The second colourway for the Shiba Inu giant doggo robot Mechtorian is coming this week. After the debut “Teatime at Fortnum and Mason” edition last month, to welcome the spring, Mugi takes the antiqued pink colour typical of the Parisian rose-raspberry-lychee Ispahan macaron cake, or is it just Sakura… . Oh!,
Mugi Teaworthy is full of personality, with his bouncy invitation-to-play pose, curled metallic fluffy tail revealing a riveted punk behind, and three interchangeable hats to fit any mood. Also quite an eye catcher standing 6 inches tall and 8 inches long. Being a Shiba Inu owner myself and a fan of steampunk “(Sir) Mugi Teaworthy” hit an instant connection. They are sold in a poly bag with a header card designed by Doktor A.
This release is the culmination of a 2-year production process by Doktor A and Lowbrowee, with credits to Willy Kao (digital sculpt) and Science Patrol (wax and molds production).
