Two cool toy ideas.
7, Nov 2011I’m a fan of Jeff Lamm’s Greasebat toys and prints. They hit the right note of funny for this kind of Big Japanese Monster. I need to get in on them.

mini Munnyworld
15, Oct 2009I haven’t worked on one in a while, but I still love the idea of a DIY vinyl toy. They’re terrific rainy-day projects with the kids. I’m going to have to try these new models out. Especially the giraffe.
