with artwork, stories, and behind-the-scenes details assembled from The Toys That Made Us archives, this two-volume set is the ultimate accessory for the toy brands you know and love. Clocking in at roughly 250 pages each, this deluxe hardcover artbook set will take an eye-popping look at the world-class brands and awe-inspiring iconography that define The Toys That Made Us, including Hasbro’s G.I. Joe, Mighty Morphin Power Rangers, My Little Pony, Nerf, and Transformers; Mattel’s Barbie, Hot Wheels, Masters of the Universe, and Polly Pocket; and Nacelle’s own Biker Mice From Mars, Power Lords, Roboforce, Sectaurs, C.O.W.–Boys of Moo Mesa, Barnyard Commandos, and The Great Garloo.
In addition to the two-volume The Art of the Toys That Made Us set, the campaign will also feature a brand-new collection, Navelleverse: Year Zero, featuring the action-packed comic book adventures for the Biker Mice From Mars, RoboForce, Secaturs, Power Lords, and C.O.W.–Boys of Moo Mesa in a stunning oversized, deluxe hardcover. Collecting the first year of the blockbuster line of NacelleVerse comics published by Oni Press and Nacelle, Navelleverse: Year Zero features contributions by an all-star roster of creative talents – including Melissa Flores, Matt Hotson, Francis Portela, Juan Gedeon, V Ken Marion, and more – alongside a new, never-before seen wraparound cover by acclaimed artist Karl Kerschl.
BUT THAT’S NOT ALL! As part of The Art of the Toys That Made Us, the Nacelle Company and Oni Press are also taking fans and collectors back to the glory days of racing through the shelves at the local store with limited-edition, campaign-exclusive collectibles and bonus items – including official The Toys That Made Us lunch boxes, VHS tapes, toy stands, pin sets, and much, much more.
