If your old standby brown Domo-kun is just not making the sparks fly for you the way he/she/it used to, these seven new varieties from Dark Horse and Toy2R will surely get the Domo-ness going. NHK's favorite mascot is back in a wild 4" Qee series figure.

Personally I'm leaning towards spiderweb Domo, there's kind of a Venom-y thing going on there and the placement of the pattern looks a bit less random than the others. I've been impressed with the Qee line and other Toy2R figures in the past, and their reach seems to be ever expanding. I'm always shocked about how popular the character of Domo has become, given its network mascot roots. It feels somewhat like buying limited runs of the NBC Peacock figures at specialty shops in Japan! 

They are available in an incredibly limited run, ranging from 500 to 750 depending on the model. At US$14.99 apiece, the figures would make an excellent stocking stuffer or gift, especially given their very limited run. Given the popularity of the 7" Qee line and their low price point, these are a sure bet to disappear quickly. These adorable Domo's can currently be ordered from Neon Monster or other Qee retailers.
