 Re: Kaws Fakes / Bootlegs on the Rise ? JoeMan wrote: Watch those boots. Sometimes they look good in photos, but when they make them, they just chop the articulation apart. Most of the time the articulation is terrible, joints don't fit right- to the point where you can't even move them sometimes, you'll have gaps, there will be tears in the mushroom caps.
the worse they are the more I like them. bring it on.

Re: Kaws Fakes / Bootlegs on the Rise ? I got an amazing huge vinyl Smurf King boot. It was like $30 vs the like $300 it probably normally is. Looks good, paint's a little sloppy. It's kinda off balance though, but for the price, fuck it...

Re: Kaws Fakes / Bootlegs on the Rise ? I wanna see some crappy Mexican plaster Kaws banks. That would be cool.

Pretty decent bootleg....real wood on the mushroom scepter, fabric cape, and stamps on the feet.

Re: Kaws Fakes / Bootlegs on the Rise ? It looks like the GID of that Kaws piece is split down the middle blue/green. Boot or real, it rules!

Re: Kaws Fakes / Bootlegs on the Rise ? the gid dissected is NOT a boot, its a real mccoy.
they are indeed production samples that were not put into mass production.
verified by the OF guys.

Re: Kaws Fakes / Bootlegs on the Rise ? leinad wrote: I'm really hoping that the GID dissected is produced sometime in the future. I am, and I amn't. I'm not looking forward to spending the money or the wack ass way KAWS has been releasing things lately (8am EST!?!). And the GID figures aren't even half as cool as the Black/Grey/Brown. But I'd still have to try to buy them. What would really suck is if he did: Right Half Blue / Left Half Green Right Half Green / Left Half Blue All Green All Blue That would piss me off big time! But I could see it happening...

Re: Kaws Fakes / Bootlegs on the Rise ? Hmm, I wonder if this is a sign. Seems like every time there is a little sneak peak of something it's a secret little preview of a new release. Personally I'd love to see a GID dissected. I'd prefer part of it to be painted but whatever.

Re: Kaws Fakes / Bootlegs on the Rise ? This thing in the photo looks tiny, like a keychain (?)

Re: Kaws Fakes / Bootlegs on the Rise ? No it's definitely a full size figure. There was a comparison to a Stormtrooper Companion some where.

Re: Kaws Fakes / Bootlegs on the Rise ? My bad. For some reason (retardation?) what I assumed was a desktop is actually the floor...

Re: Kaws Fakes / Bootlegs on the Rise ? I wonder if KAWS has any other Biskup toys aside from that rainbow mini pollard?
