Toasterboy by Mongartoys
Like the "Toasterboys" you saw in my coverage of the Jakarta 7th Toys & Comics Fair? Well, I now have the details of the
"The Toasterboy Original Series " stands 3.5 inch with the toast on, and 3 inch without the toast. Priced at US$30 (sans shipping) and limited to only 50 pieces worldwide, each handmade toasterboy figure comes with a see through packaging, with 2 toast and certificate of authenticity. How to score one (or two) figures to doodle on? Email Edwin at themongar@gmail.com for details. (You might wanna ask him if there's an unpainted version if you intend to work on it tho).
Bali-born and raised Erwin Cahyono moved to and stayed in Bandung, while starting "Mongartoys" about 6 months ago n a tiny studio in Bandung, after quitting his previous job as an art director. The character "Toasterboy" was created and designed in early 2008, and launched in december 2010 at HELLOFEST, an animation festival and exhibition event. "All Mongartoys figure are resin and totally handmade . The sculpting, molding, casting, finishing, painting process and packaging are all handmade by me"
Toasterboy is a boy with the toaster head, humble, caring, happy and like to share the love to everybody. He loved to share the toast for everybody he meets and make everybody happy.
