Tanya, a Scouser living over in LA, is a collector of Vinyl goodness, cosplayer, geek blogger and the brains behind My Hero Toy.

“The idea of My Hero Toy came to me when I wanted to make a custom figure and there weren’t any cool female blank figures.”
I have seen popular customisable vinyl platforms in different sizes and shapes but none that really work for the sexy superheroes I see in comics; like my favs Ms. Marvel, Wonder Woman, Emma Frost and Susan Storm.
So, I created My Hero Toy, a vinyl figure platform that not only can be used to bring these characters to life in a fun and sexy way, but also to create new and unique characters”
Check out My Hero Toys at: http://www.myherotoys.com/. This is a pretty neat female orientated vinyl DIY toy. That’s certainly not to say that this is solely for the female market, but it helps open up the Designer Toy world to the fairer sex.
With the use of markers, sharpies or paint a My Hero vinyl figure can become a video game character, comic books hero or whatever you can imagine. My Hero Toy is perfect for vinyl artists, comic creators or cosplayers.
Each figure has 3-points of articulation, is approximately 5-inches tall and is available in three colours – White, Brown and Flesh (Peach). $17.99 each.
Or My Hero Toys – Tanya Tate as Lady Titan Vinyl Figure, priced at $30.00 or SIGNED by Tanya Tate Lady Titan Figure for $40.

(HOLLYWOOD, CA) Cosplay superstar Tanya Tate (http://www.myherotoys.com) is set for a DesignerCon signing. November 19th and 20th, Tanya will be appearing at the annual event that celebrates the urban vinyl culture. Held annually in Pasadena, DesignerCon features over 350 vendors, creator panels, presentations and more. At the show Tanya will be promoting her line of customizable vinyl figures: My Hero Toys. Tanya conceived these toys with the intention of creating a female-specific platform for vinyl artists. She even released a limited edition version of her cosplay character, Lady Titan.
“DesignerCon is an amazing event that celebrates artist and companies who might not have the opportunity to shine at events like San Diego Comic Con, which are dominated by multimillion dollar companies,” said Tanya. “As a creator and company owner, I am thrilled to be attending the show. It’s going to be an amazing show, attendees are going to have an unforgettable experience.”
Tanya will be signing at the 3DRetro booth, #532, from 1pm – 2pm on both Saturday and Sunday. DesignerCon is held at the Pasadena Convention Center located at 300 East Green Street in Pasadena. Ticket and other information on DesignerCon can be found here: http://www.designercon.com.
