The Kitty and The Mouse custom Mini Qee by Southerndrawl

This is your last opportunity to buy Southerndrawl's beautiful Toy2R Mini Qee x ThreeA mashup custom titled "The Kitty and the Mouse." If it doesn't sell this week, we are shipping it back to him and who knows what'll happen to it after that! Probably going to the scrap heap to be reworked into something new (seriously).
SD put a lot of work into this one: at 9 inches tall, it was by far the largest Mini Qee custom at the NYC Loves Qee event at Yoyamart in February. For sale here.

Beautiful time-lapse mural video by Willow & Pao


Our friend Willow from Milan, Italy, sends us this haunting, beautiful and fun time-lapse video of an outdoor mural he executed along with his friend Pao... the scene grows, changes and is painted over several times as the video progresses. VERY cool to see!

Jon-Paul Kaiser 5 inch Captain Sturnbrau Qee by Toy2R

Toy2R is pleased to offer this first look at Jon-Paul Kaiser's original 5" figure - Captain Sturnbrau from the mysterious ship, The Whispering Corsair.

Jon-Paul has created a unique collection of Toy2R figures using the mythos of the Whispering Corsair to amass his crew. First fans were introduced to the Olaf the Mute (in 8" Qee Bear form), then teasers of the the First Mate Nathaniel Vigo surfaced (in 5" Mini Qee form), now to be followed by their leader, Captain Sturnbrau!

Expected for release at this year's New York Comic Con, Toy2R unveiled the figure at the Grand Opening ceremony of the new Toy2R Shunde office in China. This is the first original production character for Jon-Paul and Toy2R is honored to have collaborated on this project. While there are even more projects being developed for JPK (The Forgotten and The Scribe Mini Qees), the Whispering Corsair collection is a wonderful tribute to the high seas and the mysterious that lie beneath the surface. Expect more surprises surrounding the Captain as the more information develops!
Pirate Captain, aka Captain Stūrnbrau.

Scourge of the Captain of the dreaded floating hulk; The Whispering Corsair. For time immemorable, land-lubbers and sailors alike dare not speak the ship's true name which slipped past memory and into legend.

For centuries the Captain had plied the oceans voyaging into new and undiscovered lands. They disappear for years at a time, only for stories to reach civilization of raids on settlements and pitiless attacks on ships.

No-one knows what dark sorcery keeps Captain Stūrnbrau and his unholy crew alive, only that they strive to fathom the answers to questions they have long forgotten...
