Spotted Online – Fast Company and Star Wars Toy Design
Awesome! Fast Company has an article on Star Wars toy design where we get a peek at the process of making the action figures. The site interviewed Star Wars design director Steve Evans and the best I can add to the story is simply to say go read it right now!
“While children the world over will be opening their Kylo Ren action figures this holiday season—don’t worry if you don’t know the name; he’ll be a household name soon enough—the making of that action figure actually started 18 months earlier in a galaxy very, very near to Boston, in the model shop of Hasbro’s headquarters in Pawtucket, Rhode Island, where Evans overseas a team of six designers.”
