LITTLE VOYAGERS by Coarse x POPMART to debut at Shanghai Toy Show 2019
When toynews of these LITTLE VOYAGERS was introduced late last month, the first impression I had was "Yay! I can finally afford to own more Coarse toys!", for which I subsequently appreciated the impending existence of these days, because I feel they truly add to the toy-ecosystem, providing more folks with chances of collecting them, other than having deep-pockets, which to me is a sure way of putting a wall around the scene, IMHO.
On the same token, it allows more folks who might not have been in the community, to actively partake of said toy-community, and that frankly is what TOYSREVIL is about these days LOL
LITTLE VOYAGERS is a collaboration between Coarse and POPMART, whereby there are two editions: "Chapter 1" (Day) and "Chapter 2" (Night) mini series of 6 x figures each composing primarily animal-themed character-designs, and a cactus!
They will debut at the coming Shanghai Toy Show 2019 (April 12-14) in the following allocations:
CHAPTER 1 ; DAY
Available via Coarse Booth B55 (900pcs)
Available via POPMART Booth A33 (150pcs)
Available via POPMART Booth (150pcs)
CHAPTER 2: NIGHT
Available via Coarse Booth B55 (556pcs)
Available via POPMART Booth A33 (102pcs)
Available via POPMART Booth (102pcs)
The first 1500 sets will be available from April 12th, each case of 6 priced at 534 RMB (approx. US$80 / SG$108), with individual blind box priced at 89 RMB (approx. US$13 / SG$18) - which is a bit pricer than their "usual" BBs ... Dare I expect online sales after STS2019? I do not see any reason not, IMHO. I eagerly await it arriving on Singapore's shores - You hear that, Action City???!! :)
