Furthermore, the title is foil-stamped (black foil), the sticker portion uses fluorescent colored stickers (Lumino), and the top surface is embossed with the Hyotan-Tsugi, a character familiar to Tezuka fans, resulting in a meticulously crafted package.

[Introduction to the Hollow Workshop Brand]
This is a soft vinyl toy brand born from Ken Elephant's mission to "make the world a more interesting place."
Based in our own workshop in Sumida, Tokyo, we cherish the manufacturing techniques passed down since the Showa era, and create products through the hands of skilled craftsmen. Furthermore, we are working to strengthen our manufacturing system by creating an environment that supports new forms of expression at our overseas factories. Viewing soft vinyl as an art piece, we continue to explore its possibilities, challenging ourselves with new forms of expression in both technology and creativity.
