I enjoy vinyl collectable toys just as much as the next guy, but for years I have been wondering when someone would take the next step towards doing an eco-friendly collection.
Looks like Noferin artists Candy and Nick have done just that with their new collection called Pecanpals. Made from sustainable rubber tree wood. The rubber trees are grown for their sap, but when they get to about 20 years of age, their juice dries up and the trees would normally go to waste. Noferin has rescued some of these trees and hand-crafts these thoughtful and collectible friends.
The Pecanpals are 4.5” to 6.5” high characters with movable joints and have fun names like Pandacake, Fanelli and Jac Jac. They even have a fantasy homeland called Carrara Island.
The figures, limited to 200-300 each, just became available on May 5 and many of them are already sold out!
