Sami!

2009-07-12T22:57:00.001-04:00

Surprise! Here's another study! This is a sami kid. The Samis live in the far north of Scandinavia.

War, what is it good for?

2009-07-09T21:54:00.000-04:00

And another study...

Yet another study!

I Like Characters posted about Toofhairy a few days ago, check it out!

We're sick!

2009-05-05T15:31:00.002-04:00

We're sick here at the Spök-spök HQ! No worries, though, it's not the swine flu. The Spök-spök gang has been laying in bed for days now, and they refuse to get up, unless we give them ice cream, then they're not that sick anymore for some strange reason...

Interview!

2009-04-20T15:47:00.001-04:00

A long interview with Spök-spök has been published by Format Mag, check it out!

Spring 4!

2009-04-15T12:26:00.002-04:00

Look at the tree in the background! Toofhairy thought it was snow, but it's actually tiny flowers!

Spring 3!

2009-04-06T14:44:00.001-04:00

The trees outside the Spök-spök office are starting to get green! It's a rainy day today, but we just don't care!

Spring 2!

2009-04-02T11:05:00.003-04:00

Spring is so nice! Just look at Spök-spök! He's so happy! And it wasn't even a sunny day when this picture was taken!

Spring!

2009-03-24T12:33:00.003-04:00

The days are getting warmer and longer, and we've been trying to take advantage of the beautiful weather to have some pictures taken.

This one of Toofhairy, and other pictures of the rest of the gang will soon come.

Rainy Day!

2009-03-19T12:28:00.004-04:00

Today is a rainy, rainy day. All the Spök-spök's are inside, and no one wants to go out. Everyone is watching cartoons and eating pastries.

The Essence of Toofhairy!

2009-03-09T14:48:00.004-04:00

Taking pictures of toys is a lot of fun. You can capture many different moods depending on the setting. We particularly like this picture, it kind of shows the essence of Toofhairy, curious, adventurous, and a little naive.

Twittertastic!

2009-03-06T14:14:00.004-05:00

In case you've missed it, Spök-spök is on Twitter! We're trying to update as much as we can. So go to our Twitter page for all the update fun, and while you're there, feel free to follow us!

Winter again!

2009-03-03T22:04:00.003-05:00

It's been really cold here in New York the last couple of days. Toofhairy really liked all the snow that's fallen, though, she said it goes really well with her own fuzziness. The Baron has been angry, and Spök-spök and Spökelina have been asking if it's Christmas again.

A normal couple of days at the Spök-spök HQ, in other words.

Spök-spök review!

2009-02-26T09:02:00.004-05:00

The Spök-spök line has been reviewed in Synergy Magazine! This Australian publication is really cool. They cover music, books, films, toys, etc etc etc. This review also features a picture of the first Spök-spök and Spökelina ever made! The Spök-spök review will be in their March issue, so check it out!

Surprise Baron!

2009-02-22T10:09:00.003-05:00

This morning when we got to the office (we go there even on Sundays), we found this picture on the computers! Apparently Baron von Kon has been playing around with the computers and the photo software when we're not around!

He does look a little surprised in this picture, so maybe he was just walking by when someone snapped a photo of him.

Oh, and did you know that in the fall of -09 Baron von Kon Mini's will hit the stores? Keep an eye out...

If you have any questions for Baron von Kon, or the rest of the Spök-spök crew, just post them here, or e-mail them to us at ask[at]spokspok[dot]com and we'll answer them in the next "Ask Spök-spök!"

Spök-spök feature!

2009-02-18T12:25:00.003-05:00

Toys and trend blog A Life More Interesting posted an article about the Spök-spök line. It's a fun website where you can find tons of cute and original stuff. Click here to read what they have to say!

Spökelina's X-mas!

2009-02-16T13:57:00.002-05:00

Here's a cute photo of Spökelina that we came across on Flickr! It was posted to our Flickr group by mishumishi! You can join too by clicking here!

Happy Valentines Day and Fan Art!

2009-02-14T08:58:00.001-05:00

It's Valentines Day, and we're happy to share not one, but TWO pieces of fan art with you! The first one is from Kasey, and it's a girl holding a Spök-spök! This is a great drawing, and Happy Valentines Day to you too Kasey.

The second piece is from Brenda, and it features Baron von Kon peeking out from behind a tree! Is the Baron happy because it's Valentines Day, perhaps? Happy Valentines Day to you Brenda.

Thanks for these pieces of fan art, and if you want to send us some fan art or letters, just drop us a line using the contactify link to your right ->

Quiz!

2009-02-13T08:47:00.000-05:00

A Spök-spök inspired Photohunt quiz has been created by LEon. It's pretty tricky, and we're still trying to figure it out here at the HQ. Check out LEon's blog and let us know if you solve it!
