Post Kaws identification
Quick question:

On the current opening page, the one with the cases from the RAD store, the first pic has an interesting toy in the left case on the 2nd shelf.

It is a Kaws figure, I believe, since it has the disctinctive cartoony skull & crossbones head, but it is bright yellow and appears to have a body like the Michelin Man.

What is this figure actually called? I'm interested in this bulky figure, which in contrast to the Mickey Mouse-ish Companion (which I think is the correct name, please correct me if I'm wrong.)

Thanks in advance for any info you might be able to provide.

Groovy!

Thanks, everyone! I really like the bulky Kaws "big body" model!

The Chum, eh?

Have to look a bit for some of those... was there ever a glow one? ^_^

No glow. Yellow, Pink, Black, White, and Clear. All of them were editions of 500 except the Clear which was 1000.
They'll show up on eBay from time to time - Black and Clear more than the others. A Black on just recently ended for about $300 I believe. The White one is very elusive and sells for the most even though the edition size is the same as the other colors.
Good luck!
