Dongekima in its first version by the Taiwanese studio Kikaishinzou, a 27 cm soft vinyl robot in purple and silver, with its header card and bag.
The Piece
The machine is broad shouldered and heavily armoured, with silver joints, black panels, red details and winged shoulder plates, in the manner of the super robots of the 1970s.
It has been opened; the header and bag are included.
A Taiwan Robot in Soft Vinyl
Soft vinyl figures in Japan reach back to the 1960s: Marusan, founded in Tokyo in 1947 and remembered as the country's first plastic model maker, introduced vinyl monsters from the Ultra series in 1966. Today small studios design characters of their own in the same material and release them at events and through their own shops; HIDDY, who opened the Harajuku toy shop Secretbase in 2001, has described how the Japanese word sofubi is now used by collectors around the world.
Kikaishinzou, a designer toy maker from Taiwan whose name means mechanical heart, made this Dongekima Version 1 in purple, 27 cm, with header card and bag. More figures stand on the soft vinyl shelf, and our guide to kaiju soft vinyl from Marusan and Bullmark traces the Showa makers behind the form.
