The new head being released is designed and sculpted by Kiyoka Ikeda of Gargamel. Gargamel doesn't actually do the manufacturing. Gargamel just designs and sculpt. Gargamel uses the Obitsu vinyl factory to do the actual producing of their toys.

 Re: New Gargamel Figs!
Right, but they kind of facilitate the production. I just meant that Mike probably didn't contact the factory, he probably contacted Gargamel and they set up the production.

You are right, Kiyoka and Naoyo sculpt and paint but production of the actual metal molds and pulling of the vinyl are done by other "factories" like Obitsu and others.

 Re: New Gargamel Figs!
TiredChildren wrote: Isn't Misty Fog just Le Merde? Or is that a company, sort of like how the Super7 toys are produced by Gargamel or Secret Base, but released by Super7? These are at least sculpted by Kiyoka, so I figured they should be in this thread.  All Super7 toys are produced(and/or designed) by Super7. Otherwise it will say "Super7 x Gargamel" or "Super7 x SecretBase". Super7's relation to Gargamel is that Kiyoka sculpts the toys. Super7 has used several Japanese factories including Obitsu.

 Re: New Gargamel Figs!
So, it is going to be a raffle? Open only to Japanese residents? I translated the page, but am still having trouble.

 Re: New Gargamel Figs!
If Google translate is not steering me wrong (when has that ever happened hahaha) It appears that Gargamel will now be at SDCC and selling all customs no regular limited items.

 Re: New Gargamel Figs!
Very good news.
I don't really collect the 1-offs but I'm glad that they are still in business.
