Strangeco And FriendsWithYou Are Proud to Present The Release of Wish Come True

Zip Zap Zoo make this WISH COME TRUE
Roll us and Spin us and then you will hear,
The secrets of the universe soon become clear.
Now pick a number and hold your breath,
It's time to take your very first step.
We will sing a song for you to help you make that Wish Come True!

STRANGEco is pleased to announce the release of the WISH COME TRUE toy collection designed by modern art culture wizards Sam Borkson and Arturo Sandoval III, a.k.a. FriendsWithYou. Wish Come True is the next chapter in the visionary art and design saga of these two Miami art community heroes.

In the world of collectible Art Toys it is uncommon that a product is appropriate for young children as well as adults, not to mention one that can actually be play with. Each character in the Wish Come True series features weighted bottoms and built-in bell chimes, giving them all a playful rocking motion and a subtle, soothing sound. These beautiful figures are perfectly in line with FriendsWithYou's dream of spreading magic, luck and friendship throughout the universe. "Wish Come True is new spin on the new Art Toy genre that has been so popular in the past few years," comments Jim Crawford, co-founder of STRANGEco, "FriendsWithYou's great design appeals to the collector, and the playability appeals to the collector's kids, too."

Wish Come True will get an advance premiere at Art Basel Miami, December 6-9 2007, and the product will be released in January 2008. The FriendsWithYou team will also be presenting a touring installation in Spring 2008, featuring giant versions of the Wish Come True characters in a magical, interactive environment.

The six-piece Wish Come True figure series are packaged in a full-color "mystery" box; much like a trading card, the figure inside is a surprise.

Suggested Retail Price - $7.50
