“STOP PUTTING TOYS IN THEM!”: AN INTERVIEW WITH SVEN IVAR DETOLF, THE INVENTOR OF THE DETOLF GLASS CABINET!

TOYFARCE INTERVIEWS:

“STOP PUTTING TOYS IN THEM!”: AN INTERVIEW WITH SVEN IVAR DETOLF, THE INVENTOR OF THE DETOLF GLASS CABINET!

“With a glass-door cabinet, you can show off as well as protect your glassware or your favorite collection.” This is the official description of the Detolf glass cabinet on IKEA’s website. If you’re a toy collector, you’re most certainly familiar with those, as we’ve seen thousands of pictures of toy collection displayed in one or more Detolfs (Detolves?)

ToyFarce managed to get an exclusive interview with Sven Ivar Detolf, the inventor of the glass cabinet, and he had some sour words to say to all toy collectors!

ToyFarce: Hi Sven, and thank you so much for doing this interview with us.

Sven Ivar Detolf: Yes. Hi. (Reminder that Sven is Swedish, therefore has limited social skills)

ToyFarce: So, Sven, how did you come up with the idea of the Detolf glass cabinet?

Sven Ivar Detolf: Well, my wife had some nice bowls and vases that she kept in a cupboard, so we couldn’t see them. I asked her if she wanted a cupboard that would be made of glass, so that we could see the nice bowls and glassware, and she said yes. So, I invented it. Then, I gave it my name.

ToyFarce: Wow, that’s…a nice story? Anyway, how happy are you to know that to this day, your Detolf are still sought after, and even sometimes hard to find, because collectors worldwide are using them to display there most precious items?

Sven Ivar Detolf: I DON’T LIKE IT.

ToyFarce: Oh…?

Sven Ivar Detolf: It’s not what I designed it for! It’s made to display bowls, vases and other glassware. Stop putting toys in them! They’re not made for that. Have you seen the promotional pictures? There’s bowls and glassware in them! Nothing else! Maybe trophies, sometimes, but even that is already too much!

ToyFarce: But surely, you can appreciate that some people come up with some great displays, adding lights and backgrounds to show off their most precious items, no?

Sven Ivar Detolf: I don’t care! Get out of my house.

So… this didn’t go well. We haven’t heard of Sven Ivar Detolf since, but an anonymous source told us that it’s not a coincidence that some of our Detolf glass cabinet sometimes “accidentally explode” when we put toys in them. ToyFarce will investigate more on that!

IKEA AND LEGO FINALLY ADMIT THAT THEY ADD EXTRA PIECES IN EVERY BOX, JUST TO MESS WITH US!

BREAKING NEWS:

IKEA AND LEGO FINALLY ADMIT THAT THEY ADD EXTRA PIECES IN EVERY BOX, JUST TO MESS WITH US!

BYGGLEK, the very first collaboration between IKEA, the giant Swedish furniture maker, and Lego, the giant Danish toymaker, is expected to be available later this week, on October 1st 2020.

How a collaboration between the 2 has not happened before, I do not have a clue. They both basically sell a product that you have to build yourself at home, so it doesn’t make sense that they waited for 2020 to finally decide on a partnership. They could have at least made the double-decker couch from the movie!

“Introducing the new BYGGLEK collection – a set of simple storage solutions and a unique set of LEGO® bricks exclusive to IKEA, that inspire kids' imagination.”

However, it was not without some controversy! ToyFarce managed to uncover a press release that was never published that mentioned that both brands share more than just products that you have to build:

They both add a few extra pieces in every box, “just to confuse the hell out of people” !

Have you ever built an IKEA Billy or Detolf to display your collection, and once it’s all done, you are left with a handful of screws and those weird long wood thingies? Do you remember building a nice Lego Star Wars set and feeling puzzled at the end of it because there is still a dozen tiny pieces left that have nowhere to go? Well, it turns out it was all on purpose!

There is even a legend that says that if you gather all the extra pieces from all the sets, you can build the ultimate secret set that nobody knows about…

Will you be picking up the BYGGLEK IKEA/Lego sets? What are your plans for it? Let us know in the comments!

HOT TOYS AND IKEA TEAM UP TO MAKE ONE SIXTH SCALE DETOLF GLASS CABINETS !

BREAKING NEWS: 

HOT TOYS AND IKEA TEAM UP TO MAKE ONE SIXTH SCALE DETOLF GLASS CABINETS !

Every action figure and toy collector knows about the IKEA Detolf glass cabinet. Most collectors have (or at least had) a few of those, which are great to display your collection. The affordable glass cabinet from the famous Swedish brand is a must-have for any collector.

 

But who has never fantasized about having one sixth scale Detolf glass cabinets for their one sixth scale figures? Well, thanks to a partnership between Hot Toys and IKEA, it will soon no longer be a fantasy, and your collection will be able to have its own collection !

An insider source has told ToyFarce News that the one sixth scale Detolf glass cabinets will soon be announced, so that your one sixth scale figures can finally display their items, such as the Hot Toys Box Art Magnets, which are one sixth scale versions of the Hot Toys figures art boxes, so that your figures can have them too. Imagine having your Infinity War Thor and Black Widow in your Detolf, displaying their own versions of the Infinity War Thor and Black Widow Art Boxes in their own Detolf!

No words yet if the IKEA patented 'random glass explosion' feature will be added to one out of 100,000 glass cabinets, but we certainly hope Hot Toys will strive for accuracy and add that to their line as well.
