Hinted at several times on the myplasticheart blog over the past couple of weeks, Lou Pimentel and mphlabs have finally released details on their first collaborative sofubi, Junior. Based on Lou’s loveable Cranston Fellows Jr. character, the soft vinyl figure is seen here as an unpainted prototype with a 4″ wingspan… Pricing, colourways and availability are still to be confirmed, so be sure to stay locked on the mph blog and dedicated Cranston Fellows Jr. Facebook page for more info soon.
Here’s the little guy’s backstory:
“Before he was Cranston Fellows Jr., this little devil bat was just known as Junior. Small, egg shaped and lovable, he was born in the underworld and was a prankster from day one. Junior likes to dance, paint, and play practical jokes. His favorite pastime is hiding in small places and jumping out to scare his mom. Yes, he’s living his toddler years to their fullest. He does not make his bed and loves making a mess. He prefers peanut M&M’s and is always looking for new adventures. Speaking of adventure, Junior would love to come home with you to start one together. You bring cookies and a map and he’ll bring the ruckus.”
