Create Your One-of-a-Kind Sofubi
in Tokyo
At UCHOTEN FACTORY, we offer a hands-on sofubi (soft vinyl figure) molding
workshop.
Using the factory’s original character mold, “Bunshin-chan,” you will complete every step yourself—from
color design to molding, painting, and packaging.
We also provide a mini-lecture introducing the history and techniques of sofubi, helping you deepen your
understanding of sofubi culture while having fun.
Our skilled craftsmen will carefully support you throughout the process, so beginners are more than
welcome to join.
