We’ve been watching the development of Mai Zi’s standout urban vinyl JOURrNEY figures (Chinese social media). We’re happy to report that he’s recently launched an official project page, Jourrney.com, in anticipation of a release shortly. JOURrNEY follows the adventures of two road warriors – Judy and Cody, finding adventure and each other.
With their throwback urban vinyl aesthetic, Judy and Cody will likely appeal to collectors who enjoyed the first few waves of vinyl art toys from HK and Asia –- way, way back when. Mai Zi’s new 9” figure’s catch the eye with their exaggerated proportions and over-the-top fashion. Set against a shelf of current art toys, the JOURrNEY figures will immediately stand apart. In addition to the classic editions (350 pcs each), shown above (in a slightly early form), Mai Zi will also release special editions of each in a different mono paint scheme (150 pcs each). If you’re interested in these, be sure to follow Mai Zi on instagram sign up for the mailing list over at JOURrNEY
I love the style of these figures. Well done!
