Domo nom nom

I don't know what this site is about (I guess it's about Domo's appetite), but it looks really, really nice.

Domo as Halloween Mascot for Target

2008-10-22T22:19:00.009+02:00

The AnimeNewsNetwork reports: "The Target chain of American retail stores has hired NHK Japan's Domo character as its mascot for its Halloween costume campaign, and the chain's official website is hosting an exclusive stop-motion animated short and a "making-of" video (select the "Domo Show" link on the top menu).

In addition, Target is offering a dozen Domo character goods, including milk chocolate lollipops, Halloween plush dolls, mini figures sets, tackle box with candy, plush tote with candy, chocolate dextrose game, gummy teeth candy, assorted marshmallow candy, Countdown to Halloween gummy candy, candy skewers, fabric bag with candy, candy necklaces and bracelets, and a Domo-shaped gift card with interchangeable "costumes." (Ironically, there are no Domo costumes for humans at Target.) The website has also posted Halloween-themed paper cutouts for Domo and his friends as well as a paper cutout theater in PDF format."

Somebody created a large photo set on flickr with the Domo-styled goods and candys from Target. (photo by Nuts&Gum)

Domokun meets Star Wars

2008-10-15T16:55:00.006+02:00

The digital artist Spencer Brinkerhoff III made a Domo/Star Wars-Mashup: "My friend Jess and I were talking about Domo. She had just bought Domo as Dracula and suggested that he be turned into Chewbacca. I thought it was a great idea! The funny thing is that in Japanese, Domo means 'thanks' and Baka means 'fool' or 'idiot'. I feel like it?s similar to saying, 'thanks jerk!'

Also there's an interview with Spencer on the official Star Wars Blog. And here's Domo in a Chewie-Shirt.

In our referrers we've found some cool forum thread: VooDoo from Frankfurt airbrushed his Honda's valve cover in the Domo-way - brown with beady black eyes and an open mouth revealing pointy teeth. And guys, this valve cover rocks! Want one for my Mazda.

Merry Christmas, Happy New Year!

The (unofficial) Domo-Kun Fanpage and eayz.net wish you a merry Christmas and a happy new year! Don't forget: These are the last days in which you'll get free shipping for all three Domo products you order from our friends from JList.

Domokun loves eayz.net

2006-11-30T14:24:00.001+01:00

Our friend empty (the guy who inspired ZiB to do this South Park-styled Domo) posted the following video into our infamous Msgboard:

Very cool, heh?! Domokun loves eayz.net ... and we love empty. But we're also a little bit envious, because he filmed Domo in his natural environment. Or is it just an expensive Domo Hoodie? But the truth doesn't matter, because eayz's in love with ya, empty!

Domo Calendar for 2007

2006-11-12T00:45:00.000+01:00

South Park's Domokun

2006-10-28T01:23:00.000+02:00

This nice "South Park"-styled Domo was created by ZiB from Germany's best South Park fanpage Planearium, after an idea from eayz-buddy empty. It's a pity that Domo failed to appear from Cartman & Co. so far. And please don't use this picture without ZiB's or empty's permission!

Domo's coming to a channel near you

2006-10-15T02:06:00.000+02:00

Great, really great news! The Animation Magazine reports that Nickelodeon has acquired Domo-Kun for broadcast on its international channels. It says that Nickelodeon will premiere the 26 episodes (yeah, 26! And I guess that will be 26 brand new episodes!) on its networks in Europe, Latin America, Australia and New Zealand in 2007. That's fucking awesome! Nick-Nick-Nick- Nick-Nick-Nickelodeon!
