Galaxy Bob

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. Farmer Bob is a distinctive art toy character created by South Korean artist Jo Young Woon in 2014. Produced in collaboration with Finding Unicorn (F.UN), Farmer Bob has become a notable figure in the global art toy community, celebrated for his whimsical design and thematic versatility. Farmer Bob is characterized by his round, endearing face, often depicted with a calm or contemplative expression. His design exudes a minimalist yet charming aesthetic, making him easily recognizable among collectors. The character has been featured in various themed series, each presenting Farmer Bob in different imaginative scenarios.
