Sad news from the designer toy world…Chris Ryniak’s custom Stitch was stolen! It was displayed at the Mindstyle booth in SDCC 2009. If you see this piece, please contact Mindstyle (info@mindstyle.com). To the person who has this piece, please return it - no questions asked.

The elastomer is erupting. Colors flash high into the sky. This is the energy they had all been waiting for. No one can predict the path of the color vortex. But sooner or later they would all come under its inevitable color blast.

The paw! spectrum series is available as a rare artists edition. The paw! triptych is limited to 50 pcs (entire stampede). The tiny monkey rabbit is packed in an exclusive solid banana carrot box topped with a felt leaf. Open it and you will find paw! embedded in color erupting sponge. A unique coarse project.
