About this Platform
The first Dutch DIY character created by Flawtoys! The strangers are 7,7 inches tall and made of Resin. All of the Strangers are 100% hand-casted, even the packaging is made by hand. The Strangers are created in order to provide a unique customizing experience. I created The Strangers to provide a platform to express your beliefs, thoughts, favorites, stories and many more aspects. It is important to share these aspects with the world. Sander Dinkgreve, also known as Flawtoys is raised in Purmerend in the Netherlands. With a love and passion for creating products he started studying Product Design and developed his own touch to design. The love for Toys started at an early age collection Mario and Anime figures. This expanded into collecting more and more and ended in the Art(designer)toy world. Because of his passion to toys he created the DIY figures called The Strangers. With this unique figure the journey began into creating more unique toys and designs. The art of Flawtoys can be described as clean and calm. You can see this in all the Stranger and other customs toys made by Flawtoys. Check out the Flawtoys website and webshop for more information and a lot of his work www.Flawtoys.com 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. Founded in September 2011 by Lee McSweeney and Jayne Goddard, Collect and Display began it’s journey into the vinyl toy scene. A common interest in the history of the artists involved in the pieces brought the idea of Collect and Display and so the company was created. Selling solely Star Wars plush on eBay we set out to prove ourselves to the toy industry. By providing a second to none customer service we stood out to the avid EBay shoppers. Within months a website was born and our determination paid off as we took our first step towards the Vinyl Scene. Starting with the most simple but popular products including the wonderful DIY selection from Kidrobot we began to get noticed and began to sell out. New stock and new product variants were taken on rapidly. Lessons were learnt but sales kept us busy. 1 Year on and a handful of amazing suppliers under our belt we have a whole new website, a whole new selection of stock and a very busy office. Every week we are growing more and more and branching out with new products and to a whole new group of collectors. Our journey certainly hasn’t been the easiest but it has definitely
