Kaiju Kaos Smackdown
BAILEY RECORDS ANNOUNCES OPTITHULHU MINIFIG FOR KAIJU KAOS: SMACKDOWN!
Grove City, OH, February 4, 2013 – Bailey Records today announces the release of a new minifigure for KAIJU KAOS: SMACKDOWN named Optithulhu in a variety of limited edition colors coming February 4th.
“Since it’s conception, I’ve dreamed big with KAIJU KAOS and have wanted to tear down traditional barriers within the industry,” said Bryan Borgman, Bailey Records’ owner and KAIJU KAOS miniatures game designer. “Besides making a miniatures game using colossal monster miniatures, we have a full-length soundtrack, and now collectable, designer toys that are fully compatible with KAIJU KAOS in addition to highlighting their own special version of the game called SMACKDOWN.
“Optithulhu is an original design I sculpted for the Eldritch Horrors faction of KAIJU KAOS. Inspired by Lovecraftian designs, Optithulhu is a multi-eyed, hairy, tentacle monster ready to follow Cthulhu’s call and take on those that do not obey.
“Through our Storenvy shop I will be offering up a variety of colors for Optithulhu. Each color is limited to 10 castings. In addition to these limited colors, a “gamer gray” version will be made available in unlimited quantity initially at Storenvy and then permanently at KaijuKaos.com and at gaming and comic book conventions. The first offerings are:
- Snow White (opaque white resin) for $8 each
- Green Ice (clear emerald green resin) for $10 each
- Gamer Gray (opaque gray resin) for $8 each
These minifigures will be released online on Monday, February 4, 2013 at 8pm EST exclusively at baileyrecords.storenvy.com.
About KAIJU KAOS: SMACKDOWN
KAIJU KAOS is a tabletop miniatures game where two or more players pit their hand-painted metal and resin armies against one another. KAIJU KAOS is a strategic skirmish game. It’s not just a matter of lining up models on the table and the person who goes first is the winner. KAIJU KAOS requires cunning and adaptability because at any time an opponent can drastically alter the current situation with an unexpected action or a lucky roll of the dice. A solid strategy and good implementation combined with a little luck will enable the weakest troopers to bring down the mightiest monster. There are various unnamed troopers and specialists to build armies with, but the true heart of KAIJU KAOS is in the characters – whether they’re human, Kaijin, or colossal Kaiju bent on destroying everything in their path.
KAIJU KAOS: SMACKDOWN is a “death match” variation of KAIJU KAOS where players quickly battle using one or more 45mm tall character models on a 2×2 foot tabletop. The object of the game is to be the last model standing by defeating your enemies. Every faction in KAIJU KAOS, along with a healthy dose of Mercenaries, will be represented in SMACKDOWN.
New character models will be released regularly through our webstore at Acheson Creations. Rules, stat sheets, and official game aides can be purchased at www.WargameVault.com.

BAILEY RECORDS ANNOUNCES KAIJU KAOS: SMACKDOWN SERIES 1, SET 1 MINIFIGS!
Grove City, OH, January 9, 2013 – Bailey Records today announces the upcoming release of KAIJU KAOS: SMACKDOWN and our first set of limited edition minifigures designed for collectors and gamers alike.
“Since it’s conception, I’ve dreamed big with KAIJU KAOS and have wanted to tear down traditional barriers within the industry,” said Bryan Borgman, Bailey Records’ owner and KAIJU KAOS miniatures game designer. “Besides making a miniatures game using colossal monster miniatures, we have a full-length soundtrack, and now collectable, designer toys that are fully compatible with KAIJU KAOS in addition to highlighting their own special version of the game called SMACKDOWN.”
“When I decided I wanted to try and break into the designer toy market with original ideas, I sought out the talented Steven Patt (aka oOMoSOo) at Papagrim Toys to be my collaborator and primary sculptor. In early 2012, Steven released his own limited edition minifigures in a series called Nuked! and he has a familiarity with tabletop gaming. Over the past several months we have been working behind-the-scenes in preparation for this launch. On Friday you will see the first fruits of our collaboration when we release:
- Orcco the Everfolk, the Martial Artist Orchid Titan champion
- Earwig the Insectien, the Scout Specialist Battler Beetle
- Atticus the Wicked Werewolf, the vicious Saboteur!
“Each set of minifigures will contain one of each character sculpt and the initial release will be limited to 40 sets cast in black resin. In addition to sculpting, Steven is handling all the production of the initial release. The sets will be released online this Friday evening at 8pm EST at baileyrecords.storenvy.com for $25.00 a set. Once the limited edition black sets sell, regular production of each figure will resume at Acheson Creations in our standard gray color. More limited edition colors may appear from time to time if demand warrants. More sets will be released quarterly throughout 2013.”
