Travis Cain, BFF

May 17 2010

It is hoped that MFAD alumni will be BFF (best friends forever). Travis Cain (MFAD ’04) is not only a good MFAD friend, he’s the creator of a set of Kidrobot toys called BFF.

Here’s an excerpt:
“The BFFs were sold in a popular ‘blind box’ format. Blind boxes are just a couple inches tall and wide; any toys to be sold this way are necessarily small in order to fit into the hand-sized boxes. Each blind box features a line of toys. The box advertises the series and the designer but not the actual toy inside (thus “blind”). It is entirely possible to buy six boxes at random and end up with six of the same toys.”
