A few weeks ago, our sneak-peek guide teased 15 of the first artists and exhibitors for Pop Toy Show Singapore 2025. Since then organizers have more than doubled the guest list, and it’s still growing.
The official roster now lists 25 invited featured artists—with fresh headliners Po Yun Wang, Tik Ka, and GRAPE BRAIN® joining ClogTwo, Liunic, and MonKiddo—and 48 exhibitor booths.
Below, we’ve organized profiles on 15 more of the exhibitors, plus profiles on Po Yun Wang, Tik Ka, and GRAPE BRAIN. Think of this line‑up as a cheat sheet for the next 12 months of blind‑box fandom.

More Featured Artists @ Pop Toy Show Singapore 2025
⏰ Last updated Thu, Jul 17, 2025
Featured Artists are the illustrators Pop Toy Show invites for meet-and-greets and small-batch merch drops. Earlier this month, we featured the first three invited artists. As of this week, the three names below have also been announced.
Note: Nearly all of Pop Mart’s official character artists are already on the guest list. For the running roster, see the show’s official artists page.
1) GRAPE BRAIN
📍 Osaka, Japan 🇯🇵
Japanese sofubi artist GRAPE BRAIN (artist alias of RAGE) has carved a niche with his “kimokawaii” figures—macabre‑cute hybrids such as Hell’s Cat Onigiri, eye‑in‑hand schoolgirl Nigiru‑chan and six‑legged axolotl Macaroni—whose vinyl colorways fuse yōkai folklore and grafitti culture.His Singapore footprint grew in late 2024 with the GRIPON Singapore solo show at BLAXK by ActionCity, where RAGE introduced Shishikaba Nene‑chan, a new character inspired by the legendary hopping vampire genre Jiangshi.
2) Po Yun Wang
📍 Canada 🇨🇦
Taiwan‑born, Canada‑raised designer‑illustrator Po Yun Wang plays with slap‑stick taboo with his Picky Eaters universe—vinyl troublemakers who proudly pick their noses while skewering pop‑culture and art‑history icons. . Recent folklore‑infused offshoots (Door Gods and Taoist‑priest Picky Daoshi) fold Taiwanese temple iconography into his tongue‑in‑cheek street graphics.
3) Tik Ka
📍 Hong Kong 🇭🇰
Tik Ka From East, the Hong Kong multimedia artist who splices classical Chinese iconography with blockbuster memes, has pushed that “East‑meets‑West” dialect into vinyl form through a string of headline sofubi and polystone releases. His breakout figure Hambuddha pairs a Buddha with a burger stack, while Chicken Fairy wields a fried‑chicken pail astride a phoenix. Singapore has been a key launch pad: his 2023 “EastWest 東⻄” solo at Shout Art Hub introduced local audiences to his increasingly popular style.

Exhibitors (below) are the toy brands, vendors, artists, and studios that Pop Toy Show seats in retail-style booths, while Featured Artists (above) are individual illustrators invited mainly for signings and small-batch merch.
1) Carina Illustrations × DCHTOONS
📍 Hong Kong 🇭🇰 / Singapore, Singapore 🇸🇬
Hong Kong illustrator Carina Wong—a.k.a. Carina Illustrations—returns to PTS with her breakout character Carbi the Relatable Riceball, a mascot whose expressions have become a perennial crowd‑pleaser. This year she teams up with Singapore creator Dylan “DCHTOONS” Chia, whose sticker empire has grown from a web strip into a multi-hundred-design merchandise line.
2) DODO SUGAR
📍 Hangzhou, China 🇨🇳
Hangzhou‑based DODO SUGAR—motto “潮玩治愈生活” (“healing life through designer toys”)—returns to PTS with its breakout IPs Nami, Wendy, and Miss RaRa. After a sold‑out booth at PTS 2024 that dropped multiple exclusives, the studio will likely be one of the show’s most‑queued‑up stands.
3) Jumping Spider Productions
📍 Singapore, Singapore 🇸🇬 / Berlin, Germany 🇩🇪
This Berlin‑Singapore studio and animation house is crossing over into physical collectibles at Pop Toy Show Singapore 2025. Their eco‑hero Sun Warrior—already sold‑out online as a 6 cm acrylic keychain pre‑order—might make an appearance, but the figure below definitely will.
4) Moshicat
📍 Singapore, Singapore 🇸🇬
Singapore illustrator Emily “Moshicat” (named after her adopted shelter cat Moshi) has built a 200k‑strong Instagram following for a relentlessly “pawsitive” universe of round‑bellied kitties who sip bubble‑tea and cosplay as dinosaurs. What began as a 2020 lockdown doodle project now spans over 100 SKUs—keychains, sticker sheets, washi tapes, enamel pins, ceramic coasters; lots!
5) Pop Play Planet
📍 Singapore, Singapore 🇸🇬
Singapore’s new space‑themed “blind‑box playground,” located on Level 4 of 313@Somerset—curates more than 50 pop‑culture IPs in one neon‑rocket retail zone, from Pop Mart staples (Labubu, SKULLPANDA) to Sanrio and Crayon Shin‑chan mini‑dioramas.
6) SIMA Enterprises (ZCWO)
📍 Hong Kong 🇭🇰
SIMA Enterprises (ZCWO), Hong Kong’s 2006‑founded figure powerhouse, specializes in “museum‑grade” PVC/polystone that splices street‑pop aesthetics with big artist IPs.

