Artist – Mark Nagata

Location – San Francisco, CA

Bio – Mark Nagata has come full circle in the vinyl toy world having started as a collector of early vinyl toys from Japan (his private holdings include the largest Ultraman collection in the world). His illustration client list reflects his range of talent: IBM, Genetech, Scholastic Books, Harper Collins, Activision, DC Comics, Galoob Toys, Lucasfilms, Hasbro Toys, and a series of 40 cover paintings for R. L. Stine’s Goosebump book series. In 2002, Nagata combined his passion for toys and his commercial art background to co-found Super 7 magazine, a stylish publication dedicated to Japanese toy culture. After four years of producing the magazine, Nagata is now involved in a new venture, Max Toy Co. which is producing its own toys, both licensed and original. For Nagata, Max Toy Co. is a synthesis of toys and art… both life long passions.
