UME-Toys (You&amp;Me) came to life as a joint project with his daughter @elmos_empire to serve as an outlet for their joint ideas whilst she was being home schooled. Always a keen doodler Richard began to turn his sketches into finished resin collectables, growing the UME brand through social media, gallery shows and word of mouth. In 2014 he won the prestigious Clutter Designer Toy Awards for best resin toy with his cute GeekWok character.\u00a0<\/em><\/strong> <strong><em>\u00a0<\/em><\/strong> <strong><em><a href=\"http:\/\/www.umetoys.net\/\">www.UMETOYS.NET<\/a>\u00a0|\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.dketoys.com\/\">www.dketoys.com<\/a>\u00a0| #customgeekwok<\/em><\/strong> \u00a0 \u00a0<script src=\"\/\/embedr.flickr.com\/assets\/client-code.js\" async=\"\" type=\"mce-no\/type\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p><a title=\"Custom GeekWok Show\" href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/dketoys\/22934632992\/in\/album-72157660993140792\/\" data-flickr-embed=\"true\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/farm1.staticflickr.com\/650\/22934632992_6440eb3c5f_z.jpg\" alt=\"Custom GeekWok Show\" width=\"436\" height=\"640\" \/><\/a><script src=\"\/\/embedr.flickr.com\/assets\/client-code.js\" async=\"\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><a title=\"Custom GeekWok Show\" href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/dketoys\/22922063276\/in\/album-72157660993140792\/\" data-flickr-embed=\"true\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/farm6.staticflickr.com\/5658\/22922063276_894196bfe6_z.jpg\" alt=\"Custom GeekWok Show\" width=\"433\" height=\"640\" \/><\/a><script src=\"\/\/embedr.flickr.com\/assets\/client-code.js\" async=\"\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p><a title=\"Custom GeekWok Show custom by Richard Page\" href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/dketoys\/22535189779\/in\/album-72157660993140792\/\" data-flickr-embed=\"true\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/farm1.staticflickr.com\/781\/22535189779_18eeb75835_z.jpg\" alt=\"Custom GeekWok Show custom by Richard Page\" width=\"640\" height=\"640\" \/><\/a><script src=\"\/\/embedr.flickr.com\/assets\/client-code.js\" async=\"\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>DKE is back at Designer Con November 21-22 Booth #812.\u00a0We have a lot to get through before the show doors open!
