2021 here, just watched it for the first time. Interesting that they didn't show Real Head's actual toy making process, just the painting. His stuff is super-expensive and very difficult to obtain these days, I wonder if he's upgraded to a bigger studio now?
Years on and this is still one of my favourite videos ever. I would really love more content or a series of profiles on different sofubi designers. I love how punk and DIY has found its way to physical toy art-object-media (???). Saving up to succumb to collecting in the years to come.
the toys that these guys make are really cool i would get one of each simply because each one is unique and the amount of effort put into them pretty much shows the passion they have for making a pretty awesome action figure.
I'm a toy collector myself and I personally feel that the work they have done are very remarkable. I really love the design and passion they have. The toys look great and I hope someday I can own them.
He hit on a very interesting thing regarding toy production. The people that can do all or most of the aspects of toy production in house are going to be way ahead of the game. Specially true today
They make a great team, what a good pair. Even though they have a significant age difference, it's clear that they both learn a lot about life through each other.
This was interesting and enlightening. I recently interviewed up and coming artist, Xelephant and saw his collection. Very impressive and he will be dropping his own custom toy soon.
Very cool to see that they are all made by hand. That is very rare nowadays. Any toy you can buy at the store in the west is probably made by child labor in a giant factory in China or Southeast Asia.
One thing about Japan is that there is no stigma associated with toys being only for children. As an adult toy collector of godzilla sofubi- transformers- and star wars I run into this kind of judgment all the time. I feel it's healthy to buy something for the kid who grew up too fast. Do it if it makes you happy.
Im so happy I made this. It warms my heart to see people still watch it

4:35 「常に同じだと飽きるんだよね」凄い説得力あるね。右手にウルトラマン、左手にゴジラを持っていた世代としては頑張ってほしい業界。
Thank you for bringing such a great video. I have watched it many times in the past two years, and it brings me new feelings every time I watch it.

大人が趣味を本気でやると仕事になる、っていう具体例ですね。いい顔してるなー！！
Interesting collaboration between these 2 guys. Its nice to see them enjoy what they do for a living instead of being stuck in a dead end job.
could really use more videos on vinyl toys in Japan or expand on this subject.
Agreed also more on available factories that are willing to work with smaller runs.
Just made our first LIVE vid about it.
ソフビ検索していたら８年も前の動画に出会ってしまった！
またソフビ盛り上がってきましたね！
何回も観てしまう動画です。
作家はもちろん。日本の大切な文化でもあります。
thank you for english captions, very cool sufubi
ソフビや作家さんに焦点を当ててくださるとは。興味深く拝見しました。
Loved seeing how these toys are painted! Wish they delved deeper into the actual prototyping and vinyl casting... Perhaps for another time, hint hint?
Yeah,I wanted to see the nuts and bolts of the whole process too..
I don't think they took the hint boys

well i think its better than kaws.
Wish I had more of an opportunity to speak with Mori back at NYCC a few years ago. He seems like a totally rad guy.
素敵！何かを貫く姿って最も格好いいと思うから。
what an awesome pair. hope they find success in their work!
really great video. i have loved mori's toys for years! awesome behind the scenes look at him and goto working together

トイとしてのアイコンから、ポップカルチャーのアイコンへと変化しているんですね。何れは美術的な価値を見出だされる事になるのやも知れませんね。
私もお気に入りのソフビ人形を見付けて部屋に飾りたいと思います。

What is is with Japanese and insect monsters and characters like Kamen Rider and some Godzilla monsters?
like they said in the video, they use already existing characters and make it another concept and look. might be why.
Insects in general (e.g. the Japanese beetle) are prevalent in the country. More so than just pets, they're also used as a medium for a lot of things.
intro song please
damn
佐田さんから来たでしょ？みんな
