Qee to creation!

Following the charitable contribution of the 2.5″ Qee Happy Bear for the relief efforts for Haiti after the earthquake disaster, Toy2R once again contributes to charity and a good cause.

The Smile Angel Foundation, founded by Chinese Diva, Faye Wong, offers assistance to children suffering with a cleft lip. Toy2R founder and Qee creator, Raymond Choy, wanted to express his support for this worthy cause and customized this original 16″ Qee Bear and donated it for the charitable auction supporting the Smile Angel Foundation.

The Qee represents the joy of life and creativity and inspires others to explore the imagination. Toy2R hopes that the funds from this auction can bring attention and support to this cause and those children can find happiness and help through the Smile Angel Foundation.

All of the original customized Bart Simpson Qees can be viewed online in the Toy2R USA Simpsons Qee Gallery. With over 175 original pieces, we are now proud to add Homer Simpson and welcome customizers of all levels to submit their Custom Simpson Qees to info@toy2rusa.com to be included in the gallery collection.
