Nothing good will come of this.
There will be tears.
Nothing can become of nothing.
All hearts will grow cold and weary.

First Stoked you put a Coil song on this. Second are you implying collecting Astro Mu 5 is a bad idea? Like its some sort of sickness that once started can't be controlled? .... That's absurd! That said if you know where I can score some minis or a nodder ToypunkJan that would be superhelpful. ;-)

Looper wins sofubi of the year at Designer Toy Awards? Way to maintain your street cred, DTAs. I'm sure Deadbeet was second.

In the category all about Japanese vinyl, only one of the nine finalists was Japanese. This is like when Jethro Tull won the Grammy for best heavy metal band.

Sofubi seems to be getting more and more trendy these days. Maybe collectors are getting tired of Kidrobot.
Still, REAL sofubi is Japanese. -

Yes, you're right. I keep forgetting that sofubi is a method and not a style, sorry.

Sketch I'm sure they were all made in Japan, because that's basically what sofubi means. But only one of the artists was Japanese, Restore who designed Debris Japan. Did Gargamel, Elegab, Cure, M1GO, Blobpus, Secret Base, et cetera get a look?
Looper might be sofubi but it's not Sofubi. -

Actually, sofubi means 'soft vinyl' not 'made in japan' anyone can make a sofubi. Thus, they don't necessarily need to be japanese.

Ya. Sofubi is a type of material. For example, deal maker is by Andrew bell and my plastic heart, both in New York, however it is still a sofubi figure because it is cast in soft vinyl.

I know what sofubi is! Missing my point! But we're on the internet so that's bound to happen!

I hear you Shank.
I know they don't need to be Japanese...but so many amazing original Japanese sofubi artists/pieces were terribly overlooked for the awards. Other categories were like that as well...the nature of the beast I suppose.
Not saying the Looper isn't amazing...just, spread the love XD -

Isn't Designer Toy Awards basically the Western part of the toy world celebrating itself? Maybe it's not that big a surprise after all that only one real Japanese toy was nominated?
Personally I don't give a shit about DTA. When I heard you were suppossed to vote every fucking day I lost interest. Also, my favourite blog is Lowbrownie, which was actually nominated, I think, but it has no chance in winning ever, since the blog isn't plastered with ads and gets way lesser hits each day than
for example Vinylpulse.
Awards are for losers! (Get it?) -

I can understand where you're coming from, Shank. I love Japanese toys.
Yeah, I guess like Jan I approach the DTAs kind of like the Oscars in that they're basically western.
I collect Japanese toys and despite the internets parts of the toy world there is very hard to approach from out of Japan - both in terms of info and certainly in terms of getting the toys. -

The fact that the DTAs lacked Japanese creators in a category about Japanese vinyl is the issue. A big issue in my opinion.
I wanted to add Japanese artists in the first round but gave up after I uploaded a batch and only to see one added: Chima Group
I also lost interest after having to vote every single day. How can anyone compete against someone like Jason Freeny with 42k facebook fans?

agreed!!! dude did a wonderful job on this piece!! i especially love the little skull ball in the middle hehehe
and this custom is long gone, too ^_^
the piece from tom connors, where monsterforge and i commented on was not specifically intended for the custom itself, but rather the platform / 8-ball project.
(but i must say, tom's black, gray and yellow combo were well picked colors, too ) :) -

It's pink all right. And the rub looks ace. Snybora is so cool, but maybe also one of those toys that look better in pics than in reality. Has some balance issues. He's clearly supposed to be standing on his feet but keeps falling over and rests on his tail. Last but not least, the vinyl is surprisingly soft, almost squisable. A bit harder vinyl like the one they use for example on Grody stuff would suit this figure.

Which version do you have Jan? My glow seems fine balance and squish wise, I just wished they clear coated it, as some of my sprays are flaking.

This GID one keeps falling : http://rotocasted.com/toy/297... />
My black one has better balance, but is way more squishy: http://rotocasted.com/toy/229... -

That waist! She must be starving. Probably why she's caressing those bananas. In a minute she'll have them all. Can you imagine?
