TOYETICA VOLUME 1: Perfect for fans of My Little Pony, Gravity Falls and Steven Universe
In volume one of TOYETICA, Trixie tries to befriend the mysterious new mermaid student, Minky Mermille. Meanwhile, everyone in class gets their official toy accessories, but practically no one is happy with their choices. A secret Trixie has discovered from the school’s past may be the answer to everyone’s problems, but with Minky threatening to quit school, Sweetina fighting with a horse and the campus gazebo burning down, can Trixie get anyone to listen to her?
“Toyetica isn’t about the perfect toy model, the princess with a million accessories and a pony and a lot of market appeal,” writer M. LeGrow comments. “It’s about the other toys who don’t have the glossy packaging, the right theme, the shiny outfit. And it’s about the toys who never really wanted those things to begin with, because they’ve got bigger dreams than what the world wants them to do.” She continues, “I’ve always felt that I wouldn’t mind being put in a box, so long as I get to pick the box I go in. It’s when other people choose it for me that I start to think outside of it.”
