Self-produced art toys are designer collectibles created and manufactured independently by the artist or small teams without the backing of a large toy company or mass-market brand. These toys are often highly personal, artistic expressions and are usually made in limited runs. Key Characteristics include independent creation where the artist is in control of the entire process from concept, sculpting, and painting to production and packaging. These are usually made in small batches, often 10–100 pieces, which adds to their rarity, made using materials like resin, sofubi (Japanese soft vinyl), or 3D-printed components. Designer Con is an annual art and design convention that smashes together collectible toys and designer apparel with urban, underground and pop art! I'm Shadoe delgado and I'm a San Francisco based artist. I sculpt, sketch, sew, paint and draw. My latest obsession is making custom toys. I really enjoy making toys based of my fine-art ceramic pieces. The pieces incorporate the subject matter of ego, personae, shadow, and masks. I'm doing the same thing with my toys however they're more colorful and playful.
