the breakfast train

timber table train set for little railway fans.

Inspired by the unstoppable playing impulse of my son Bruno. Developed and crafted in Frankfurt / Germany by NEUE FREUNDE PRODUCTS.

All items have engraved rails and can be connected to classic Brio system, to make your breakfast more funny.

The breakfast plate is the center piece of the set. It is made from 12mm glued beech wood (Buche Leimholz). Dimensions are 21.5x17cm. Weight is 310gr. It is now available for 18 EUR (plus shipping). Just send us an email to order one or more as an accessory to your wooden railway...

The cupholders for cup and eggcup are still prototypes, and will be sold separately soon. Please let us know if you'd like those, too - so we know, if we need to risk money on an injection mold.

Care instructions: these are real wood items - no plastics! Due to that, the plate is not water resistant. So from your side it would need some "bees wax" or "oil" treatment. Even after that don't put it in the dishwasher and don't leave it in wet places.

Two swinging easter eggs

What are easter-eggs doing in their spare time?
This is just a fun illustration... but might not be funny in english.
In german it's called "Eierschaukeln".

perturbing pencils

here comes a bunch of hot new characters for a potential kinder surprise toy series. Designed by our external artist Sönke Christiansen (11 years). Every artist knows about his own fight with his fractious tools. But did anyone ever consider the 1000 deaths a poor pencil dies every day?

New item for koziol

I think this is the biggest product we designed so far! A wall clock for the german company "koziol". Available in many colours (the fingers are usually white, we spraypainted them) ...

Wetten dass...?

Some years ago my friend Marian Dziubiel and me made a nice series of modular cars for Kinder Surprise.
Normally these kind of toys are only available for a short period of time, and afterwards been forgotten.

Not this time! Our modular car with the hippie guy inside appeared last weekend in the TV show "Wetten Dass...?"
Some crazy guy assembled this toy while scating!!! down a bobsleight run. I guess this only demonstrates the well engineered parts and the excellent fitting of our toy, doesn't it?

Princess and Frog

Some time ago our modeller Stefan did a Freeform modeling job on Disney's "Princess and Frog". We did these models for a german toy company.
