Originally teased in prototype form here back in July, the first figure in Rockin’ Jelly Bean‘s “Freaky Monster Village” series – Dr Death – will be making an exclusive debut at Taipei Toy Festival ’15 this weekend! Inspired, sadly not by RJB’s signature erotic psychobilly art, but instead by hotrod culture and the early sofubi scene of the mid-late 90’s, the stunning, cigar smoking skull was designed and sculpted by RESTORE’s Abe Junnosuke, featuring articulation in the waist and arms as well as fully-removable cain and eyeball (read: gearshift knob!). Produced by Blackdots in an unpainted off-white soft vinyl for its first outing, Dr Death will be up for grabs alongside a number of other items at the Blackdots TTF booth (A20) on Saturday, October 9th, coming in at just NTD3000 ($92). Here’s hoping for both overseas and fully painted releases soon!
