Two of those creators, Gatchagrey and RoyalT, have cooked up something really special and they want your help. <!--more--><\/p>\n<p>Gatchagrey is the creator behind the world of <a href=\"http:\/\/bugshido.deviantart.com\/\" style=\"color:#ff0000\">Bug-Shido<\/a>. Gatcha&#8217;s still keeping the plot close to his vest, but we do know that it&#8217;s a feudal world where the various insect clans vie for resources and territory. We may not know the details, but Gatcha&#8217;s been keeping us riveted by designing tons of original characters and joining together with other artists to see those designs brought to life in a variety of styles. The result? A world rich in characters with tons of potential for action figures.<\/p>\n<p>You might know RoyalT from <a href=\"http:\/\/www.he-man.org\/forums\/boards\/index.php\" style=\"color:#ff0000\">He-Man.Org<\/a>, where he&#8217;s spent the last few years generously utilizing his sculpting talents to make &#8220;stactions&#8221; based on fan creations in the MOTU universe. His annual contests keep MOTU fans anxiously waiting to see the winners translated into 3-D form. If you&#8217;d like to check out some of those figures, RoyalT has a few unpainted kits still available for sale at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.dinnertablecreations.tolmanbros.com\/shopscript\/index.php?categoryID=82\" style=\"color:#ff0000\">Dinner Table Creations<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>If that&#8217;s not a recipe for a team-up, we don&#8217;t know what is&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.fantasticexclusive.com\/fforum\/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=3580\" style=\"color:#ff0000\">Gatchagrey and RoyalT present: The Bug-Shido Staction Character Contest.<\/a><\/P><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The premise is simple, fans will partake in various rounds of character selection until one Bug-Shido character comes out on top.
