Happy 20th Anniversary Max Toy Company !

Hard to believe it’s been 20 years of Max Toy Company ! As usual I have not kept up with updates (here), for up to date info, you should check our Instagram @maxtoyco and/or subscribe to our email list ( there’s a button on our homepage somewhere)

Amongst stuff happening this year, we should be trekking to Mexico for toy adventures, a children’s book based on my life in toys called “Monster Maker: The Strange Creatures of Mark Nagata” written by author Debbi Michiko Florence with Art by Inko Ai Takita Published by Reycraft books late 2025 release.

Oh and I’ve dubbed this year the Year of Eyezon as well .. the mutant potato is by far our most popular character and you will see new versions and collabs of him this year too !

Of course you can expect many customs and collabs with myself and Max so please keep an eye on our Instagrams ( Max’s is @maxnagataart )

I’m probably forgetting stuff and will try my best to update here in the future ;-P
