Collaboration with SOFUBI artist and creator "Toy and Mary"! Cute circus performers! Charming and adorable SOFUBI toys because they are imperfect.
This time, we're collaborating with "TOY AND MARY", famous for [THE ROLY-POLY RIDERS], the stocky ball riders, and toy's King!
From "TOY AND MARY" came out the Toy's King Limited Edition colors!
They are available at T-BASE Japan, so check it out!
"TOY AND MARY"'s work had a retro feel to it, and it's very cute. I especially
love the use of these colors. Thank you so much for making a Limited Edition of two colors with different tastes this time!
Speaking of "TOY AND MARY", they have the stocky ball riders "Pasha the Bear" and "Minac the Elephant"!
This is a SOFUBI that can be played as a finger puppet, but it is also a very
healing SOFUBI to look at. It gives me a very nostalgic feeling. I think the
combination of the extraordinary entertaining world of the circus and the familiar toy of the SOFUBI from childhood makes up a very nice work.
One of the cutest things I'd like to tell you is that the eyes are stars! The image color of the Toy's King is red, so they used the image color, and the part where they made the eyes stars is really cute!
"TOY AND MARY" is the creator of "the stocky ball riders of a delightful circus troupe. Today, they are practicing ball riding. However, the ball doesn't go well because it gets squished due to their round bodies. But they keep on practicing. Dreaming of becoming a circus star one day..." is the story.
It's funny, isn't it? And cute!

TOY AND MARY's sculpting is cute, but this coloring is just so cute!
According to a glimpse I hears, they just debuted in November of 2020! And this is the quality and world view! In fact, one of out salesmen actually met with them and interviewed them about the episode, so I'd like to share of it with you!
As for their own thoughts on SOFUBI is:
"It's not a product, it's an art work. It's a work made by a person's sensibility, even if it's a little distorted or not perfect. That's why it's lovely and dear. I like art soft vinyl that feels like that, and I myself like that. I also want to make such a work. "
That's what they said! As I said, it's just my personal feeling, but I think that
cuteness and attachment naturally or instinctively arise from shapes that are not perfectly arranged on the left, right, up and down, and I feel artistry in such imperfections.
I think it's the imperfections that make them so appealing, or maybe it's the fact that they're really carefully sculpted. Even though it is a work of art, I can feel the importance of the handmade feel. It's a work of art with a very warm feeling.
I also talk about it in detail on YouTube.
