The BMOG Toys bear mold was designed by Trent Troop. He said he came up with the idea of BMOG Toys when playing with a Generation 1 Top-Heavy toy. He also says it was inspired by Glyos. He designed Ursenal in Studio 3D. The hexagons in its design are inspired by honeycombs. Early names for Ursenal included Bruination and Bear Made of Guns. The name Bruination was abandoned due to it's similarity to a character owned by another company.
