About this Platform
http://sketchbot.blogspot.com/ Brian Flynn is an artist, designer, and the founder of Super7, a toy and collectibles company known for its retro-inspired action figures, sofubi, and pop culture collectibles. With a background in graphic design and a deep passion for kaiju, punk rock, skateboarding, and vintage toys, Flynn has played a key role in shaping the modern designer toy movement. Under his leadership, Super7 started as a niche magazine about Japanese toys before evolving into a full-fledged toy company producing original designs and officially licensed figures. Flynn’s design philosophy often emphasizes nostalgia, high-quality craftsmanship, and a love for obscure pop culture references, resulting in toys that appeal to both hardcore collectors and casual fans. Beyond Super7, Flynn has also collaborated with various artists and brands, helping bridge the gap between art toys, mass-market collectibles, and underground design culture. His influence continues to grow as Super7 expands its offerings, from ReAction Figures to high-end Ultimates! figures, keeping the spirit of indie toy-making alive in mainstream markets. myplasticheart presents the the Sketchbot Custom Show, the official launch of the new figure by NYC artist/animator Steve Talkowski. 50 artists and designers will have their hand in creating original designs for the Sketchbot platform.
