With the small number of Japanese vinyl factories being overburdened and thus taking longer & longer periods to produce pieces, several artists that have typically released sofubi (Japanese vinyl) have been converting to soft vinyl pulled in China. Revealed by
Unbox Industries, it appears that
Paul Kaiju is joining this logical trend… having his classic "Mockbat" figure scanned — from the original sculpt — in 3D for revisitation later this year. To be released by Unbox, this is a massive game changing decision from Kaiju… will others follow his lead?
* * * UPDATE * * * "Just to end the speculation," said PaulKaiju, "I'm
NOT working with Unbox to mass produce standard bats in China. They will continue to be made in Japan and painted by me! But let me say for now, Mockbat fans will DIG what's in the works!!!" Now we're even more intrigued than before!
