Super Bruised Banana Boo

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. FLABJACKS is the progeny of artist and illustrator Ton Mak. What began as escapist doodles quickly turned into its own fully formed world – a world of corpulent and odd folk, and of quirky inanimate thingymajigs brought to life. To date, FLABJACKS has collaborated with brands around the world including Gucci, Lexus, Nike and Swatch, making its distinctive and colourful mark throughout Asia, Europe and the USA.
