What is Cable Guys?
Cable Guys is a range of officially licensed character figures made by EXG Pro (Exquisite Gaming Ltd). Each figure is a detailed character sculpt, posed to hold your game controller or phone, so your favourite character keeps your desk tidy and your device on display.
Every Cable Guys figure is produced under an official character licence. That means the Spider-Man on your desk isn't a knock-off. It's the real thing, authorised by Marvel.
How do Cable Guys work?
Rest your controller or phone in the figure's hands and it holds it upright, ready to grab. When you need the device, just lift it out. No clips, no fuss.
Most Cable Guys stand around 8 inches (20cm) tall, so they work as desk collectibles in their own right, even when they're not holding anything.
