Here is Kaiju Korner's main Wonder Festival Winter 2014 report: a look at indie toys, including sofubi, keshi, resin, and more.
Booths are arranged alphabetically.
Angel Abby
Bullmark and Yamanaya
| Really cool info board about the way the Ultraman cast hands were made. |
CCP
Chima Group
Cosmo Knight Alpha
| I heard these retailed for $300. |
| New line of minis - Cosmo Alien (Check out my previous post on the Medicom Toys booth for pics of more versions as well as protos of upcoming additions to the line.) |
| Nice Blackjack |
Dune
| Dune seems to be taking off in a hurry! |
Fewture
| Check out these spooky battle damage and intestine wielding bots. |
| What's that? There's a missile sticking out of my gut? No way, bro! |
| New additions to the Millenial line, from Slpurrt and Paul Kaiju. |

Hinomaru Ya
Juki
| Nice packaging! |
| Noice! |
Kaiju Ken
Kaizer
Linden
Marusan
Mirock and Goccodo
| Took me a few minutes to describe "pimp" to a fan waiting to get one of these. Lots of pantomime. |
Moqkeshi
| New keshi gomu maker on the scene - Moqkeshi. There's clearly a boom in keshi going on, with multiple makers securing one-day licenses to make figures based on properties, in addition to some new original keshi characters. |
Nerd One
| ...and inside the castle is one of these bottom-row keshi figures. How cool is that!! |
| Another newcomer on the scene - Newter Vision with their Mighty Mashroom line. Gotta love the accessories! |
Outer Rim
| And yet another keshi maker debuting at WF - Outer Rim, with some spectacular one-day license works right out of the gate. |
| A famous character from Lupin the 3rd. I really love the execution on this one. Check out the super thin arms and legs. |
| I like this one a lot too, from Shaman King - so unusual and highly detailed. |
Pico Pico
| Pico Smash! |
| Mordles |
Rampage Toys
| Plenty of original keshi here! |
Shamrock Arrow
| Keshi based on a Gundam character |
| Aztekaiser |
| One of Aztekaiser's enemies |
Sunguts
TT Toys
| Bigfoot! |
US Toys
Velocitron
Yamomark
| Pretty koi colors |
Yutari
Zoomoth
| Once again Zoomoth, who seems to be a leading pioneer in the modern keshi movement, brought some nice figures. |

Whew, that was a lot of work... One thing about Wonder Festival is for sure - the scale is massive!
Thanks for joining KK Toy Tours!

Thanks for coverage, Andy! As painful as it might be to see. So much good stuff.
I agree, this is simply great. Thanks for the commitment, really appreciate seeing the WF as I live on the other side of the globe :)
