Hi everyone,

First of all I just want to say a huge thank you to everyone for all your support so far. Without you, none of this would be possible. The blog is becoming a success and its all down to you.

Secondly, I have a very important announcement to make..

By the end of February 2013, we will be opening a dedicated UK online shop for the latest online vinyl toys, designer toys and everything of that nature.

We are currently sourcing stock at the moment and we are getting our hands on the latest Tube Monsters by VISEone, which will retail at £14.

We are also getting our hands on Brutherford’s Strawberry Ice Scream man, which will retail at £45. These 7.5″ vinyls are fantastic. The attention to detail is next to none and won the ‘Best self-produced’ award at the 2012 Designer Toy awards.

Another from Brutherford is the Limited Edition Dork Knight, which retails at £60. There is only 30 of these amazing vinyls made so if you want one, I recommend dropping us an email at takaravinyl@yahoo.com so we can put you on our list. When the shop is officially opened, we will send you a link to buy. Again, there is a limited number of these so get in there quick.

More products will be available soon. We are currently building the website, sourcing stock, etc. I f you would like to keep up to date, then please follow this blog, follow us on Twitter and Facebook. Or if you want to send me a PM, about what items you want to see in the UK, if you’re a designer, or if you would like to get involved in Takara Vinyl, please email takaravinyl@yahoo.com.
