Brazil-based artist Sang Won Sung may have been inspired by Toy Story when he designed these weird, yet interesting mutant toys.
The Korean-born contemporary artist plucked out parts from various toys and dolls to create a fantastic set of abstract looking hybrid toys. One of his works include a television set with a face of a baby doll poking from the inside while the legs of a Barbie doll is attached on top to imitate an antennae.
