With "Happy Rabit" Kozik dissociates himself from the macabre and anarchist aesthetics to which we are accustomed. Instead, he gives us a happy, lively and vibrantly colored bunny. Frank Kozik, considered one of the precursors of Art Toy, was an American graphic artist known for his successful posters for alternative rock bands. Among his many facets, he was responsible for the realization of iconic album covers (such as those of Queens Of The Stone Age's debut, Melvins' "Houdini" or The Offspring's "Americana"). He was also the creative director of the Kidrobot toys brand since 2014 and the founder of what was one of the most respected alternative hard music labels of its time, Man's Ruin Records.

Qee is a line of designer dolls created by Toy2r founder and president Raymond Choy. Born in 2002 in Hong Kong, Qee has revolutionized the design world by introducing contemporary art to the vinyl toy market. Under the slogan "Everyone can design", Choy's identifying idea has brought together the creations of important artists from all over the world, from Frank Kozik, Eugenio Merino, Emilio García, Albert Pinya or Elenza Monzo, to Chu Uroz, Manuel Ocampo or Max Ripo. In this way, each artist captures on these dolls -a particular "3D canvas"- his or her way of understanding the world. These curious characters are available in various sizes including 1.5", 2.5", 8", 16", 36" and the 60" Qee. Toy2r also provides D.I.Y (Do It Yourself) Qees for aspiring designers. They are articulated, as they move the head, arms and legs. Since its inception, Toy2r has received numerous internationally renowned awards around the world, making it a leading firm in designer toys.
