Kaws Astro Boy

got mine.
that release was way too easy for some reason.. sold out in 2 mins.

 

Yeah, nothing yet which is weird. Nothing in the good ol' spam file either... I got a confirmation immediately from the site, but that was it. My wife wanted to buy a second to give to her brother for Xmas, but she was too late. She was using my computer, but with completely different info... I'm hoping she didn't cancel out my order while doing so.

However, credit card website says it's been charged (pending)

Gonna be pissssssssed if I got the bump for some lame reason

 

i know some places check IP's. you may be good. check if they ran it. mine went but no email yet. they may be checking for oversell and have it only send out a certain amount at first. i may have entered my email wrong cus of autofill. but hell it may still show up!

 

ahhh in the spam. stupid apple mail doesnt get it as fast as gmail site/ app.

 

From what I heard...they ship more than one to the same address because they aren't smart enough to really look into the address...IP or physical enough.

I learned this from one of kaws people who was at The High museum in ATL when I went by while they were setting up his show.

I was THIS close to meeting him...didn't pan out, but his crew were very nice guys and chatted with me for about an hour.

 

I'm looking forward to the Black release - hopefully the hair won't look so terrible on that.

 

Well, the charge is still sitting on my card and I sent them an email just to verify. If it doesn't pan out, then I'll be adding my name under Alan's for one of these in the wants thread. I will also be waiting in the shadows for KAWS the next time he shows up in LA to have a little chat...

 

Could be right. I guess the first release doesn't fall in line with the typical "brown" colorway. Kind of a shame as I think these guys would look better in the mono and black colorways.

 

Amazingly I got thru and checked out with no problems - but no confirmation email arrived either in junk or anywhere else. FIngers x'd.....

 

doubt you'll geta response to that email...

Kaws loves to respond to emails

ended up getting one on the secondary... theres a few for $380 on that site... it ends up not that bad... i paid $85 over retail. sucks, but hey i dont wanna spend $700 on the damn thing later, that dude makes $85 but has to pay shipping, and ebay their percentage, so he's not making much.

 

Finally just got a shipping notice.

 

Received shipping confirmation about ten minutes after 12 EST.
Found it in my Gmail spam folder.

 

Thought this was dropping tomorrow for some stupid reason...lol.

 

Yeah this shit went about as smoothly as any Kawsone web release. Kudos to those who scored.

 

I got my 'heads up' email sent Thurs last night at 10pm
Fuck whatever server that was responsible for the delay

 

Wrong thread for that

Got my shipping confirmation too. Woo-hoo, eBay here I come
