Surprised I haven't seen a Wonder Goblin thread here yet, so here we go. He's putting out a bunch of new stuff lately with some pretty cool components. Here is his first sofubi toy, the Queen Hagopuss: View this post on Instagram He followed that up with Budfoot that comes with its own bong omake and weed-like flocking. Here is a one-off he did: View this post on Instagram Now this one is a resin piece he did with his girlfriend where she crocheted the clothing, part of a new yokai series collaboration. The top one is a pretty awesome video done in the style of "Yokai Monsters": View this post on Instagram View this post on Instagram
I like his work quite a bit. I bought the first release of fungaloid man he made with skinner. He also has a drop for an amazing hagopus in an hour
I have a hagopuss and it is beyond beautiful! Also the tripus looks insane Black light brings it to life!
Hagopuss is a bit too... vaginal. I'm really over the whole penis/vagina shock factor of new sofubi. I do really love the little oni though. That devilish grin is pretty hard to resist, and I love the idea of the crocheted robe. He's got this look that's saying "I've been waiting for you to stumble upon me, nyehehehe"... yeah, running into him in the woods would probably not end well. Then again, I may be very biased because I adore yokai.
I really really enjoy his entire style and work. I've got the first unpainted glow release of the Queen Hagopuss and I look forward to one day getting a painted one as well as a Budfoot. He's teased that he'll be making a soft vinyl version of the aforementioned Fungaloid man as well and I am suuuuper stoked for that guy. Protip: look up the hashtag "Sofubuds" for many of his and other works which go along the Budfoot crew...
Wonder Goblin's dino kaiju is coming soon: https://www.wondergoblin.com/blog/2023/3/7/fantasaurs-premiere-3112023 Very fun gimmicks with the baby backpack and egg-hatching feature. And you don't see purple sofubi that often.
Oh man, I love this. Dinos are great to begin with, but dino with a baby? Even better! That’s why I loved the Stegoforest so much, it came with a little baby.
