Rare - Vintage 13” Domo Kun Kawaii Monster Alien Plushie Japanese Anime NHK-TYO

This particular Domo is Rare and hard to find here in the US. Domo（どーもくん，Domo-kun）is the official mascot of Japan's public broadcaster NHK, appearing in several 30-second stop-motion interstitial sketches, which are shown as station identification in between the channel's programming. Tsuneo Goda, a stop motion animator and character designer, created Domo for NHK in 1998 and directed a stop motion animated TV series based on the character in 2008. Goda says that by using stop motion one can “create a work filled with feeling". Domo can only communicate by producing a low-pitched noise which sounds somewhat like his own name, but other characters appear to understand him. Domo is small enough to keep with you always and great to share. Just be careful who you share your hairy monster with.
