"NOZILLA" by Noger Chen x Blackseed Toy


What started out as a 2D-painting, has since been adapted directly into a collectible toy, with "NOZILLA" by Noger Chen x Blackseed Toy currently up for pre-orders! myplasticheart has it priced at US$57.99, with a Dec 2019 ship.

I personally adore the "utilitarian"-vibe of the body-form and sculpt, and never debuted that this would be made collectible, ever since sharing the image of the painting on my Facebook LOL


Based on Taiwanese illustrator Noger Chen's painting, the character is in turn based on his childhood memories - of Godzilla, playing video games (Check out the original painting posted/embedded below) - with the resulting 6-inch tall vinyl most recently on display at the Black Seed booth in Taipei Toy Festival 2019 (Oct 10-13). Each figure comes with three detachable/hand-held accessories.


Besides mph, you might also want to stay updated to the worldwide pre-order info via Insta @goodzila825, particularly for Asia-locales (more sensible shipping costs), and also for more "Childhood Kaiju Memories"!

很榮幸被邀請參加1982kids X ?回憶mix開幕展 本週日6/23開始到7/26,這幅畫作(是畫作,不是實體玩具哦!)將會與眾多亞洲藝術家的作品一起在麗芳老樓展出,這是好吉拉作品的第一次公開展出與販售,拜託大家務必來看一波啊! - 名稱/ 逃避怪獸 セハンシラ (日文發音:細漢時拉) - 創作理念/ 『如果小時候是一組玩具,他會是什麼樣子?』 小時候常在路邊或小書局看到盜版的廉價吊卡玩具,內容常是將A主角套用在B動畫的配件上,然後再加上C影集的武器,這種奇特的現象就像是小時候的記憶,是混雜的、多重的。所以我用玩具中最常出現的吊卡玩具形式,來重塑我的小時候。 - 被阿公阿嬤帶大的我,常常是中、日、台語夾雜,紙板上的標題用了日文「セハンシラ」,唸起來就像是台語的「細漢時拉」。 印象中,小時候的我很愛逃避,不管我要面對的現實是什麼,只要有這些塑膠製品、低畫質影像和黑白漫畫,我就有任意門,可以馬上逃離現場,不論是逃去恐龍戰隊的暴龍駕駛艙中、還是機器戰警的近未來世界,或是逃去錄影帶裡1984哥吉拉的廢墟新宿裡。 - 這個現象,長大後也一樣。 - 電影《藍色大門》裡說:「留下什麼,我們就成為什麼樣的-大人。」 幸好,我留下了這些。 - #1982小時候#Goodzila 好吉拉#麗芳 #麗芳老樓 #老王說這就是人生 #詹式幽默 #ZOO toys# #pezzeep #6月23日7月25日 #在麗芳2F#台灣 — 覺得興奮──在麗芳。 #1982小時候#靠邊走藝術空間#準備開展 #麗芳 #麗芳老樓 #老王說這就是人生 #詹式幽默 #1982小時候 #Zootoys#pezzeep #6月23日7月26日 #在麗芳2F
