>>7446190>>7446214I found this from an old /toy/ post on 16 Oct 2017:
"Hey Everyone so I got an email from Shimamoto-san, after telling him of 4/chan /toy/'s response to MoMo. He and OE had some idea that he was getting afew sales outside of Japan, but he and OE didn't know of the level of intrest was outside of Japan.
While OE is no more, he is working on getting new AND yes BETTER MoMo's made with better quality. This is the email he sent me (with some edits for personal info reasons) along with his own English Translations:
Hello.I write an answer.
こんにちは。私は返事を書きます。
I knew that there is a web as 4ch. But it wasn't seen. When I saw and saw, a picture of MoMo appeared on it. I'm very happy.
私は、4chというWebがあることは知っていた。しかし、見た事は無かった。私が見て見ると、MoMoの画像が掲載されていた。私はとても嬉しいです。
There is an old metallic mold in China. But it's new using this whether I can reproduce and unclear.
中国には古い金型があります。しかし、これを使って新規で再生産できるかどうかは不明です。
I'm working on product development of new MoMo at present. The design is refined and it becomes strong and new.
And it'll be
to be completed first. By the end of 2018?
私は現在、新しいMoMoの製品開発に取り組んでいます。デザインが洗練され、丈夫で新しくなります。
それと、完成するのが先になります。2018年中?

So hes very surprised at his Non-Japanese audience and is glad you enjoy his figures. Hes sorry that OE had ether Really good, or really disappointing Quality for his MoMo's and hes working to make sure that doesn't happen with the new company. He hopes to get things settled by 2018 (as really all this was supposed to be out end of 2016, and comic started as the beginning of this year), and production of New MoMo's."
