I dunno, a Dunny was one of my first toys and I hold an effection for them.
i think Tristan Eaton did a brilliant job on the design and it's one of the best Platforms out there -

If KR are allowing Ryniak to edit the form to require new tooling, I would have liked something a bit better. Still, I would love to have this little guy.

I don't hate Dunnys as they keep the whole scene going.But artistically,I would always prefer to see a new form.Economically though,that's not always possible. :)

I also prefer original sculpts, but I think for sure there's a place for platform figures in our world.
It may have gotten out of hand at some point but these figures have a viable asthetic. If the shape is good and maliable enough (which I think the Dunny is) it provides an interesting canvas for artists.
For me the interesting aspect is having a bunch lined up together to compare the ways artists used the shaped and how they worked with it and transformed it. -

lordsketch hit the nail on the freakin head... to me it has almost nothing to do with the toy and everything to do with how the individual artists handle it. A couple of years ago Tenacious Toys put on an art show where artists used empty deodorant bottles to make pieces... the results were amazing, and it was really interesting how each artist approached the base in a totally different way.

Banksy
Ferg
J*Ryu (he might have done a commission, but I'm not counting that!).
I think Spankystokes deserves a shot; he is so committed to the industry (give him a chase!).
and I have an extra for trade. -

Some of the Japanese stuff can go for insane amounts but they generally never see the light of day on this side of the water.

I could see why a Coarse would demand such a high payment.The quality and finish,plus their attention to detail must make them very pricey to produce. :)

Of course, cost from Chima + usurious shipping from Japan = cost from Rotofugi + US shipping. Whew!

It's a fantastic piece, but I'm a bit surprised that the seam between the top and bottom pieces is so irregular. Is this characteristic of sofubi? Is sofubi the right term for this guy?

I don't really like the sofubi term, it's like calling all the toys just vinyl toys. There's so many different styles made with japanese soft vinyl.
-

Sofubi is just 'wasei-ego' http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/... />
Soft Vinyl -> Softu Binyl -> Sofubi
I like the word 'sofubi'! To me, it encompasses the soft vinyl production methods of Japan. Even though the design needs to adhere to Japanese slush moulding techniques, 'sofubi' is not a genre of style.
I guess the word is being re-used just like ‘Kaiju’? -

Sofutu Biniru it is ;)
I like the word, but I don't like the fact that manufacturing process became a posmark of the style (yes, same as kaiju). -

Sofubi Kaiju
It's interesting how the Japanese tend not to classify everything into genres. I guess thats how they can make really cool pieces.
Chima Group are fantastic <3 -
