    awesome! It's nice to see something new and weird that doesn't just have million spikes and buttholes all over it.

    I wonder if you'll be able to articulate the arms down so that it's elevated and standing on all three (if that makes sense).

    I'd of thought that dress would get in the way of that

    Right, the tutu may impede that kind of articulation.

    Is its name "Owl Calm" or "Owl Clam"? Totally looks like a clam instead of a tutu to me

    Clam according to Nathan's twitter. Plus the tutu is probably a clam. Looks like Spanky got it wrong. Good call!

    I love owls but don't even understand what this is trying to be or accomplish. It almost looks like a totem.

    Owls look kind of cool, but overall I think he could of picked a better character for sofubi.

    The owl + clam look out of place.

    Has a Gama-Go vibe to it. Pretty interesting. Would be cool to see it painted.

    That quadra-arm positioning is something new (to me at-least). I have mixed feelings about the sculpt overall, but I would most definitely like to see the setting of the 4 arms repeated (in a figure I like better).

    Haha!

    Pretty awesome sculpt. I think I would've liked to see some deep sea-creature monster faces instead of the owl, but it's pretty cool none the less.

    I honestly don't know what to think of this, I like the owls but I'm not really getting why an owl and clam should be mashed together... Also it's disappointing that you can't twist the arms down and use them as weird leg-hands since that tutu-clam is in the way.

    I'm not convinced you can't do this. But I agree, it would be a very big missed opportunity if you couldn't.

    absolutely agree, it could be way better without the OWL theme. I been seeing that a LOT lately.

    pretty awesome sculpt and design tho.
