Being green is so hip these days that my favorite color (previously lagging behind blue and red in blind polls) has received a positive PR infusion. Writers at ToyCyte were skeptical when the Canary Yellow Domo dropped, but I have to say, personally I’m loving the rainbow of five-inchers. I don’t have much else to add to Collin’s post on the current Domo spectrum. And Plastic and Plush has done the honors of reviewing the grass green Domo here. I realize I’m in the minority with my preference for the muted, earthier shade of olive over the considerably livelier grass, but in my little corner of the world, so far as little happinesses go, you really can’t beat olive green flocked vinyl. I was stoked to receive this in the mail from Things From Another World. It’s hard not to look at this guy and smile.
TFAW had five Domo colorways in the 5.5-inch size: Classic Brown (limited edition), Olive Green (limited edition of 800), Ruby Red (limited edition of 800), Earl Grey (limited edition of 800), and Polar White (limited edition of 500), but it looks like just brown and green are still available (along with a couple 8-inchers) here. If you’re doing an under $25 Secret Santa at your office, Domo is growing in recognition amongst the masses, and this figure comes handsomely (OK not exactly the right word) packaged in a colorful window box. A good gateway toy to start an innocent bystander on vinyl collecting.
