I love these! Simple, cute and just pure awesomeness. I had heard about Cuppy but was never sure on how to get them since Refreshment is located in Japan. By the time I found Refreshment's website and store, all the Cuppy figures were long sold out. Aya Takeuchi is creator/artist/owner of Refreshment.
It wasn't until SDCC 2010, when I saw these in person. I couldn't believe what I was seeing. Needless to say I was so happy to finally get a few. These little guys are a bit under 3" tall. Will have a more in depth look later.
Spotted the Cuppy figures at the Fig-Lab / Crossover Booth (more on this later). I think I picked up a few that night and the rest the last day of the con. These were definitely one of the highlights of SDCC last year. I picked up all but the Rainbow version. The Rainbow version was a special one by Artist Shef in Japan. If you collect Kaiju or Japanese figures then you would notice that a lot of the rainbow figures were done by Shef. The Rainbow Cuppy was a bit tougher to get as it was released at one of the shows in Japan. I was lucky enough to order one from Refreshment.
If anyone has any leads on any versions not shown here, send us an email.