7) Team Green (Far East) Pte Ltd
📍 Hong Kong 🇭🇰 / Singapore, Singapore 🇸🇬
Team Green (Far East) Pte Ltd, the Singapore arm of Hong Kong’s eco‑friendly design brand Team Green, will swap PVC for plywood. Established in 2012, the company’s laser‑cut JIGZLE puzzles use FSC‑certified wood and paper and rely on mortise‑and‑tenon slots so builders don’t need glue or tools, turning flat sheets into miniature architecture and animal dioramas.
8) TourniqueT × SalapaoAngel × LATTE LATTE
📍 Bangkok, Thailand 🇹🇭
This trio from Bangkok brings very different but equally wholesome energies to PTS 2025. TourniqueT (Thai automata maker TourniqueT GG) supplies crank‑driven story pieces like Whale, We Fly in the Galaxy and pocket sculptures like the 6 cm Love Scarf Fox. Also at the booth is designer Jeen Oratchaporn Warasirikul’s viral guinea‑pig avatar LATTE LATTE, a meme character inspired by her pet guinea-pig, now spun into limited plush after being spotlighted at Bangkok’s Collectible Fest as a rising Thai art‑toy IP.
And lastly, SalapaoAngel, the feel‑good alter‑ego of wood‑illustrator Tucko PariPari, turns basswood blocks into round‑cheeked guardians. Her new “Le Petite Pao” Planet Lamp (below) is equal parts night‑light, play‑set, and kinetic art:
9) wormdew
📍 Singapore, Singapore 🇸🇬
Singapore micro‑label wormdew has blossomed from 2023 TikTok bead‑strap tutorials into a pastel‑soaked shop that mashes Y2K nostalgia with kawaii craft culture. Its BigCartel storefront now lists hand‑beaded “chunkies~”—think wrist straps, Animal‑Crossing and Miffy charm keychains, even point‑and‑shoots.
10) Siamese Azukisan
📍 Tokyo, Japan 🇯🇵
Japanese manga artist Nobeko turned her Siamese cat into the charm‑bomb Azukisan, whose sleepy‑eyed hijinks now headline multiple blind‑box lines, from Azukisan’s Daily Life Series 1 & 2 to plush and magnet pendants.
11) UNiPLAY
📍 Taipei, Taiwan 🇹🇼
UNiPLAY reimagines early play with squishy, antibacterial building blocks, combining unique soft materials into chew‑safe bricks for infants from 3 months. Armed with international patents and certifications against S. aureus and E. coli, UNiPLAY’s toys have round‑corner designs sized to prevent swallowing and tactile textures that nurture fine‑motor skills. They’re soft blocks!
12) Ziqi
📍 Singapore, Singapore 🇸🇬
Ziqi Wu turns kaiju love into soft‑vinyl art. The illustrator and multimedia artist built the Monster Little universe, where 10–12 cm Dinos, Qiqis, and BinkBinks show off big color with little builds. Today his creatures roam Asia, with exhibitions in Taiwan and Thailand and commissions for big names like Marvin the Martian for Warner Bros.
13) Mochi Mochi Ducks
📍 Tokyo, Japan 🇯🇵
Mochi Mochi Ducks straddle the line between rice cake and waterfowl. The brand’s merch ranges from rubber keychains to weather‑resistant stickers—60 × 48 mm PVC designs for laptops and notebooks.
14) SPACEMARS
📍 Hong Kong 🇭🇰
SPACEMARS (founder Ho Man Kit’s 2021 Hong Kong brand) treats vinyl like a time machine with lines like Super Hero No. 1, Darth Machine and Spacewalker. With recent big name collaborations and visits to toy fairs in Japan and Taiwan, SPACEMARS is quickly growing an interstellar design enterprise.
15) GONG
📍 Hangzhou, China 🇨🇳
GONG Studio, the Hangzhou‑based ACG (Animation, Comics, and Games) offshoot of Pop Mart, spliced SpongeBob SquarePants into a hard‑core accessory: a “Bikini Bottom Buddies” plush blind‑box with wacky fish‑stick bodies, movable limbs and alloy key‑ring clasps. Each 14 cm polyester doll sold vanished in minutes. Pop Mart’s US store still shows them marked out of stock, proving the series’ global appeal.
