HERO is a loveable but hapless rogue, desperately trying to make his way in the world as a fortune-hunting swashbuckler! He'll bring you adventure, magic, riches beyond your wildest dreams, and above all a happy heart. When HERO takes a break from being stupendous, he likes to eat sweet melon buns and do jigsaws.

HERO comes laden with bounty from his adventures in TADOland! His goodies include desktops, buddy icons/avatars, and a mini-animation of himself in action! He's also brought his friend Mr. Bonbon along with him for you to assemble and love.

Mike and Katie are TADO, two very hard working people who do graphic design, illustration, animation, toy design, and a bit of everything in between. They are based in Sheffield, UK, enjoy ice cream and playing with their daft dogs.

Their distinctive style is applied across a wide range of mediums, from logos, animation and web design to customized cars, designer toys and home-ware! TADO's diverse client-base includes MTV International, Daimler Chrysler (Smart Car), Pioneer, World Wildlife Fund, Sony, Honda, Habitat, and British Airways alongside companies such as Flying Cat Toys, Kidrobot, Mathmos, Colette and Playlounge.

TADO are also well known amongst collectors of designer toys for their work with internationally acclaimed toy company Flying Cat. Their 'Fortune Pork' series of mini-plushes was released in 2005 and their 'Ryoko and The SissyFists' set of mini figures will launch later in 2006.
