QUICCS collabs with SMART for limited-edition toy collectible TEQ5G

Internationally acclaimed Filipino toy designer QUICCS is collaborating with SMART for TEQ5G, a limited-edition designer toy collectible exclusively designed for SMART that lucky subscribers can get a chance to win. This partnership comes at a time when designer toys have created a phenomenal following of their own.

Now more than ever, people are gravitating towards these high-quality collectibles especially with so many toymakers experimenting on designs and the numerous collaboration opportunities with different brands. It has definitely piqued the interest of most, and if you’re not in on this hype yet, you’re missing out.

TEQ5G

Juanito Maiquez aka QUICCS is a homegrown toy designer who, after a lot of determination and perseverance, has now become an internationally-renowned visual artist. QUICCS is a big deal in the fields of hip-hop, basketball, street fashion, toys, and the street art world, and part of his cred includes working with famous brands around the world to create stunning pieces that reflect his one-of-a-kind style and artistic vision.

By no small coincidence, his creativity was also partly molded by PLDT and SMART growing up. “My dad, Teody Maiquez, was an executive in PLDT and SMART for 35 years where he dedicated most of his life to,” QUICCS shared. “My sister, Luday/Angel Maiquez-Guiang who is also my manager, also worked with PLDT and SMART for a time. Back then, PLDT was known for holding art competitions, and my dad would encourage me to join every time.”

While he grew up to become a graphic designer, his main dream was to create, design, and produce his own toys. His road to becoming a famous toy designer in the Philippines was no doubt challenging, but his passion never wavered. QUICCS would eventually see his passion bear fruit, especially with the advancement and accessibility of technology.
 
That grind would eventually turn QUICCS into the internationally sought-after toy designer and artist he is now. After a long journey, his toys have become must-have icons among toy collectors and street culture aficionados all over the world, drawing tons of hype with each highly-anticipated release. He would also eventually land his career-defining partnerships with brands such as Adidas, which hugely contributed to his rising stock in the culture.

He embodies the passionate dreamer in SMART Signature customers by being a certified goal-slayer who has managed to bring his passion and love for the arts to life with the help of the world-changing power and possibilities of technology.

“You don’t need to follow the blueprint of being a traditional artist,” QUICCS said. “Back in the day, artists are expected to join art competitions, connect with galleries. Now, you can use social media as a tool to make your own gallery. You don’t have to follow the norms, there are other paths that artists can take. The world is your gallery.”
 
QUICCS’s trailblazing work and journey is fitting for his partnership with SMART , as the telco giant is also leading the way to new and limitless possibilities for its subscribers by providing the fastest 5G network in the country.
