The date for this festival must be marked out on most toy fanatic's calendars, as it's their opportunity not only to meet some of the top artists & designers around at the moment - but also to bid for rare limited edition toys!


Simone Legno of Tokidoki (the art label) fame, was the guest artist, asked to design the theme and banner for the event.

I Gotta Thing for These Twins...

...so I thought I'd add 'em in.


Nina Sky's Nicole with a new(ish) take on the mohawk - I like it, it can tick both the "punk" & "preppy" boxes.

Make Her Say - Kid Cudi ft. Kanye West & Common



Feeling the overall cool, colour tone used in this video - I got time for this kind of grown, easy listening hip-hop.

TRON: Legacy - Did Disney just get Dark!?!

The future looks like it's here...




Original TRON trailer from 1982 - I was too young to appreciate the movie, but even back then the graphics had me!




Looks something like a Jackson5 video!

"When you see me dressed tripped out it’s because I grew up in a certain era. I’m mixing and matching different extremes. So when you see me its not some random craziness—there’s a history behind all that stuff. And for the record I’m not a fashionable person. Fashion is a pre-packaged style. I’m more a style person. It’s about being original and being an individual". Taz Arnold '07

So for those that don't know, ya better get to know!
