Materials

Typically, you will find art toys are made mostly from vinyl or resin.  But we have a different list of ITP friendly materials.

Wood

Very happy to announce the release of my new collaboration with @case_studyo this coming Monday. After last year's "Fuck a dollar and a dream" edition sold out in an hour, we decided to make a bigger one. "A Bigger Big Poppa" is a beautiful handcrafted wooden sculpture made in Belgium in an edition of 8 and 2 artist proofs. More info coming soon.
