A special follow-up to Amos Toys’ popular Wrestling Elves toys will release later this month. The toys were originally a 3D transformation of album art for Juno Mak’s Chapel of Dawn CD. This special mono colorway of the Wrestling Elves will be available to the Japanese public on December 20th at Amos Toys (Japan). However a further compliment will be available to the UK Webstore and at Hong Kong’s SiLLY THING.
For artist Juno Mak’s Chapel of Dawn, this latest release of products on Saturday, November 24th marks over three years of careful preparation and planning. A recent interview provides readers with the insights behind his brand. This first release of clothing includes four different t-shirts, Hotdog, Skull, The Elf and the Bat. The Hot Dog design incorporates Juno’s affection for B movies as it is inspired by Rob Zombie’s House of 1000 Corpses, the Skull print was masterminded by artist Eric Elms and features two tongues protruding from the eye sockets holding a cross and hotdog at each extremity. The Elf print is derived from Chapel of Dawn’s mascot, one half of the Wrestling Elves. The final Bat design includes an Eric Elm designed logo with Juno’s preferred "chubby font" and glitter effect. A further Chapel of Dawn characteristic is slight distressing at the edges of each shirt.
The whole Chapel of Dawn experience is further compounded with each t-shirt being packaged with special printed tissue paper and baby blue dust bag.
Aside from the release of these t-shirts, a series of tote bags and the James Jarvis designed Wrestling Elves toy (based on the characters seen on the Chapel of Dawn CD cover).
Only a few select stores around the world will run this first collection of Chapel of Dawn. They include SiLLY THING (Hong Kong), Supply (Sydney), Someday (Melbourne), Union, Hideout Store (London), Colette (Paris), Firmament (Berlin) and Sold Out.

Earlier this month, TK from SiLLY THING previewed their latest foray into the toy segment with their Chapel of Dawn Wrestling Elves created in association with Amos Toys. It was said that much thought and mathematically equations were needed to produce a figure which could replicate the same vision as seen on Juno Mak’s album art for his disc Chapel of Dawn. The album art was originally conceived by James Jarvis. Here’s a new updated look providing a view of both the Elves wrestling and separated. The Elves represent a struggle between good and bad. Look for these to hit the Amos Shop and SiLLY THING outlets at the end of November.
