I was just looking on ebay and saw just how much companions go for now. HOLY SHIT is all I have to say ! I sold mine for 400 each about 2 years ago. I wish i kept them now.
Yeah I'm kicking myself for not picking up a 5yl at that price. It's all about Kanye. He just had to release that silly youtube vid of him flexing his collecting muscle.
Yeah, I was looking a few weeks back and was amazed. Looks like if you start putting out a whole bunch of crap it makes your past successes that much more desirable.
Yeah, every now and then I think of selling them to buy another motorcycle or a car...but I still enjoy the 5YL and Chums and don't really need another bike or a car. Weirdly my wife won't let me sell the Dissecteds!
I think the prices are gonna spike when after Saturday. Going up in a REAL auction house. Should be interesting to say the least. Their estimates are really low also.
S'funny, I just posted EXACTLY The same sentiment 'elsewhere' . . . Luckily I bought 'em for $400 each about 2 years ago . . . thankyou Geo!
Wish Id bought the grey dissected when it was released, then I would have the 3 amigos. Still the black and the original are the better colours. IMO dissected is his best stuff.
I can't find it, but he made a video for his blog or something of him sitting in his office proclaiming that Kaws was the greatest toy designer ever and everyone should own a Dissected. Prices have been steady rising since then.
Yeah the best I can do is this pic of him in his office with the Pink Twins. Hard to see but they're on the desk next to the iMac.
I think cornbluth said kanye looks like a newborn baby in his nursery. he had all types of stupid pink shag rugs and squishy chairs.. then all his kaws w/ the glitter twins and all. he looked like a wannabe gangster smurf.
Soon...when searching for the video I stumbled upon a posting on his blog about how the Luke Chueh x Wonderwall toy just dropped in JP.
