Death & Taxes: A Warden Custom Show Debuts at TOYCON PH 2025!

DTC Studios proudly presents Death & Taxes: A Warden Custom Show, a special group exhibition celebrating the studio’s flagship character, The Warden. This highly anticipated event will take place at Toycon Philippines 2025, happening June 13–15 at the SMX Convention Center in Pasay City. Fans can experience the show firsthand at Table 36 in the Artist Alley.
At the heart of this custom show is The Warden, the original art toy designed by DTC Studios as a tribute to personal fandoms and inspirations—including a nod to a beloved League of Legends champion, blended with sharp streetwear aesthetics and CEO-level swagger. Since its inception, The Warden has symbolized the creative journey of its designer—a path marked by exploration, growth, and staying true to artistic identity.
Death & Taxes brings that journey full circle by inviting a carefully curated roster of local and international artists to reinterpret The Warden in their own distinctive styles. With each artist crafting a one-of-one custom, the show promises to be a vibrant and diverse display of creative expression. From seasoned veterans to rising stars in the art toy scene, every participant brings a fresh perspective to this dynamic platform.
Despite the limitations of budget and time, the dedication behind this two-person production has been unwavering. “I may not have been able to invite everyone I wanted to, but those who are part of this show are among the best in the game,” the organizer shared. “I’m incredibly honored to have them all on board. We’re doing everything we can to promote and respect the amazing work each artist has put into their piece.”
The show also marks a turning point for The Warden sculpt itself, signaling the end of an era—and the beginning of something new. While this version of The Warden will be retired, fans can rest assured that a new and improved incarnation is already on the horizon. Participating artists include: @5thturtle, @aki_aljoignite, @armankendrick, @breakboness, @chk_dsk, @bediadave, @evildave1969, @hot_actor_, @jedmadelaofficial, @klaris.artworks, @lab.monkeys, @thelilitoys, @milo.sanluis, @mootangpak_studio, @no_stra, @rainbowhermit, @ravenousmecha, @chillchow03, @reerustart, @revise_d, @rice.terawr, @eightwolves, @the.wetworks.studios, and @winvill_art.
