TOYS Domokun Aki Mascot Strap Series 2 - Import Preorder

NCS Preorder Synopsis
«©NCSX» When Domokun started out his little cottage- industry-career, he was beloved by many stateside fans even though he only appeared on Japanese television. You can thank the magic of the internet and streaming video for his early fame. Back then, Domokun products were gobbled up by crazed passionate buyers who all wanted a little piece of the lovable brown monster. Sorta reminds us of the power of Sackboy. As the years passed and Domokun grew older, NCS noticed that consumer apathy had crept in as the volumes of Domokun products increased.

Domokun's brand had been diluted. Brown got watered down.

Eikoh's been one perpetrator of Domo's brand dilution and they perpetrate some more with a new collection of Domokun Straps. On the upper left portion of the top photo, Domokun portrays an afro-wearing maracas shaker but he changes to what we can only describe as a Buster on the upper-right corner of the photo. The other personas are a hand-fan-wielder and a sword-handler who appears droopy-eyed and unsteady. Preorders for the set of four Domokun Mascot Straps are welcome to ship in March 2010.
