TOYSREVIL TOYTALK: QiQi (1st recorded on FacebookLive)
My Facebook Live airing of TOYSREVIL TOYTALK Episode 4 has since ended, with this 20+minuter video fully viewable here now! The figure showcased is "QiQi" - designed by @ziqi_wu of Monsterlittle (produced by CREO Design), and first released in 2012!
This essentially is ZiQi's first ever vinyl production toy, before his beloved LITTLE DINO (produced by Unbox Industries) exploded into the toy-scene!
The QiQi I showcased in this video is the GLOSSY RED version! There is also a Matte Red Edition (seen in still images below).
This video was recorded "live" on Saturday April 11th, 2020 at 12noon Singapore time (All scheduled episodes will start at 12noon, different days). Besides this post, you can as well watch the video directly HERE on Facebook.
And while I am wholly unsure about the current availability of the figures, these were quantity & SRP (Suggested Retail Price) as I featured in 2012:
- Original Matte Red - 450pcs worldwide ($10 ex shipping)
- Gloss Black - 200pcs worldwide ($12.50 ex shipping)
- Gloss Red - 200pcs worldwide ($12.50 ex shipping)
- White Blank - *There were NOT on retail, as ZiQi wanted to make these & invite customisers to work on them!
- Black Blank with Silver-accents hand-drawn by ZiQi (TBC)
Happy Toy Hunting, folks!
Here are some snaps I took after the video recording ended. I currently both film and snap pics on my iPhone6, so can only do one task/thing at a time ... Thank you for watching and reading this post!
"QiQi is a cute and adventurous little red monster. He loves to explore and try out new things. He especially loves doing these with his friends. You will never get bored when you are with QiQi."
What I did not mention in the video, was the existence of the "Project QiQi" - which was essentially a custom-QiQi project from a variety of invited artists, who had been invited to work on the 3-inch QiQi as base of choice - culminating in a group custom show at (the inaugural) ToyConUK 2013!
