Luke Chueh and Scott Tolleson get Bartholomew Punchyface with each other

Bartholomew Punchyface is the collaborative efforts of artists Luke Chueh and Scott Tolleson. Chueh's cynical narratives combined with Tolleson's nerd chic culminate into a character anyone who's had a hard time in school can empathise with. This limited edition plush bear is produced by the always progressive 3DRetro and A little Stranger


The quality of Bartholomew Punchyface is amazing with the sleeves and knee patches are doubled up in true nerd fashion. Bartholomew also sports pants that are actually cords held up with a real belt and back butt area that’s loose enough so you can give him a wedgie! Bartholomew also wears the Tolleson print with pride and will be available in three different colors.



Bartholomew Punchyface is the most pathetic nerd bear you'll ever meet but also the cutest.  You will soon be able to purchase him from 3DRetro to bully him or save him from the
other bullies out there.
