From the land far far away comes Tweedle Hoots! It has has been a long time in the making, back in 2015 HERE, news surfaced and images of the collaboration project begun. Today all the right signs that the Tweedle Hoots by Swedish artist Emelie Jensen AKA Tomodachi and renowned James Young, the model maker for over 15 years at Aardman Animations, who’s behind the making of Shawn the Sheep and Wallace and Gromit, Timmy Time and Creature Comforts. Back on track and destined for ToyCon UK 2017!
Clearly another winning design from Emilie which is a little similar to a drawing she’s done in the past “KAWAII – PEEK-A-BUNNY” which we actually own.
We really love the design already and cannot wait for them to be blessed with some paint. We think it will do well as an open platform for other artists to have a fiddle with the TWEEDLE-HOOT. Hopefully, some blank DIY will be available too.
Not much more information is released but we are super excited about this resin release. With a James Young collaboration, it was always going to be a winner. Keep your eyes peeled for more information about the release but we would bet these will be ready for ToyCon UK 2017.
