Based in Kansas City, MAD (Jeremy Madl) got his BFA degree in Toy Design back in the year 2000 and has quickly become one of the freshest think tanks out there today. Working with clients such as Mattel, YUM Brands, Pepsi, Scion, Kidrobot, Wild Planet, NFL , Upper Deck, Playmates Toys, Makita and IDT Entertainment on a variety of todays hottest brands. Doing all types of projects ranging from promotions to packaging, character design to retail and premium toys. MAD has been able to broaden his skills from simply Toy Design to anything a client may need creatively.

Aside from his commercial work MAD has been working non-stop on his own licensed toy lines and brands under the MAD Toy Design label for the past 6 years. His first licensed figure line MAD*L™ is manufactured by one of the top designer toy producers out there, Wheaty Wheat Studios. The line is currently one of the hottest brands on the market and continues to fly off the shelves globally with each new release. There are many other new products in development ranging from toys, tee's, prints, and more. MAD isalways looking into new media outlets to express himself.

As if his commercial work and production projects didn't keep him busy enough, MAD’s been in a handful of shows and contests creating one of a kind pieces that push the design envelope to the next level. Expect to see a lot of new and innovative work from this up and coming artist in the years to come!
