Shaking the boundaries between art and design, Bang Bang created these large size reproductions of toy figurines in vibrant colours. Playing with a nostalgic memory of iconic objects we were all familiar with as kids. Fun!
This is the first collection called ‘Legends Make Heroes‘ and focused on cow-boys and indians inspired by miniature figures of the 60’s.
On Bang Bang’s stand at Playtime Paris where the brand exhibited a few weeks ago, people were attracted like magnets by the objects on display. You could see that it was like an emotional and un-crontrolled reaction.
I bet parents will buy the products thinking for themselves more than for their kids. Eventually the whole household will be in heaven!
