Toy designers Friends with You have designed a blind-box variety of small noise-making childrens' toys under the series title 'Wish Come True'. Capitalizing on bubbly, shiny, colorful plastic and plush creations, Friends with You has always managed to make the most of its figures by making them super-mega kawaii. These figures are certainly no exception, particularly with names like Fluffy Pop, Buddy Chub, Popo and Mr. TTT.

Take a gander at the following video to get an aural/visual peak at how these babies tick (and/or ping) or attend their release part at Yoyamart in NYC on February 16th and grab some while you can! And this is only the beginning! According to Vinyl Pulse, the 'Wish Come True' series is a large overarching project that will tour cities nation-wide in Spring 2008. I can't wait to see what's in store!

Since the chances that I'll be promenading down the block and suddenly trip over someone's castaway PlayStation 3 are very slim, I'm sad to say that my ability to own the upcoming exclusive title Little Big Planet rests on the same probability. This is a grievously missed opportunity for sweet looking game play and horrendously cute overload, as is demonstrated by the following videos:

Note: If anyone needs a loving home for their respective next-gen Sony game console, I'm waiting here with open arms!

Hello Vox blog! Figured you and the friends you've managed to collect over the past year deserve a holiday greeting of some sort or another. Sadly, the annual holiday card did not get made this year ... so in its place I share with you this absurdly cute ornament my siblings and I found in the tree decoration box!

Horray! Cute for Christmas!  Anyway, hope you all are safe and happy and enjoying a rest before the new year comes around.  Anyone get any sweet gifts?  My brother gave me a toaster oven to make cheese toast with and my parents gave me a bottle of vintage bub. +2 for me!

The last plush I made (which was a few weeks ago) was this Estradiol Plush.  I made 5 of them in total, one for each of the members of ERBC project members that I worked with last summer.  Since the primary animation I worked on was of estradiol's interactions with the estrogen receptor, I decided to be cute and make little estradiol blobs with happy faces on them. (kawaii? i think so.)
