T9g Yumenoko Neko Edition

プリント

T9G's singular brand of monster couture is in  high gear.  After debuting the Yumenko VCD with the Kodomo edition about a month ago , he's about to drop the Neko edition from Medicom  at Aoyama fashion hot spot, The Contemporary Fix on Saturday, October 11th.  The figure stands a whopping  310mm (12+ inches) and will retail for 13,440 yen (~ $127 USD).

While the bright colored fashion flourishes and freaky plush mask make a return, you'll notice that the head sculpt is completely new and actually is closer to T9G's older toys.  Neko is cute while Kodomo was downright melancholy and a little freaky.   T9G and Medicom continue to push the boundaries of vinyl and it's a great ride.

Beyond the toy angle, it's interesting to note the fashion angle.  T9G has previously collaborated with Aoyama fashion mecca Loveless on the Loveless VCD.  Now, he's dropping a toy at The Contemporary Fix.  In the middle of this toy-fashion blend is Yuichi Yoshi who created The Contemporary Fix and is a key player at Loveless.
