Upcoming New Toys on TOYSREVIL (Feb/18/2011)
Luke Rook of Luubell Toys shares with us the final sculpt for Debris, Restore's evocative soft vinyl figure version of "ONI". Included in the mix as well are paper money, metal cuffs and cloth fundoshi - all the trappings of a demon on Earth, heavy Japanese lore-style. Expect a March / April release, as well color variations and "surprises" (which I reckon might well mean the character waking up at night beside you and nibble on your ear!)
Do check out http://restore-created.jimdo.com to peep more fantastical imagery, including an earlier incarnation by sculptor Junnosuke Abe.
Jin & Jorge @ Dorimuko drops updated snaps of their "Toshikage" prototype (last featured here as raw sculpt). Standing 5 inches tall, currently quantity is still being determined for the figure (how about a TOYSREVIL-Edition/Colorway? muahahaha). Meanwhile, if I miss any updated, you can check out their production blog at www.dorimuko.blogspot.com
Rummaging thru the Toy Art Gallery blog (while searching for custom previews for Alien Argus, a lost cause btw), I'd serendipitously come across a coupla sneaks for a new "Bronze From TAG" (with the image-name "Happiness" aaawww), featuring what seems to be a femme fig in a oh-gosh-cute-stance. Looking very Kaijin, and adorable!
With the launch of the NYC♥Qee Toy Fair Party at Yoyamart, folks had a chance to see the new 7 inch clear-plastic wee, featuring a custom-anatomy by Jason Freeny (above-right, teased before). Yes, this is the beginning of the new 7" Clear Qee Collection - each sporting new articulation, no less. Also note that the Qee custom was made with this earlier image in mind.
