JOURNEY TO THE WEST from JT Studio as Vinyl Figures
JT Studio next evolves their 1/6th-scaled “JOURNEY TO THE WEST” characters to 8-inch tall VINYL figures, which involves design-evolution to a more “urban vinyl”-vibe, including the prototype for The MONKEY KING! More info as they are unleashed .. meanwhile, stay tuned to Instagram @jeitseng for updates.
I personally have great love and respect for the “urban vinyl” genre that came out of Hong Kong during the late-90s/early-2000s, and the visual aesthetics seen here reminds me of early Eric So and even a sprinkle of Michael Lau … the design of these gentlemen got me unto this “Art Toy”-train in the very first place, oh-so-many years ago … *wistful-sigh* … if this be a “homage”, then I’m game for it!
