About Toy2R:
Created out of an obsession for art toys and collectibles, Hong Kong based company Toy2R continues to break down the boundaries between product design, art and graphics.
 
Mastermind Raymond Choy founded the company in 1995 when he took his dream of a once owned toy store known as ‘Toy R’ (Short for ToyRaymond), which held countless quantities of limited edition toy collectibles,and turned it into an internationally recognized company. Toy2R was amongst the first to explore the potential of the designer toy, ultimately, instilling contemporary art into the vinyl toy market we all know and love today.
 
Our logo was taken from our most loved and cherished mascot ‘The Toyer.’ In 2001 Raymond released the skull-headed figure alongside what was to become the most ubiquitous toy canvas in the world, the Qee keychain figure.
 
Toy2R is a multi-faceted designer toy company. We take great pride in our determination at Toy2R to not only innovate but also inspire artists, designers and the world’s generation of youth alike. Our main objective is to provide limited/collectable designer/art toys at an affordable price, based on the coolest designs for the current international market.
 
Toy2R has received numerous internationally renowned awards for our outstanding achievements, winning the ‘Best Block Toy Award’; five consecutive years running, the ‘Most innovative Company Awards’, 2007 ToyAwards: Vinyl Toy of the Year from Plastic and Plush.com, Best of Award 2007 from aftimes.com, and many more.
 
Toy2R continues to grow and influence the world while expanding the definition of art. You will find our Qee creations in more concept stores, galleries and museums worldwide. Join the “Qeevolution” because everyone wants to collect more Qee!
