Toysoul-Exclusive BORA BORA KOALA Vinyl Figure Release - by ELZ-co. x Inscape Studio
ELZ-co. (Creators for ćŚCHING series) shares with us toynews of their latest collectible release, dropping this weekend at ToySoul in Hong Kong! Introducing "Bora Bora Koala"!
Made in collaboration With Inscape Studio, this is their FIRST VINYL figure, with this 4-inch tall available exclusively at the ToySoul 2021 (Dec 18-19). Limited to 50pcs in this colorway, priced at HK$420 per.
As well each Bora Bora Koala vinyl figure comes with an individually numbered leaf, officially 3D printed by ELZ-co. (PSST: There is also a hidden trait leaf derivative, for those who are lucky enough!). The leaf can be inserted into the slot of Bora Bora Koala’s mouth to create the effect of it sleepily munching away.
About The Character:
Born in Bora Bora, Bora Bora Koala always felt like it didn’t truly belong.
Everything here — surroundings, weather, culture etc. — was so different from where it was supposed to be, Australia.
It struggled to find a sense of belonging in this hot and humid limbo filled with smiling, enthusiastic tourists, and was grumpy all the time.
However, a mysterious encounter one day changed its mind. It started to put aside previous thoughts, open its mind and start appreciating Bora Bora from the perspective of the happy tourists. That’s when it realised, what it saw as limbo could actually be paradise to others.
Perhaps, the key to finding inner peace even in unfamiliar situations was mindfulness."
@something_elz: "ELZ-co.’s previous experience with inner-embossed effects translates to techniques also applicable in their first vinyl figure. Located in the volcano skull of the koala’s head is a negatively sculpted brain with the koala’s face, representing the sense of identity that it struggles with and is constantly searching for." heck put the IG-video below...
Bora Bora Koala is affiliated with an upcoming ambitious NFT project. Owners of the ToySoul exclusive Bora Bora Koala vinyl figure will receive priority whitelist access to the Delirious Mind Travelers NFT project presale. Further project details via mindtravelersnft.com.
