Saw the 1000% in NY last night. I dont know, but it looked really flimsy if you ask me, not digging it at all.

Flimsy?
That's the last word I would use to describe a 1000% be@rbrick.

Just saying, I wouldn't buy it. I know they are worth money, but after seeing it in person I wouldn't want it. I mean its cool to have a toy this big an all, but meh.

when I was looking at him, there was a similar sized astroboy vinyl figure right next to him. That looked amazing, I would LOVE to own that badboy.

To each his own so don't take my word as anything.

The quality on the dissected 1000% is OK but no where near as good as the original 1000%. A lot of it has to do with the choice of making a clear plastic head...which meant having that huge seam run down the middle.

The vinyl is definitely nicer but I wouldn't want to deal with the huge vinyl head turning yellow, so I'm glad they went with plastic.

I don't.
I was just saying "flimsy" isn't the right word to say you don't like it.

Just a personal perspective . . . KAWS = Hot & Cold . . . . when viewed next to the real deal Dissected the Be@rbrick interpretation looks pretty meh!

Dr Romanelli did this kinda deal with more flair a few months ago but it didn't have the KAWS hype machine to back it up.

Post Re: Kaws 400% Dissected Bearbrick
the dissecteds are one of the few things kaws has done that I like. This bearbrick version is underwhelming & could've been better.

but I'm still shaking my head in amazement at the press release announcing these
(PLEASE READ IT CAREFULLY BEFORE PURCHASE). I know some of this is supposed to reduce flipping, but come on. Is there a section of his fans that thrive on abuse?

whether you like his merch or not, you gotta admit the guy's a first-class asshole.

what press release?
:?:
i got an email saying:

Hello,

The KAWS OriginalFake Companion Be@rbrick and KAWS Warm Regards Bar
will be available today, Friday March 6th at 12PM EST on http://www.kawsone.com

Thank you,
KAWSONE


starts with "hello" and ends with "thank you". doesn't seem assholish to me. i guess the email could been automated to have said my name after "hello", but i'm over it..
