So, what's going on with this series? This figure is totally amazing, while the others seem a bit more predictable.

These are based on Murakami's paintings and larger sculptures. I've always felt like they were a poor representation of his work, but they are at least affordable for the average collector.

Just got mine. I'm not sure if it's supposed to look "distressed", but there's black vinyl peeking through in big patches on his head. Same thing on the body, but it's glitter poking through. The sculpt is fantastic, but I'm still mulling over the paint.

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?
-
-
angel
-
804 2515 1650

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.
-
-
12 years ago
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’? -
-
angel
-
804 2515 1650

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.

I hadn't read about it before I saw it here. I read Plastic and Plush and occasionally LowBrownie. I still don't think the former has mentioned it, and the latter only mentioned it yesterday. Looks like it had popped up on Toys R Evil and Vinyl Pulse, but they're a bit too high-volume for me.

It's a lovely piece but it just won't really fit in my collection.
As I've run out of shelve space (and money) I start thinking about my collection as a whole - there might be some amazing toy/sculpture I love but I don't see how I can display it and can't justify spending the money. Unless I really fall in love :)

even though it has a sarcastic tone to it.. i agree with dans statement. you spend that much money on a piece of 'art', i think it should be free of defects..
does anyone know if they plan to make more of these? i might pick one up in a week or so, i wouldnt mind a couple more to stack!
