Behind the scenes

Back in the day, 2010/2011 we we’re all about sculpting by hand, Matt’s team was small, comprising of him and the Sculptor Caitlin Ashford, with TITAN team (Andrew, Matt and the super geeks!) the manufacturer, who we’re all working closely with the Doctor Who licence and pulling the strings to make it happen. It was a shot in the dark, a leap of faith, we went through much development and many meetings to get the first line of figures off the ground, a real labour of love.
We were working in clay, making head sculpts, casting resin, making changes all analogue and very time consuming. Sadly this was not a sustainable way of working for us, we needed to pick up the pace, and we sadly lost our sculptor Caitlin and connected with the UK’s leading design consultants Design Works, who are amazing 3D digital sculpting experts.

With Design Works on board It became a fast team of 3 working together, we had Matt designing all the figures, TITAN Merch on key decisions making and talking with the licensors and managing the projects movements, and all the sculpting was now being done on the computer and the turnaround was lighting fast.
We would send all our CAD data, Artwork, packaging designs to our manufacturing facility in China, and we have all our figures freshly made and packed and then shipped out would wide to distributors who then feed them into shops online and brick and mortar.
Since we started, it’s been a roller coaster of a ride, working with so many licences and so many figures. The collectors of course love us for making this happen, we love them for collecting.
2016/2017 Matt grew a member of the design team by 1, Niels de Jong joined and helps Matt as a body artist and useful assistant.
With all this in place, we not only want to develop the brand as we go, we want loads more figures, loads of great lines and lead from the front.
Of course funko and Kid Robot are cool, but being 3rd place to these guys is a great achievement in so little time. Watch this space 😉

Not Just the figure designs!

Matt Jones has worked on 90% of the packaging for TITAN Vinyl Figures
collections. With love, care and attention to details, Matt oversees the production of many of the TITANS figure packs, to make sure we always get the right kinda look, and stand out on the shelves.

Interviews

Matt’s been asked to do a few interview on the figures, and has taken some time out from his busy schedule to talk about what these figures means to him.
