Greetings from Tsubametoy: Where Dreams Take Form

From the early days of elementary school, Bownuts harbored an unwavering passion for crafting soft vinyl figures by hand. Following a journey that led them to a sofubi factory and years of meticulous preparation, their dream blossomed into reality as they established their very own factory, paving the way for the creation of sofubi figures.

United by a shared dedication to creativity, Bownuts, a former 3DCG designer captivated by retro character aesthetics, and Yoshimura Hitomi, an artist with an affinity for tactile designs, synergized their talents to birth "Tsubametoy." Each figure they craft resonates with profound dedication, evoking the exhilaration akin to holding a sofubi doll for the first time.

Their aspiration reaches beyond visual aesthetics; they endeavor to extend the joy of hands-on interaction. With their maiden creation, "Kumamimi-chan," as a starting point, they envision our sofubi figures infusing a warm, handmade charm into daily lives, creating pockets of happiness and enjoyment for all who encounter them. Join them on this journey as we celebrate the tangible allure of artistry and share in moments of simple delight.
