#TTF2018 Online Field Report (Day 2.5/4)
And while I am physically NOT at this year's Taipei Toy Festival 2018 (October 18-21), I'd attempt to do a semblance of a "online field report" of the annual event - based off of my social media feeds (*Folks interested to share your goodies are to tag me #toysrevil, thanks) ... ONWARDS!
Released today at 2PM (Day 2 of TTF) is @halorendy's MURDOG THE BULLDOG vinyl figure, with this "Cosmic Pearl" edition limited to only 25pcs at the Kurobokan Booth A26 (NT$3,000). If I were you, I'd grab the OG colorway too (*Debuting at TTF)! And get Rendy to sketch something for you, as he is in attendance at TTF - just look for the guy in the MURDOG full-head mask! LOL
Also available from Kurobokan Booth A26 is the above SLEEPWALKER NIMBUS and COCO THE ASTRO CHIMP from @kentanworks (We last saw him unpainted) - which were painted on-stage "live" on Day 1, and will be up for Lottery Sales on Day 3/tomorrow. These are the times:
12:00PM Winner announcement
02:00PM Lottery winners purchase
@thedanielyu gives us a peek at his JIANGSHI ACOLYTE vinyl figure from Unbox Industries (previously only teased the back of different colorways), with these factory-painted 10-inchers available at the Unbox Booth A73-A74 (Price unknown). Don't forget to check out Daniel's booth A100 offerings too!
@davidzhorvath shares with folks toynews about the since Sold Out BOSSY BEAR Original collectible (*gasp*), and as well the Blue colorway for the new Bossy Bear sofubi (*there are two other colorways to be had, including TURTLE and Sun Lin-Kim's SPIDER BOOM, but don't sleep on those) ... look for his Booth A26-2 at the 1000toys/Toys To Art Showcase!
