Mimor Toys steps on the stage to talk about handmade soft vinyl toys, learning sofubi production from scratch, and building an entirely analog toy-making process out of a garage in Southern California.
Inspired by Kidrobot, Dunnys, Webkinz, Club Penguin, and DIY maker culture, Mimor grew up obsessed with toys as art objects before eventually teaching themself mold making, welding, electroplating, and vinyl production.
In this episode, they talk through:
- Growing up around designer toys
- The influence of Kidrobot and collectible culture
- Making plush toys, costumes, props, and drag outfits
- Learning sofubi production at home
- Safety, chemicals, and the reality of DIY vinyl production
- Collected Con and selling out their first handmade soft vinyl toys
- Community, kindness, and inclusivity in the toy scene
- Building larger vinyl toys and future ambitions
This is one of the deepest behind-the-scenes conversations we’ve had about handmade sofubi production and independent toy artistry.
