Mannequins behaving badly: the most unhinged 29 minutes of your life.
Welcome to the world of the Fuccon Family, aka Oh Mikey!, a bizarre and amazing mannequin drama that has taken Japan by storm. Based on a popular independent film, OH! Mikey is the bizarre and hilarious story of the Fuccon family, who have come from America to live in Japan, despite the fact that they are mannequins. Some episodes of the series were a little too spicy to air, and determined unfit for airing and were cut from the broadcast version. However, these cut scenes have been restored in HARDCORE where you get to see cut scenes from 8 different episodes.

Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Oh! Mikey originated from Kyoto-based artist Yoshimasa Ishibashi's video installations, bridging experimental art and viral television.
The 'hardcore' label refers specifically to broadcast-censored content, not adult film conventions—though the ambiguity is absolutely intentional.
