KIKKOUCHAN Vinyl Collectibles exclusive to Milk Magazine for May 4th Online Release
"Bondage Bunnies" might not be the "official name", but personally it best describes this pair of characters, whom are officially known as "Kikkouchan"! When "fetish" crosses over with the "cute" and collectibility culture ...!
WHAT-IS: "Kinbaku (緊縛) means "tight binding," while Kinbaku-bi (緊縛美) literally means "the beauty of tight binding." Kinbaku is a Japanese style of bondage or BDSM which involves tying a person up using simple yet visually intricate patterns..." (Wiki)
"Kikkouchan" the cute little expressionless bunny (They have their own Insta @kikkouchan) wears a "Tortoise Shell Rope Binding", and has been made into memorabillia, merchandise and is currently on Japanese crowdfunding site camp-fire.jp to be made plush too.
Featured here however, are vinyl figures scheduled for a online drop at milkcargo.com on May 4th at 12pm (presumably Hong Kong time)!
Sized 12cm tall, each priced at US$80 / HK$599, there are two color ways to collect: WHITE and BLACK - with both tied in red "rope". This Milk Magazine-exclusive is a collaboration with JOURNAL STANDARD and is made in Japan, with binding overseen by the character's creator too. In particular, the glossy-black edition is especially inspired, a visual reminder of "black-leather" in your BDSM-scenario, IMHO.
