Does this happen to you sometimes? when you think about someone that you’ve not heard from for a while and they magically appear! Well in this case with Kevin Nam of Inami Toyland and now with a revamped brand. Changing from Inami Toyland to inami toys which includes new logo and a flashy new website. Kevin sent in his long awaited release the Mecha Top!
“Presenting the next-gen Rock-Paper-Scissors Top! The Mecha Top is designed as a robotic mining exosuit. Each Top uses real cold-cast metal for the handle and drill. As an added feature, the Pilot is posable by turning to face any direction. Each Mecha Top also comes with a rock base for display purposes. The play feature is very simple to use. Just spin it and once it stops whichever hand is raised is Mecha Top’s move.”
“Also, for the first time I’ll be giving people an inside look at my process. I made a video documenting the journey of creating the Mecha Top. There’s lots of hand sculpting action and toymaking know-how so I hope you all enjoy it!”
