“UniPlay had such a wonderful time at PTS2025! For us, the greatest reward lies in meeting artists from around the world, hearing the stories behind their incredible creations, and connecting with new friends who share the same passion and values. Every art piece carries its own story, and being an art toy artist is never easy — but it’s comforting to know we’re not alone on this journey.
A heartfelt thank you to all the friends and collectors who visited our booth, and to our amazing partners at @plastictinkers, @monstroj_, @oldhabitssg, @littleghoststudio2020, @theblaxkspace, @yeossg, and @marinabaysands for making us feel at home. See you again soon!”
