Submitted by News on Wed, 2012-03-28 14:49March 21, 2012 - The Four Horsemen have been interviewed by the New York Times!
We've seen a lot of interviews with the Horsemen over the years, and done a few ourselves, but this one is a bit different, discussing mostly their business model instead of which characters they are working on or what materials they are using to sculpt. It is part of a series of "case studies" about small businesses.
Here's the interview (two pages), and it looks like there will be a follow-up piece next week. The Horsemen's FANtastic Exclusive forum also has a thread going about the interview.

February 2012 - First, we wanted to thank everyone who attended and participated in Toypocalypse 2: Futuretro. Those of you who were able to submit a custom Outer Space Men figure - we couldn't be more grateful to you. Thank you SO much! We think the show was a tremendous success and we had a blast doing it. We can't wait to do it again next year! We're already stressing out about what we're going to try to do to top it.
The very first Cosmic Creators series of figures and special edition print did incredibly well at the show and we wanted to let everyone know that if you didn't get the chance to attend, there will be a very limited amount of them made available on Store Horsemen this Monday night (February 20th) at 9pm est.
As at the Toypocalypse 2: Futuretro show, these four unique figures and incredible print all together will cost $125.00 per set (plus shipping & handling), and once they're sold out, they're gone for good!
