like...just designs them? or handmakes them too? o_o

That'd be an awful lot of work for ANYONE to do, of course they're not handmade. She sorta designs them, i mean they're based on her... but i think she picks which outfits get turned into ayupans. I dunno WHY they first came around really. I don't think we ever got any info on that. Who knows? Maybe ayu just wanted little cartoon cute figures of her out there. Or maybe someone at axev just said "hey, here's an idea!" and the ayupan was born.

^ That's possible.. probably same for those toy trucks and lorries.

They probably thought: "hmmm. People will buy anything that is somehow related to Hamasaki, let us release toys that look like her, then make a cartoon out of it and sell hundreds of different ayupan-products!".... all money-making...but it's cool xD

*mental image of Ayu working alone in a sweatshop, laboring over painting millions of little Ayupans...*
It's just some big moneymaking Avex scheme. Of course it didn't stop me from buying a whole bunch.

^ LOL XD D: poor ayu -hugs her-

That's totally interesting!!! I never knew about the origin of Ayupans either, before I chanced upon this thread!

How many versions of Ayupan is released started year 2002? They even released limited Ayupans, and special versions for Christmas, so they must be a lot! I wonder if any Ayu fans had collected the whole set of Ayupan released...

Apparently!

I thought they weren't mass-produced, like every one is different, how would you get you hands on a real one?
