ILUMINARY

A collectible figure whose face is a lit screen

Front view of a small grey figure with an oversized white shell head; the open front of the head is a black oval with two glowing yellow diamond eyes.
iLuminary is a small standing figure with a head bigger than its torso. The head is a smooth white shell, cut open across the front like a scoop; inside the opening sits a flat black oval and two yellow diamonds glowing on it. The body is rounded and soft, with clean seams at the elbows, wrists and ankles where a moulded figure would part. The face is a display, not a sculpture. Nothing on the head moves. The expression changes because the two marks on the black oval change — a triangle instead of a diamond, and the character reads differently. That keeps the shell simple enough to mould, and puts every variation into light. Made in 2024 as an art-toy character. Behind it sit a turnaround set, a second colourway, and a wardrobe of interchangeable parts, exported print-ready as a collectible.
