BENICOTOY began creating three-dimensional dolls and accessories in high school. She has since worked across diverse fields, including producing figures for celebrities, designing figures for album covers, and creating deck designs for skateboard brands. Currently, she continues to handcraft original character works as her primary focus.
To celebrate the launch of her new capsule toy series 'BENICOTOY Figure Mascot,' featuring miniature versions of her iconic character 'Saboters,' the event will showcase and sell this new product line along with newly created original plush character works made especially for this occasion.
The characters, each with their own unique and charmingly whimsical expressions, radiate individual personalities and appeal. This event offers a rare opportunity to experience up close the warmth and sculptural artistry unique to handmade creations.
