About this Venue
Mondo is pop culture brand, built for collectors. We work with incredible artists who share our passions to create posters, soundtracks, toys, and more – products that share a rare, unexpectedly vivid and timeless quality. Mondo humbly began as a quasi-bootleg t-shirt shop located in the basement storage hallway of a single-screen movie theater. In 2007, Mondo began working with major artists and studios to create beautifully designed licensed products. We started with posters, then soundtrack LPs, and finally toys and other items, and have blossomed into the ever-expanding hydra of entertainment collectibles that we are today. In 2022, we joined the Funko-verse, helping us to continue bringing fans and friends our curated approach to pop culture.DesignerCon is an annual art and design convention that smashes together collectible toys, customs, plush, designer apparel and so much more with urban, underground and pop art! We are a celebration of all aspects from the world of design.bio raised by feral robot wolves in the backwoods of northeastern pennsylvania and nourished on a steady diet of comic books, arnold schwarzenegger movies and swedish fish, tom whalen has a high-pitched, metallic voice in his head that compels him to endlessly churn out all sorts of vectorized madness. infatuated with all things giant, japanese and city-destroying, tom is a confessed monster junkie who cannot wait for earth to be overrun by either zombies, werewolves or vampires so that he can field test the wooden-stake-firing chain gun that he’s been working on in his basement for the past 38 or so years. he also adores kittens. introduced to graphic art by the likes of ditko, lee, mcfarlane, and simonson at an early age, tom formally studied illustration and design at kutztown university before working as a graphic designer and an editorial illustrator. he has recently completed projects for the black keys, topps, mondo, idw comics, the hub, wired, scientific american, pc world and nicktoons.Mondo Art Toys is a collectibles brand known for producing high-quality, artist-driven vinyl figures, statues, and sofubi toys based on pop culture, cult films, comics, and horror franchises.
