 Re: Kaws vs YUE MINJUN
I'd really like to see some close up pictures...especially of his mouth and teeth.

 Re: Kaws vs YUE MINJUN
hmmm... just looks like some freaky perv in a diaper to me... I say grade lame and not worth the heavy price tag... not even sure I would spend $30 much less 3k just another mans opinion...

 Re: Kaws vs YUE MINJUN
$2000.00 per toy, huh? X5 toys. Way beyond my means...
Not the biggest Kaws fan. But I actually like the KxYMJ piece.

this brings to mind the old zen koan:
Q: What is the cost of two one-trick ponys? A: 2,000.

 Re: Kaws vs YUE MINJUN
I do like the looniness of this piece. It is a demented piece of cheer. But if it's going to cost this much, I'll be spending on things like food, home improvement, gachapon, etc. No malice here, I hope he sells the whole show in 5 minutes!

 Re: Kaws vs YUE MINJUN
The dog and the freaky/perverted 'diaper' guy are the stand out pieces in this set imho, not too impressed by the other sculpts. Also hard to grasp what makes 'em gel in a set ?

 Re: Kaws vs YUE MINJUN
If I can find any way to get the Yue Min Jun, I'll do it. His paintings are so intense, and this is a great collab - obvious cues from both, but it hangs together as well as if it had no history. Maybe I can find somebody who'll swap one toward a Murakami ...
