PINANA THE PINEAPPLE BUN GIRL by Helen Tam x Unbox Industries

Hong Kong based artist Helen Tam (of Cafe de Bello) and Unbox Industries have worked together "to bring Helen's unique yet whimsical style into three dimensions, the result has realised a beautifully rendered interpretation that is sure to warm the hearts of any collector."


Making a debut at the recent Toy Soul (and on the blog in #2018ToySoulToyWatch), the 5.5" tall vinyl incarnation of PINANA THE PINEAPPLE BUN GIRL has since launched for pre-orders online here. for US$55 per (No quantities mentioned).


I'd first come across the character creation via Ms Production Co of the figure in resin (whom I'd reviewed HERE), and am quite surprised and delighted to see the lil'lady being made into vinyl now, with a sculpt and shone that makes it look like a "porcelain" figure - at least via online images.
