A toy gets picked up or passed over from four feet away, by someone already holding a basket. You get the box, and about two seconds of their attention.
Nobody reads the back of the package until they've already decided to pick it up. That decision comes from silhouette, color, character and finish, read at distance and at speed. The same thing happens online at 300 pixels, and again in a photo somebody else took under bad lighting. Your packaging has to work in all three places, and it has to work before anyone knows what your brand is.
We've spent years inside this world. We know what a window box does that a blister doesn't, why a collector cares about the insert and the certificate as much as the figure, and how a line looks on a shelf when it's face-out next to its own variants. We design for the physical object and the photograph of it at the same time, because both are doing sales work.
Every asset comes from one team. The dieline, the hero render, the unboxing film, the drop page and the ads chasing it. Your product looks like the same product everywhere it appears, which matters more here than almost anywhere, because collectors compare.
The result is a line that earns retail placement, sells through when a drop goes live, and photographs well enough that your customers do the marketing for you.

Why toy and collectible brands pick us
We collect this stuff too
Not a generic agency taking a toy brief. We know what a collector notices, what a retail buyer asks for and what a factory needs, so the work holds up in all three rooms.
SKUs designed and counting
We've watched what earns a pickup at retail and what sells out in a drop, and we bring that pattern to every box, render and page.
One stop for your digital creative needs
Don't chase five vendors when you could partner with one with proven capabilities in Branding, Experience Design, and Rich Media.
A schedule built around your ship date
Tooling, sampling, buyer meetings and street date. We hand you a dated plan that works backward from the real deadline instead of hoping. ---

Single SKUs have set tiers with published prices. Full line systems with dielines and variants run as a range, typically $2.5k to $50k+, which we firm up after a short scoping chat.
Yes. Dielines, bleeds, color specs and packaging artwork built to your manufacturer's template, not a pretty mockup they'll send back with questions.
No. We build photoreal renders from sculpts, CAD or reference before anything is tooled, which is exactly what makes them useful for preorders, buyer meetings and retail listings.
Yes, and we're used to approval cycles. We build to a licensor's style guide, and if you're the licensor, we'll build the guide your partners work from.
A sense of the product, your ship or street date, and whatever exists: sculpts, art, factory templates, existing packaging. The project planner captures the rest, and we take it from there with a kickoff call.
