While Jun Planning in Japan filed for bankruptcy (see “Jun Planning Bankrupt in Japan”), Jun Planning USA is still alive and planning new releases in 2009 and 2010, according to an announcement from the company.

 

“Jun Planning USA is a separate company, run by Yosuke Oba in Torrance, California,” according to the announcement.  “Jun Planning was set up as a new and separate company to bring iconic toys (Death Note) and licensed collectible product (The Nightmare before Christmas) to the United States.  Jun Planning USA looks forward to bringing even more new and exciting product to retailers in the U.S. and around the world.”

 

Among the products planned are figures based on Jim Henson’s Goblins of Labyrinth, due out in Spring 2010. 

 

Jun Planning remains the exclusive distributors for the Pullip products. 

 

The company also plans to announce other new licensed product for 2010 very soon.
