About the event
ABOUT THE SPEAKER: David Vonner has designed some of your favorite toys, action figures, and collectibles -- from the rock band KISS to your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man and the Superstars of the WWE. David has also designed and developed products for notable companies such as Spencer Gifts, Marvel, Spinmaster, Hasbro and Mattel; work that has generated hundreds of millions of dollars in sales revenue.
As a 20-year toy Industry veteran, David was also involved with the design and development of the wildly popular collector action figure line Marvel Legends, as well as the creation of the Marvel Universe action figure line, many of which has led the to the current superhero-genre film and toy boom many of us enjoy today. Having received various Toy Industry Awards, David most recently served as Mattel’s Design Manager overseeing WWE, and is a Pop Culture fanatic that loves to be a kid at heart! David can also be seen discussing his love for pop culture and toys in the Netflix’s docu-series “The Toys That Made Us.”
