I don't think I saw this posted yet - how tall is he? Very excited to see it in vinyl

oh man i am soooo excited about the takoshi vinyl!

fantastic sculpt that will look great bunched in with some vintage masked heroes

Ill be glazing two apes up today. Excited to see them come out of the kiln.
I think the ape is about the same height as Takoshi. It's like a large sized figure, ten inches or so. I'll measure them up later.
Yeah I had made a couple takoshi with holes in his hands for holding a weapon but I haven't envisioned a weapon yet.

Amazing work! Love the Takoshi and ape designs.
You've got a great sensibility of color which you've obviously mastered in that media.
They're really beautiful and I can't stop coming back to this thread to admire them.

The heads look like they have decanter stoppers, can they hold liquid?
I'd love to pour some wine at the dinner table from a Takoshi! ; )

Thanks!
Decanter is a great idea, Id have to do a bit of modifying to make it work but I may try one:)

^ Ralph also wants to know if you can make the mini Ikakumora it comes with into a shot glass.

You know me too well Dave. ; )

Oh wow, super stoked!

Sneak peak of an Ape at TAG this weekend

^^^ Great stuff

Amazing work! I'm blown away!

Very nice! Is that a "Marusan Blue" glaze?

That's not what the bottle said but ill go with it
Garamon tribute
Thanks for the words!

Love the ape! You brought your own style to him, which is great - it is easy to get saturated by more simians, but I love this guy. Great balance of cuteness to menacing. I totally concur with the Marusan blue too, even if it just from the photo.

I am excited to see the full vinyl version of Takoshi at the show.

Thanks to everyone who stopped by the TAG show last night, it was a blast!
Great to finally meet some of you from the board. As well great to have met LASH and Kenth( sorry Kenth for mangling the Japanese language, I'm out of practice)

Hi, this is Yoshi from Kenth Toy Works! This is actually my first posting at Skullbrain! lol It was so nice to see you at TAG show and I wish I could help you guys to have more conversation. Keep in touch! Thank you!

Welcome to the board Yoshi. I think a lot of us are excited to see what Kenth Toy Works has coming out in the future. I really like your Clockwork Orange figure, it's a great tribute.

Thank you so much! I love Muntiki's Sofubi version of Taokoshi! It's nice and big!!! Since we released our first Sofubi at same time, we should exchange pieces and paint!!!

Oh man, those Takoshis are just amazing! And the little bonus dudes, holy cow, I am so jealous now of the TAG attendees. That is a really nice green vinyl. I can't wait for another release of these guys.

I really really hope the Ape gets released in vinyl too!! Amazing sculpts every time

Thanks guys, yeah I'm pretty excited to see takoshi in vinyl form
There's talk of redoing the helmet mold to add a slit in the back for easier removal.


Definitely! Ill shoot you a pm soon with an idea

So awesome, bought one. Love the green.

Looove the Ikakumoras and Takoshis! Do you know if there are plans to have a production version of the Ikakumora released? Other Takoshis in the work?

Does anyone know if TAG will ship First Class to Canada if asked? I'm not paying $40 in shipping for sure... Anyone close by who'd ship to me?
