The Story of Teppo the Elf Boy (tm)

The Story of Toon Santa(tm)

If you grew up in the 70's in North America, you probably spent some quality hours in December watching the Rankin/Bass stop motion classics such as the Christmas Television Favorites Santa Claus is Coming to Town, Rudoph the Red Nosed Reindeer, and a Year without a Santa Claus (and a selection of more religious programming). The Rankin/Bass vision did not seem to translate well into the era of computer animation. Meshbox Design created Toon Santa and friends with stop motion, claymation and modern techniques to create a new style that captures the warmth of the '70s era.

Toon Santa is our humble offering - a warm, friendly and uncomplicated holiday character in the same spirit as those original stop motion characters - and bring it to the world of Poser.

In 2005, the simple joy of Toon Santa found its way to the Norad Santa website - NORAD is the government agency that tracks Santa's route each Christmas. We are happy to see that at the release of Toon Santa's Christmas Village in 2008, Toon Santa is still waving in new friends to their website.
