Love these figures from when the urban vinyl movement was at its peak, blending street culture with toy design. Michael Lau and Jason Siu, both from Hong Kong, were key pioneers in the designer toy world. Their bold and innovative creations helped shape vinyl culture in the 2000s.
Lau’s iconic Gardener and Crazysmiles series captured street fashion and expressive character design. Siu brought music and urban influences into the mix with pieces like Gangs of the Monkey Playground DJ Bass and his Speak Your Mind speaker-toy series.
The images shown here were originally featured on the Kidrobot website in the 2000s, capturing the moment when these vinyl figures were making a global impact. You can still find some collectors selling them today, but they’re pretty rare. Does anyone own one?? and looking to sell lol
Art Toy Movement: History of Art Toys #41 Questioning Art Toy Gama #41
Can we pinpoint the moment when Michael Lau and Eric So turned street culture into tangible, collectible art, just as Takashi Murakami blurred the line between high and low culture—when Art Toys stopped being "just toys" and became a visual language that redefined contemporary art, design, and identity on a global scale?
¿Podemos considerar el momento en que Michael Lau y Eric So transformaron la cultura callejera en arte coleccionable, del mismo modo que Takashi Murakami desdibujó la frontera entre el "arte elevado" y la cultura popular—cuando los Art Toys dejaron de ser "solo juguetes" para convertirse en un lenguaje visual que redefinió el arte contemporáneo, el diseño y la identidad a nivel global?
