Certain designers take a more avant-garde approach, distorting characters or reimagining them in unexpected ways, such as grotesque versions of Ren & Stimpy or abstract interpretations of Rugrats. Collaborations with brands like Supreme and Uniqlo have resulted in unique Nickelodeon-themed toys and figures with high-end appeal.
