This new creature is a type of puppet monster. It is 'mof-mof' (a Japanese onomatopoeic expression for something soft and puffy), so I would like to name this creature 'Mof.'

Meet Torao, the First Mof!
 
The very first Mof is Torao. His name comes from Tora (meaning ?gtiger?h in Japanese) plus -o, a traditional ending for male names.
 
Torao has a slightly goofy look?probably because of his outward-turned eyes?but that?fs part of his charm. He wears a belly warmer and a lucky charm necklace, just like the wandering hero from old Japanese movies, Tora-san.
 
Yes, Torao is ready to travel far and wide?c but what he wants most is a forever home.
Give this wandering Mof a place to belong.
Would you like to be the one to give Torao his forever home?

Materials: Faux fur, styrofoam (eyes), felt, plastic (mouth).

* The eyes are currently finished with matte acrylic paint, which gives Torao a soft, handmade look.
If you prefer a shinier, more polished finish, I can apply a clear lacquer coating for free before shipping.
Just let me know your preference when you order!
 
NB?@?F?@For photography purposes, a light support (such as a small plastic bottle) may be placed inside Torao. It will be shipped without any internal support, so it may be a little flat, just like a soft plush puppet should be.
