New York Toy Fair 2010 : Thank You!

BIC Buddy — Fri, 26 Feb 2010 21:33:31 +0000

With the start of Chinese New Year, Bic Plastics set out to claim it’s place in the toy industry by exhibiting in this year’s New York Toy Fair, one the largest toy industry trade shows held around the world. Despite Toy Fair’s lack of designer vinyl toy exhibitors, Bic Plastics showed itself to be a relevant force in today’s toy industry showcasing mass market products such as The Quackin’ Heads along with current production projects and prototypes by well-known artists/designers: Tristan Eaton, Marka27, and Queen Andrea.

Overall Bic Plastics’ first year exhibiting at New York Toy Fair was a great success! Thank you to everyone who stopped by the booth to inquire about current, future, and prospective projects.

(Guest, Tristan Eaton, Marco Wong, & Marka27)
