The proposal is for Nouns DAO to fund Stage 1 of 2 of NOUNish Friends, a 10,000 run of modular Nounish collectibles designed, created, and distributed by Bigshot Toys. Klim and team have been working on this for months (along with other Nounish projects, like Propsal 56 for Fun Noggles) and they not only have extensive expertise in creating collectibles like this but also have a specific vision for their NOUNish Friends line beyond just making them but getting them distributed in high signal locations and in front of forward thinking people.
What is the NOUNish friends project?
A modular collectible physical toy series based on Nouns and created by an award winning creative studio. Uniquely crafted in a new look and style that will showcase the fact that “nounish” does not just mean “pixelated”. Unique packaging and interactive elements will make this series stand out above all other figures in this format.
STAGE 1 (DEVELOPMENT & PRE-PRODUCTION)
Stage 1 Cost Estimates
Klim and his team have been working on this project over the past 3 months and the final designs are fun, playful, modern and we feel represent NOUNs well in this funky new style. The sculpts are ready to go but we have gone as far as we can without help.
A more robust description of the proposal dealing with production costs and beyond is in the Google Docs.
Stage 1 AND Stage 2 Cost Estimates
Who is Bigshot?
Bigshot Toyworks is an award-winning creative studio with over 25 years of experience in the design, licensing and merchandising space, We have worked with some of the top brands and IPs in the world innovating and delivering award winning executions. In both the physical retail, advertising and digital space.
Bigshot Toyworks is trusted by industry giants like Turner Network, Disney and Bungie, and independent creators and artists to bring their unique visions to life. For 25 years this has meant creating and delivering physical goods like toys, collectibles and consumer products, as well as the related 2D and 3D digital files necessary for ad campaigns, animations, commercials, billboards, activations and experiences of all shapes and sizes.
While crafting assets and collectibles for clients, Bigshot has also developed and produced a wide range of original collectibles under our own label, and sold them both DTC and B2B through our own shop and various distribution partners. Years of community engagement, several successful Kickstarters, booths at shows like New York Comic Con, DesignerCon, Licensing Expo and other events have allowed us to service an impressive range of happy customers and clients.
Within the past few years, the unique capabilities of Bigshot have been deployed more and more frequently by NFT project creators as they put out a mix of physical and digital collectibles under their IPs. In 2022 the lines between the physical and the digital blur more each day as consumer behavior and the definition of what is “collectible” change daily.
Bigshot is uniquely positioned to help IP holders and creative organizations engage and thrill their communities by straddling the physical and digital collectibles spaces.
