Sideshow Experience

Every journey begins with a single step, or an adventurous leap! Our process starts here, with research, concepts and designs.

Working from the design concepts, our sculptors dig in and get their hands dirty. The Waxworks is where heroes and icons take form – literally!

Double, double, toil and trouble! Duplicating original sculptures to create prototypes is achieved through the art of mold and cast.

Next, our master painters use a variety of advanced techniques to bring sculpted figures to life with color, contrast, texture and special effects!

Wardrobe! Our Cut & Sew experts pattern and tailor the perfect garments and accessories for our figures in every scale.

After all of the finishing touches have been applied, the Production team shepherds the prototypes through the manufacturing process and into limited edition pieces.

Lights, camera, action! In the Photo Lab, our photographers compose and deliver glamorous snapshots of the finished products.

Presentation is everything! Last but not least, our Graphic Arts Department designs packaging to enhance the collector experience.
