Celebrating creativity, culture, and collaboration, StudioColdpens, a product design studio , has joined forces Wanda Lephoto to introduce a unique, limited-edition design toy. This collectible piece brings to life the lead illustrated character ‘’ah-no’’ from StudioColdPens, now reimagined in toy form and adorned in a signature Wanda Lephoto ‘Me Fie’ (my place of origin) Print.

This collaboration is more than just an artistic endeavour—it represents the brotherly bond between the creators of both brands, merging their individual artistic visions into one striking piece. The peculiar print featured on the toy is a defining element of Wanda Le Photo’s aesthetic, seamlessly blending the worlds of fashion and illustration.

“This partnership is a celebration of cross-disciplinary storytelling, where design, fashion, and collectibles meet to create something truly special,” says [Allen Coleman, StudioColdPens]. “It’s a reflection of our shared values, vision, and the deep respect we have for each other’s craft.”

Wanda, founder of [Wanda Lephoto], adds, “The print we chose is a nod to our curiosity and the journey to finding alternate versions of ourselves across the continent. Seeing it come to life in a whole new form on this toy is both exciting and inspiring.”

The release of this one-of-a-kind design toy marks a milestone in African creative collaborations, reinforcing the power of unity in artistic expression
