Bigshot Noggles
Nouns funds a world famous toy maker to produce physical versions of their iconic square glasses, the “Noggles.”
Details
Bigshot Toyworks founder Klim is a talented designer and toy maker who has worked with countless brands and artists to bring their ideas to life. He’s an expert in his craft and has brought his talents to Nouns to build alongside a headless brand and help demonstrate the use case of CC0 artwork.
Klim has a lot of big dreams for Nouns, but the first are his Bigshot Noggle’s which have made their way to countless crypto and web3 related events in recent years. These oversized Noggles turn anyone into a Noun IRL. They’re used to start conversations about Nouns, and what Nouns is all about. They let people interact with something that is primarily onchain, in the real world, and help bridge the gap between the two. They’re immediately recognizable and have become a fun way to represent Nouns at events, in photos and on video.
The Bigshot Noggles were a labor of love~ A lot of time, work and collaboration went into getting these right. Bigshot was funded to produce phototypes, samples and large runs of the Bigshot Noggles. The Bigshot Noggles come in a beautiful box with clamshell packaging. They’re housed in the Bigshot Toys facility and available for purchase in multiple colors on BigshotToyShop.com.
Shop
The Bigshot team has worked and is working to secure new locations for Nounish products all the time. Currently two places not sold out of the Bigshot Noggles are:
Lo-Fi Noggles
Seeing a desire for low cost Noggles Klim created a paper version that could be handed out in mass called the “Lo-fi Noggles.” The flat, when folded, paper noggles could be handed out like a business card, tucked nicely into a plastic sleeve with a paper card — Information about Nouns could be found through QR codes embedded on that card.
The lo-fi Noggles have done a great job at allowing an entire group of people become instantly Nounish and have been seen across the world at countless events.
