Moscow is currently hosting a huge exhibition about Art Toys. The history and culture of Art toys is investigated in Super Toys Live. An extraordinary, mammoth exhibition exploring Designer Toys as a new language in contemporary art.
With over 2000 exhibits across 14 themed halls with a total area of 10,000 square meters. This is possibly one of the largest displays of Designer Toys to have ever been mounted, anywhere.
And Doktor A. is represented alongside the largest names in the art toy scene with a beautifully mounted display of his classic toy figures.
If you are in Moscow any time soon, it is not a show to be missed.
At the Crystal “DC” Hall. Scooter street, 4 village 11, Moscow. 12.00 – 20.00 Tuesday- Sunday. https://supertoys.live
Don’t forget that Doktor A is taking commission requests so it’s a great time to get the ball rolling on that Mechtorian commission you have always wished was in your collection.
Drop him an email and get the conversation started. doktor@mechtorians.com Everything is open for consideration. All with obligation-free quotes.
Do you have a need to communicate with a loved one who has passed into shadow? Moved on, shuffled off, or gone into the great beyond! Now you can, with the Samuel Hain & Company’s latest aethermatic marvel. Think of the deceased and ask your question. Then gently turn the handle. Their answer will be dispensed in the form of a printed tape. Your willingness to trust the answer is optional.
(Samuel Hain & Co are not legally responsible for repercussions derived from actions taken due to messages received.)
For only £65 Doktor A will produce for you a unique Mechtorian ink drawing of your choosing.
A 7″ X 5″ (approximately) Indian ink drawing on heavy weight, textured watercolour paper. Shipped to you for FREE anywhere in the world.
You can choose your subject matter and the good Doktor will put his Mechtorian spin on it. Or just let him come up with something for you. Add a comment to the order with your requirements.
(A single figure only, possibly interacting with a single prop. – If you want something more complex or a larger image of a group or scene than email doktor@mechtorians.com for a quote). If no note is present you will get a random Mechtorian figure.
Limited to 100 pieces! So don’t wait too long or you may miss out.
My commissions list is now once again open. If you have an idea for a toy custom or a full scratch built character please do drop me an email and we can discuss your requirements.

And remember I am also available for any aspect of toy or character deign for your company, video game, movie or personal collection.
Where are the new ideas? The original voices? The fresh new styles? Drowned out in a sea of regurgitation and repetition. Struggling to get their voices heard before they are washed away in the ersatz creativity of popular culture.
