MIWU Crystal Cave

Self-produced art toys are designer collectibles created and manufactured independently by the artist or small teams without the backing of a large toy company or mass-market brand. These toys are often highly personal, artistic expressions and are usually made in limited runs. Key Characteristics include independent creation where the artist is in control of the entire process from concept, sculpting, and painting to production and packaging. These are usually made in small batches, often 10–100 pieces, which adds to their rarity, made using materials like resin, sofubi (Japanese soft vinyl), or 3D-printed components. Jin-woo Woo and DADA-Miwoo married and have worked since 2015. Woo, an animator, and DADA, a fine artist, have come together to create various artworks. He mostly works on creating the toys and she paints the colors. And Min-ji Im, who makes fabric items such as scarf and cape, also joined them as a team. Now they are happy traveling in space with Miwu. BURNING MONSTER’s toys come in two versions: artist version and normal version. The artist version is 100% hand-painted limited edition and sold at higher prices than the normal version.
