Dream In Plastic is gearing up to hold it's third annual Custom Toy Show, running from June 8 to July 12.
"Toy artists have creative license to create any creature they desire. We encourage YOU to try your hand designing your own toy from a blank figure such as MUNNY, Qee, etc. However, you can really create a toy from anything you like. Cut up other toys and melt them together, sew your toy a little jumpsuit, take apart your VCR and use the pieces - whatever. Multiple toy submissions are welcome." - Dream In Plastic

This show is open to anyone and any toy platform, so for any artist looking to their work featured in a  gallery show, download the Dream In Plastic submission PDF form here. But be quick as the final deadline for submissions is June 6.
