Foo Dog has been helping the cool kids, of all ages, get in touch with their creative side since 2008 with the fun customisable MEGA toys. Foo Dog’s Project MEGA, in association with the Middle East Film and Comic Con, will be hosting the Middle East’s largest designer toy exhibition featuring over 125 MEGAs that have been exclusively designed by 125 local artists. The event will be held in four key locations around The Dubai Mall, with the grand opening taking place at The Dubai Mall Catwalk in Fashion Avenue on the 28th of June, and will include artists painting live, and will also feature live performances by DJ Bliss, Mr Shef Codes, and Nikotin.
