Riffing off his popular Maguro Senpai figure, Chino Lam has designed the new Baby Sushi Mini Series for Pop Mart. Featuring 12 standard designs + at least one chase, the new minis are inspired by Nigiri sushi and feature rice bodies topped with raw seafood (or egg) and cute animal heads that match the topping. So the Ebi (shrimp) design features a shrimp head while the Tamago (egg) features a chicken head. And yes, there’s a Maguro (tuna) figure.
The Baby Sushi Mini series is available for pre-order from select retailers in the USA including myplasticheart ($10.99). Pop Mart will be offering the series directly through its retail stores in China.
The Baby Sushi Mini Series is the latest artist series Mini from blind-box specialists Pop Mart. We hear there are several more artist series in the works.
