Mamoru Miyano Doodle Inspires Stuffed Toy

Anime News Network's merchandise coverage sponsored by Tokyo Otaku Mode.

Takuya Eguchi's silly doodles are in good company. Popular voice actor Mamoru Miyano is also fond of sketching simplistic characters. One is titled "Koitsu" (or simply, "Guy") and is designed with an egg-like body, stick limbs, and silly expressions.

Anything Mamoru Miyano touches lately turns to gold, so why not his doodles? Koitsu is jumping into the 3D world with crane and lottery prizes.

Two designs will be created as 38cm (15in) high plushies, while three others will be 11cm (4.3in) cell phone straps. A Twitter account will also launch in the future with a retweet campaign. The winner will get a 50cm (19.6in) plush.
