Collect3d just put together a nice blog post about our newest vinyl release, Chef Barski. Amazing feeling to be posted among the likes of Frank Kozik and Kid Robot!

TOYSREVIL had a nice write up about Chef Barski as well!

Besides being our latest toy, Chef Barski has even more meaning to me… he was my first teddy as a kid. “Barski” (photo above) was originally a gift that my father gave my mother. It was then passed onto me when I was a baby. I think having a teddy made me a lot more creative… I always imagined he was real. I think around when I was 15 (when it wasn’t cool to have stuffed animals anymore) I didn’t want to put him in the closet cos I was afraid I’d hurt his feelings!

Also, we have been receiving a lot of compliments on the Chef Barski packaging. I am very proud to say it was actually done by my girlfriend Martha! She’s currently studying Graphic Design in her final year at University. She has never been one to look for attention but I feel credit is certainly due… Martha did an amazing & professional job. 

Lastly, our good friends at IAMTHETREND wrote a review on our new winter drop! These dudes rule and make sure to check them out on Justin.tv.

I think this drop will give you a very good sense on things to come. The Chef and I have been working really hard to bring out the best. We won’t serve burnt toast.
