Wtf? We're back on Blogspot???

Hey everybody! 

Okay so apparently something is going on with the entirety of Indiemade.com within the last few days and that's done a number on www.bahglenncreations.indie-made.com website. Thankfully I got everyone's orders processed from the April 8th Ston'emm drop before the website went bananas.

You guys can still go to the site, but as per Indiemade themselves, you have to add a hyphen between Indie and Made (Ex: .indie-made.com) to view the site.

I have no idea how long this will be an issue, so I decided to jump back here to the old Blogspot account and use it as another website to update people on things. 

We put alot of work into the Bahglenn Creations site over the years and I'd hate to lose it, but this gives me an opportunity to work on that Shopify alternative store I was talking about here and there. 

Keep your eyes peeled here, I'll try to update the blog with some cool stuff from the archives and such.

Updates! What is the status of this Blog??!?!?


Okay, unbeknownst to me until recently, this blog is full of missing images due to Photobucket gltiching out or changing their polices for free accounts. Hence 95% of the images in this blog are just not there anymore. The process of restoring a hundred or so entries will take time BUT we have an actual website now over at www.bahglenncreations.com (how have I NEVER made a blog post about this in all these years????) where a lot of the photo comics are starting to appear.

New resin projects from us ARE finally in the works though which is a great feeling after being stagnant for roughly 5 years. So stay tuned over on our website for updates as I get them. Unlike our last snafu, I am revealing nothing until I get resin castings in my hands.

We're BACK! Wait, when did we leave??

Okay, so things have been going a bit rough over aboard the U.S.S. Bah'glenn Creations over the last few years. Our inventory leftover after the 2013 New York Comic Con has continued to dwindle and now we have very little left to sell. Numerous attempts to re-start our resin custom operation has fallen on it's face multiple times due to unforeseen errors and it's not be fun.


Right now, Bah'glenn Creations still wants to bring you new and fun creations of ours, but using resin casting to do so just is not in the cards anymore. We're perusing other avenues such as 3-D Printing, but even that is not definite as of this writing. I have been sewing some plushies up, so maybe I'll try that soon. The toys for us are just really very much in flux right now, unfortunately.


So, what does this mean for Bah'glenn Creations and you, the consumer? Well we've been diligently working behind the scenes on the completion of a Role-Playing Game, something I've been toying around with since at least 2003. It has gone through countless renovations between then and now, but it's final form is exactly what I was hoping for all those years ago.


This Role-Playing Game will be a physical book, not a video game (at least, not yet- who knows what the future holds?) and we're hoping to have out before the fall. Think August or September if things go well and there are no more hiccups (plllleeease no more hiccups...). I will not reveal too much about it until the book is finished and in my hands, such as the name and other misc. things, but you will be able to use any toys (action figures, figurines, vinyl toys, plushies, etc.) you have handy, create game stats and use them in this game.


We've been play testing it for quite awhile and the concept is fun, the rules are light (but still engaging enough for the non-casual gamer) and it does not take forever to play or learn. We do not want to follow the trend of gigantic, 300+ page textbook-like rule books that RPGs seemed to have adopted over the decades, we want it to be a sign of something new and from what we've learned from the people we've shown it to, it's something that people have very much been looking for.


It's coming along, slowly but surely, and I hope to have more to show you as the days/weeks go on. Maybe we'll have some teaser artwork from the game to share, keep your eyes peeled here & over on Facebook for more info, we can't wait to show it to you. ^_^

9 months?!? Time for an Update!!

Wow, I really haven't updated here in a while. It's scary to think that someone could have had a baby in the time it's taken me to post an update. That's NINE MONTHS without so much as a peep out of this blog. Let me try to explain why:

Between now and NYCC 2012 when we had our first Ston'emm release, we've been VERY busy. Our 3 year old cat Whedon died very unexpectedly about 4 days before Halloween & the day before Hurricane Sandy hit us here on Long Island. So, it was just a huge disruption in everything we had planned for the Ston'emm and future releases.

Things were calmer, but still sad around our house due to our loss but we marched onwards as best we could. February we attended Toy Fair 2013 and that blizzard hit us causing further set backs. Plus, immediately after Toy Fair, we had to move out of our apartment of 3 years and scramble to find a new one. Luckily, we did and now we're all moved in with our good friend & collaborative artist Dex Antares in a really nice apartment. 

After that insanity was dealt with things finally started to settle down & we began work on our toy line again. We've actually launched our own website over at Bahhglenncreations.com and will be moving everything from this blog over to our new site. It's taking a little while as it's about 4 years worth of postings AND Google deleted all my images so now I have to rebuilt it from the ground up. 

*le sigh*.

So this should (in theory) be one of the last times I post on this blog. We've had a good run here, but we're evolving to the next step of our stories & custom figures and the new site just has so much more to offer. It's still under construction, but once it's up & running you'll be able to read bios for ALL the Ston'emm customs that were released during NYCC 2012; that's roughly 30+ character bios. We're also having a new Ston'emm release at the 3rd Annual Long Island Toy Show which should include 2 new Ston'emm colorways as well as some other surprises. 

Once we get closer to the show, be sure to keep checking Bahglenncreations.com for updates and new photos.

Until then, take care everybody and see you on the new website!! :-D

It's NYCC 2012 & Ston'emm Time!!

In what seems like forever, NYCC 2012 is here & the Ston'emm have been revealed completely to the world. We'll be at the Onell Design booth again this year, booth #3216, but this year we'll be there all 4 days, not just Fri-to-Sun. I'll be hanging out at the booth the majority of the con even if I'm not scheduled for selling things. It's amazing how much fun Beth & I have just going to the show & seeing everybody.

Special shout-out to my wife Beth who stepped things up a notch & worked like a mad-woman to get these figures painted. She did an amazingly sick job and if you like the way the ston'emm came out, make sure to tell her as I know she'll appreciate the feedback.

Also, I'd wanted to wait until i was 100% we were a-Go for this but this is especially exciting news: We will have a brand new Alien Mercenaries Fall Special #2 (#1 being released at NYCC 2010)! Now, we wanted to go BIG with the new comic, and we did.

Each comic has:
-Full color photos
-An awesome cover drawn & colored by Jared DeCosta (Redjarojam on the OctoberToy forums)
-24 pages of content including 2 different photo-comic stories, character bios & more

Each book will sell for $5.00 and will be on sale with the Ston'emm & Canne'boid figures at the show.

Oh and without further ado, the pics!

General My'diss & his Metallic Military (Voltrokk, Sparklestone & Skystone)

Skystone, Ace Aster-Craft Pilot


Skullstone, the Mad and his evil Ston'emm Minions (Sm'ssh, Waveshokk, Gruh'ssh & Pul'vorgg)
