Kei Sawada's graduation work at the Department of Visual Information Design, Kobe University of Design's Art Faculty
consisted of creating more than 1,000 different characters in just three months. This was evidence of the designer's ability to invent different characters. Since then, he has become a staunch creator with a focus on 3D realization.

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 world of design, introducing contemporary art into 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 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.
