Only days away from ToyCon UK 2022 something strange but beautiful has landed at The Toy Chronicle headquarters! Back in April, the fine folks at URDU announched their expansion to their range of art collectables. Over the past few months, we have seen Hong Kong based URDU utilise LINE FRIENDS official licence and tuned them into designer toys! Now, something totally different is coming! URDU adds their take on the fascination of Caudex Plants! Green fingers around the world have been addicted to growing and looking after Pachypodium Gracilius plants and now URDU presents to you the first line of Garden of Caudex Plants without having the headache of looking after the real thing! Pachypodium Gracilius is a species of Pachypodium endemic to Madagascar. The plant trunk is pachycaul, and typically short and fat. It produces yellow flowers (wiki) URDU have magically given them golden leaves! We doubt you have seen one like these before, plus there is no need to water these.
Colour of the Moon. Golden leaves. Is it a plant or an art?]
We have the prototype and will be on display at ToyCon UK this weekend! Attendees will have the chance to pre-order GARDEN Moon Edition at our very own booth! Possibly your new centrepiece, and UK collectors will be the first in the West to get your hands on one and to check it out in person before the HYPE of Caudex Plants settles in the West!
