Rowen Wagner – Head of Design, Moose Toys
For the past 14 years, Rowen has enjoyed the wild ride of overseeing the development of innovative Toys – from a singing and pooping flamingo, through to a balloon dog that bursts to life. Based in Melbourne, Australia, Moose Toys quickly became a serious player in the toy industry with gangbuster brands like Shopkins, Little Live Pets, Magic Mixies, Bluey, and Mr Beast Lab – the toy line in partnership with famous YouTuber Mr Beast. Their brands are sold in 180+ countries, have won a raft of top-toy awards, and often include entertainment and content bolstered by wonderful voice talent from across the globe.
Rowen comes from a diverse Product Design background including automotive, street furniture, homewares and most recently toys. He has worked extensively in Asia as well as North America, Central America and Europe. Together with his team of 25 creatives, Rowen is living his dream in the business of creating toys that make children happy.
