Rounding out the recent triumvirate of Tokyo toy shows was the opening of a Blobpus exhibition in Koenji. The show features a couple dozen top notch customs by Kaji-san of
Blobpus, one of the undisputed masters of kaiju spray.

The show, which will run for several weeks, is being held at
Invade Three, a boutique store in Koenji.

The show opening packed the venue, as the Suntory and wine flowed!

On to the toys. Kaji-san brought a grip of small, medium, and large toys, ranging from classics like the original Blobpus to a bunch of dwarfish minis and even some new characters, as well as other twisted creations brought to life by Kaji's brilliance.

I love these mini mashups. I mentioned to Kaji-san they look part cute (kawai) and part scary (kowai), so why not call them koawai! (I think I had drunk a bit by then...)
