Sofubi TV Special??
This just popped up on Youtube.. Some cool footage in there!! Production, fan collections and price guides.. I have no idea what they are saying though..
with those molds, I would think those are the yamomark guy and the iluilu guy, no?
This video was recorded and uploaded by Doki Satoru on to Youtube. The first person is Doki Satoru of Yamomark and the second person is indeed Akihiro Sakaguchi of Iru Iru.

either way, always nice to see such footage.
Ya, I think so. In the clip before the collection, you can see him selling them.
Great stuff, thanks!

Wish there were more videos like this around but they are few and far between... If anybody has any media content from box sets over the years, please rip them and post them!!

Haha, that was pretty sweet. Wild to see Ollie get a shout out! I noticed someone wearing a Super7 Shirt in the crowd, and I also spotted Datadub in the background once or twice, and Jon from Rampage toys as well! neat. I miss Japan..

Nice to see so many makers getting some national media coverage.
I believe the event video was from the recent Doki Doki show in Osaka, which I didn't attend.
I recognize the factory. It's in Osaka and is owned by Jungle. Here's a video I shot of the factory + its production process:
