Super limited run of Trampt shirts & hats now onlineWe like making stuff and we hope you like buying it
My wife aka (Short Army) and I were playing around with this concept a while back of 'It's Not a Toy' when talking to friends about why exactly we have soooooo many toys on our shelves. She she doodled up some concepts and produced what is now some stickers and our new Glow-in-the-dark tshirt. We designed these pretty much for fun, and we probably won't do another run so you better act quick if you want one of these less than 50 available shirts.... [ read more ]

UME Toys is back for another NYCCRichard will be releasing toys & making signing appearances
Last year, we hung out for a bit with Richard Page and even grabbed some dinner with that charming bloke. Thankfully Rich will be back at NYCC this year with even more original resin pieces, inluding some new Dee-Dee, Martin Longbottom, Venom, magnets, keychains, prints and hopefully that sick Adventure Time set he sculpted recently. I was going to try and message him to get a rundown of what he's bringing but I think he's already in New York so that might be difficult. I guess we'll just have to talk to Rich at the Con on Thursday.... [ read more ]
