DEVILROBOTS is a 5 man design team established in 1997 and based in Tokyo. They are largely involved in graphic design, character designs, illustration, web designs, project planning and producing items, and their work field spans the globe, especially in Asia. The original world of “cute and blackness” takes effect with the taste of a little evil and robotic fun.
The DEVILROBOTS have been incredibly active in participating at toy events, signing sessions, conferences and presenting their works at international events.
The character TO-FU OYAKO is an internationally known symbol of the DEVILROBOTS and the Japanese trend of re-designing is one of their new specialties. They often engaged on various re-designing jobs including Disney and Sanrio characters. The DEVILROBOTS have also collaborated with global brands such as ADIDAS, BANDAI, Coca-Cola, Disney, EDWIN, HTC, Levis, Lladro, Medicom Toy, Nike, Nokia, Samsung, Sanrio, Sony, UNIQLO, etc.
The official TO-FU shop is planning to open its store in June 2013 at APM shopping mall in Hong Kong.
