French designer Mat (Plastikmat) balances his 9 to 5 toy design career with personal projects, primarily his Yume character – a young girl aspiring to be a geisha. Now comes the impending release of the third edition of the Yume resin – the Yume Color Edition featuring a black + white design accented with blue dotted cheeks. Following the original white edition (‘09) and Black (‘10), the upcoming color edition, slated for the end of October, will apparently be the last chance to collect this figure. In addition, he’ll also soon release the final 9th piece of the OG white edition – a replacement for the original #9 which was broken prior to the 2009 release. While we’ve certainly seen geisha figures before, most notably from Tokyo Plastic, Yume offers Mat’s vision – perhaps more reflective than previous interpretations. Keep an eye on the Plastikmat online shop for both drops.
