Designer Vinyl Toy by Matt JOnes
Lunartik in a Cup of Tea started life as a resin art canvas and worked it way into a collectable vinyl toy.
Over 6 years of development has gone into this project so far, and one year to manufacture this item.
It's a self funded venture, so everything takes a bit more time than normal.
