Kenelephant Co., Ltd. (headquartered in Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo; President and CEO: Kensan Ishiyama), an art goods manufacturer, will host a pop-up event titled 'BENICOTOY POP UP in Kenelebunshitsu' at its flagship store in Ochanomizu, 'Kenelebunshitsu,' from June 25 (Thu) to July 16 (Thu), 2026, to commemorate the release of a new capsule toy by artist BENICOTOY (Beniko Toi).
BENICOTOY began creating three-dimensional dolls and accessories during high school and has since worked across diverse fields, including producing figures for celebrities, album cover figurines, and deck designs for skateboard brands. Currently, she continues to handcraft original character artworks as her primary focus.
This event celebrates the launch of the new capsule toy 'BENICOTOY Figure Mascot,' which features miniaturized versions of BENICOTOY's iconic character 'Sabotars.' The event will showcase and sell this new product along with newly created plush works featuring original characters made specifically for this occasion.
The characters, each with unique personalities and charm, display humorous and mysteriously captivating expressions. This is a rare opportunity to experience up close the warmth and sculptural artistry that only handmade creations can offer.
