Exclusive chat with CEO Austin Long as he sheds light on their collaboration with Dead Meat, future releases, and teaming up with RJ Torbert. Bonus: A special treat inside!
On a fitting Friday the 13th of October, Youtooz is releasing a collection centered around the eerie Ghost Face theme, launching precisely at 3 PM EST.
Renowned for its impeccable design and quality, the toy art and collectibles brand unveils three novel figurines: one featuring our Halloween icon in a blood-splattered mask, another with an aged mask, and a third that glimmers in the dark.
We were privileged to converse with Youtooz’s CEO, Austin Long, delving into creativity, design process, and an enticing upcoming plushy range.
Austin talked about developing this collection, with the goal of achieving a product fans would love, with R.J. Torbert, the licensing director of Fun World:
“I think what was super cool and unique about working with R.J. was he was down to kind of push it a little bit and also introduce a creator club.”
In alignment with Youtooz‘s ethos of celebrating genuine content creators, they’ve collaborated for a special two-figurine set with the popular Dead Meat YouTubers, James and Chelsea. Notably, this duo made cameo appearances in SCREAM 2022 and now gives a nod to STA8 in a stylish manner.
