Sketch-a-Move

March 9, 2010Design, Technology, Videodoodles, toy cars, toysScott Meisner

Sketch-a-move is a concept for a toy car that allows you to explore the unique relationships between small surface doodles and actual physical movements. If you draw a circle on the top of the toy car, it will move in a circle. If you draw a complicated spiral, the car will move in a spiral.

This is so friggin’ neat! Toys of the future…maybe?

Designer Marcus Tremonto has teamed up with designer toy store and apparel manufacturer kidrobot to create a collection of MUNNY Lightbots. MUNNYs are kidrobot’s customizable collectible dolls. By adding colorful materials to the dolls Tremonto has managed to customize the MUNNYs in a variety of ways. Some are puking rainbows (see above), while others are peeing concentric circles and donned with eye shields and laser swords. Check ’em all out in the gallery below. The MUNNY Lightbots are on sale at the kidrobot store in Soho, NYC. Each doll is signed by Tremonto, numbered, and is packaged in a custom box. kidrobot is well known for exclusives that ran out fast and are gone forever. So if you’re interested in one of these guys, I’d make it to the store on the double. (Tremonto is the same guy behind the carbon fiber lamp.)
