For my money,
InstincToy really made their waves with the release of "Muckey," the tilting head/opening mouth aspect really evolving expressiveness in vinyl to a new level. So it makes sense that their second bear character, "Gyawo," is taking things even further, beyond even adding the ability to sit (like their "Curio" character)! This debut colorway is titled "Forest Bear (An Incident In A Forest One Day)" and is limited to 150 pieces, a third of which were
already sold at several conventions and another third are committed to various retailers, leaving only 50 pieces for this international lottery drawing!
The "Gyawo" comes with two interchangable hand options, open palms and clenched fists, the latter of which is perfect for holding the accompanying tree branch accessory. But certainly the most memorable aspect is the tongue… Building off of the "Muckey" body structure, "Gyawo" has a highly expressive mouth, the teeth in the upper jaw being capable of being angled differently, and the tongue rides on a ball joint for mobility!
And, finally, the erosion monster "Fluffy" has attached itself to the backside of "Gyawo" just like it is seen on "Muckey," but poor "Gyawo" also was eroded by the "Liquid" creature as well, disguising itself as an alternate tongue that can launch out of the mouth! Definitely not bad for a mere ¥11000 (approx. $105) apiece! Those interested in applying to win the ability to buy one of these should read the submission guidelines
