The upcoming In My Happy Place vinyl art toy lamp from JC Rivera x Strangecat Toys is based on the artist’s whimsical original painting. The lighthearted piece features his signature Bear Champ figure snoozing away on a smiley face cloud which doubles as an LED lamp. The new release reveals the softer side of the boxing character, freed from worries about competition, at peace with himself.
The clever hybrid toy & light design adds subtle functionality to the piece. Visually, this is an art toy that doubles as a handy night-light style lamp rather than a lifestyle object with art toy appeal. The USB-based design should fit right into the digital home.
The In My Happy Place vinyl art toy lamp (5″ H x 7″ W) will be available for preorder on Friday (3.11) at 9 AM PST from Strangecat Toys for $150. Shipping is scheduled for July 2022.
