Giant Robot is proud to host a signing by Mari Inukai who’s Sekaiseifukudan series is set to launch on that very day, Saturday May 7^th. Designed by Mari Inukai, 7 different figures were meticulously created by Inner Sanctum in methods new to the toy making world. These pieces are treated like works of art, and we will also have rare and exclusive versions as well.

This special event will take place on May 7 from 2-4 p.m.

Mari Inukai is an artist  born in Japan who came to America in 1995 to pursue her art. She has worked in animation, clothing design, and shows her work in numerous galleries.

Giant Robot was born as a Los Angeles-based magazine about Asian, Asian-American, and new hybrid culture in 1994, but has evolved into a full-service pop culture provider with shops and galleries, as well as an online equivalent.
