Just received my RESTORE Debris Japan Sofubi thanks to the awesomeness of Luke and Amy at Lulubell Toys. The first thing that struck me was how small it is. We knew the size, but didn't expect it to be so petite. I think it just appears to be big in photographs due to all the detail. The second thing that immediately struck was how detailed it is. From the paper prayer slips to the cloth fundoshi, metal bell, bracelets and resin knife, Debris Japan Sofubi screams attention to detail. The paint application is amazing with subtle shading and even veins. Lastly, it's not made of soft vinyl that you might associate with Gargamel, RealxHead or Secret Base. The vinyl used seems to be more like the kind that 3A uses for it's robots. It's harder but yields incredible details in the muscles as you can see.
I had very high hopes for this toy and can say with amazement that it has eclipsed all of my expectations. Well done Abe-san..!!
