Wooper Loopers

Meet Wooper Looper. He's an axolotl. Wooper is my first toy made in sofubi vinyl. I don't consider him to be kaiju, but he definitely has that great sofubi feel and tight paint application Japan is known for. Currently there are two colorways. The white painted one is a run of 100 for $60 and the unpainted pink a run of 50 at $50. Each comes in a clear bag with a wood printed header card and a poem inside. Very limited quantity still available in my webstore, www.superham.bigcartel.com.
There was also a collaborative Wooper Cavey I did with the amazingly talented Holly Stanway. Each Wooper Looper Cavey was lovingly made by hand in the A Little Stranger Studio – that’s 180 little gill stalks! Phew! Each comes with a glitter Cavey sticker, black Cavey badge (these only come with rare Caveys, they are not available to buy!), Cavey carry bag and Cavey postcard. This collaborative plush was a run of 30 made for San Diego Comic Con and sold out quickly.
Thirdly, made a couple custom 3" Wooper Looper Dunny's.
Lastly, I handmade 4 Wooper Looper plushes. They were 14" tall and stitched with a number and signature on the back. They all found good loving homes.
