WASTEWORLD TOYS

Things That Go
Animatronic figures & vehicles that zoom, fly, shoot, launch, and whatever the verb is to use a flamethrower! All figures & vehicles come from the WASTEWORLD of one child's imagination. All ages welcome to play with the toys.

What inspired you to make this project?
Seeing toys that don't exist. Making vehicles that can pose figures for those that cannot pose them themselves. Seeing representation of all kinds of figures. Make things that can be enjoyed by anyone. Make toys that allow people to explore and experience things in new ways. Make toys accessible. Make toys bespoke. And cram so many details into everything that whether it's played with or sits on a shelf, every time you look at it you notice new details buried within.

What are some of the challenges you have encountered and how did you address them?
Trying to find people to play with my toys and take pictures or videos of them. I like making them, less so playing with them, much less so recording me playing with them. Always looking for collaborators.
