Ep. 230 Toys on Tap w/ Fabricio: From Brazil to Japan and back: Fabricio’s Journey Through Art, Animation, and Toys

This week we're diving into the mind of Fabricio, a Brazilian-born 3D artist and toy designer whose creative path spans continents and mediums. From drawing comic book heroes in a small town to animating Pokémon films in Japan, Fabricio’s journey is packed with bold moves, artistic grit, and a love for storytelling through sculpture.

Hear how a childhood obsession with G.I. Joe and a Marvel mentor set the stage for his evolution as a creator, and how he’s now breaking into the indie toy world with figures that are as massive in personality as they are in size (yes, we talk about his 8 cm sofubi “Frank”).
