Designer Makes Action Figures to Bear Witness to HK Protests|反送中運動破百日 抗爭者公仔見證歷史

The anti-extradition bill protest in Hong Kong has lasted for over 100 days. It does not see any sign of receding despite Hong Kong Chief Executive Carrie Lam retracted the bill earlier. A group of people have made action figures that resembles anti-extradition protestors that may serve as historic remnants.


The action figures are dressed in black t-shirts and yellow jackets, wearing safety helmets, eye goggles and gas masks, they look exactly like those who took part in the anti-extradition bill protest. The toys are made with many details, at a scale of 1 to 20.

We are a group of action figure enthusiasts. I'm a designer myself, and I'm also in charge of photographing toys and action figures. The reason I made (these new action figures) is to bear witness to what happened in Hong Kong.

The anti-extradition bill protest in Hong Kong has lasted for over 100 days. After Hong Kong Chief Executive Carrie Lam retracted the bill earlier, some still carried on with the protest because not all five of these demands were met. The designer of the action figures wants to bear witness to the protest in Hong Kong.

These action figures represent the different participants in the protests, including those who are of different age and dress differently. We try to render their looks faithfully in our design.

The designer spent 2 months to make 6 unique stuffed toys that look like protestors and reporters. He said he is struck by seeing the youth standing on the frontline to fight for their future.

I can't help but wonder why has Hong Kong come to this? I'm quite sad about it and I hope the protest ends as soon as possible.

The designer said that instead of making judgment on the protest, he'd like to just bear witness to the history.



身穿黑衣黃色夾克，頭戴安全帽，護目鏡和防毒口罩，仔細一看，原來是一座香港反送中示威者的公仔，以二十分之一的比例精準打造，維妙維肖的模樣看了令人驚嘆。

反送中公仔設計師 C 表示：「其實我們是一群製做公仔的愛好者，我自己是設計師，也負責拍攝公仔，這次創作這些，就是想要記錄下，現在香港發生的事情。」

香港反送中運動已持續超過一百天。儘管特首林鄭月娥宣布撤回逃犯條例，卻沒有回應運動提出的五大訴求。設計師C想要用另類的方式，記錄下他的家鄉香港數個月不斷的抗爭活動。

反送中公仔設計師 C 表示：「這些公仔表現了香港人在這場運動中各種型態，我們看到遊行人士、或是示威者，不同年紀、不同裝扮，我們想嘗試描繪出他們的造型。」

C花了兩個月的時間，製做出六個獨特公仔，包括5位抗爭者，以及一位前線記者。看到年輕人為了自己的未來不惜站上前線，他的感觸很深。

反送中公仔設計師 C 表示：「我不禁想到。為什麼我們香港現在會變成這樣？心裡面有一種好傷心的感覺，同時也希望，事情趕快落幕。」

他說，與其定義這場運動，他選擇在一旁觀察記錄，用自己的方式見證這段歷史。
