February 2013 - It's that time of the year again when throngs of toy fans, toy creators and toy buyers worldwide converge onNew York City for the International Toy Fair. For the third year in a row during this time, the art gallery TT Underground and Beerlao will be hosting the Four Horsemen as they bring you Toypocalypse 3: ExtraTOYrrestrial!!

This is the Four Horsemen's third annual gallery show featuring their work past, present and future, and this year Toypocalypse revolves around their newest licensed property - The Power Lords! The Power Lords was a toy line from the 80's that seemed to be a bit ahead of its time, but it has a very loyal fan base that have been hoping for its return. With the launch of the Power Lords website (http://www.PowerLordsReturn.com), it was announced that the Four Horsemen now have the license to create new Power Lords toys and other merchandise, and this show will reveal early prototypes of some of the upcoming Power Lords characters!

December 2012 - "The Mayan year 13.0.0.0.0 has begun. As foretold in 669 AD by the famous prophesy carved into Monument 6 in the Mayan site of Tortuguero, this date signals the return of the "Bolon Yokte Ku" -- The Nine Lords of Power. It is therefore, with great reverence, that the Four Horsemen of the Toypocalypse hereby proclaim the return of the Nine Power Lords and reveal the identity of a Tenth who dwells among us and has the power to save us all."

Four Horsemen Toy Design Studios are proud to announce the return of Power Lords: The Extra-Terrestrial Warriors action figure line.

It's been 30 years since world-reknowned sci-fi artist Wayne Douglas Barlowe originally designed the ground-breaking Power Lords toy line released by Revell. Four Horsemen Toy Design have just acquired the Power Lords license and signed Wayne Barlowe as a creative consultant to help bring the Power Lords back in action figure form.

March 28, 2012 - The New York Times has posted a follow-up interview with the Four Horsemen, to get their reaction to reader suggestions on the original interview.

If you missed it last week, the original interview (two pages) was at this link.

March 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.
