GUMS Production's Benny Fok, 32, is no toy.

1. GET UPS!
"Many amateurs post work on forums like kidrobot.com to gain interest when trying to enter the toy business. Or you could prototype sculptures themselves, which is better."

2. BLANKMAN!
"Get a blank-the white body-of one of the more popular toys, and paint your work on the body and show it around."

3. SKETCHERS!
"Submit your sketches, designs, and personal info to toy companies that you like. Their websites have the specs they need."

4. MAKE THE MOLD!
"Talk to the factories to see if your sketches will work. They'll tell you what to modify, and then send a prototype."

5. DISTRIBUTE THE PRODUCT!
"Find a distributor through a toy index online, or by posting on the forums."
