Sofubi

Sofubi toys are hollow, lightweight, soft vinyl collectible toys. Technically, the word sofubi refers to soft vinyl toys produced in this specific style in small mom & pop workshops in Japan. Sofubi purists (collectors who specifically chase after and collect sofubi toys produced in Japan) are adamant that soft vinyl toys produced in this style in other countries are NOT sofubi. So there is an alternate word for such toys: sofvi (soft vinyl). Here are a few of the toymakers we've represented whose sofubi designs were produced in Japan: Bigshot Toyworks • Super7 • Grody Shogun • Gerald Okamura • David Horvath • James Groman • Wonder Goblin • Andrew Bell • Rampage Toys • Art Fabula • Ophelia Toys 

Side note: Chinese manufacturers are also capable of producing soft vinyl toys in this same style. We also work closely with Mile High Sofubi which is a sofubi style toy maker in Colorado, USA. So, here in this collection we are using the broader definition of sofubi-style toy making.... so added in here are soft vinyl toys in the sofubi style from all over the world.
