Anyone remember what the Brown 4' sold for? (And was the Black ever officially released?)

I actually enjoy this collaboration toy.

Is this the dissected or the regular companion? It doesn't say dissected, so I'm assuming it's the regular.

I have to admit, I really wasn't stoked on this at first, but for some reason it has grown on me. I'm sure they're going to be insanely expensive. :(

I'm sure they forgot to mention that it's the dissected mono. They sold the regular mono last year (I tried and failed).

For half the price, I will dress up like a companion & follow you around.
(I refuse to do the dissected, though.)

Don't be embarrassed.
I think the way the companion is slumped in the lap is adorable.
There, I said it.

I just don't need to tie up $4 grand in one single piece and then have to worry about.

"Some of the items in your cart have sold out."

ah well.

Post subject:  Re: Kaws undercover bear companion

I can't see 4k tied up in it, you can start to pull in some nice originals, watches, investments etc, etc...
Especially for vinyl with questionable stability from some pieces...

i debated buying the black bear actually. I think it's really cute.
$128 was a bit too much for me to spend today though.

I gave it a serious go....refreshed, stuck in the cart as soon as they popped up, filled out the form in a few seconds.....still got the "sold out" message at checkout. Fuck.

Got the black bear as a consolation prize.

Post subject:  Re: Kaws undercover bear companion

I don't have an extra 4k so no dissected for me. :( After not being sure on the bears I really would have liked to get one but I can't rationalize dropping $128 on one. If they were like $60ish each I would. Crazy they aren't sold out yet. I guess the US market really doesn't "get" them? A lot of KR kiddies were hating on them.

Probably why I like 'em! :D

But yeah . . . $128 apiece plus nearly $70 shipping is pretty outrageous! :(

$70 shipping?

if they were $50-75 i would have thought about one a bit more seriously.
i figured people would get this a bit more than the jpp's

still need a black one of those...

My new policy is to buy KAWS toys. I always enjoy them much more in retrospect. I skipped the 1000% Be@rbrick and the Warmest Regards bars and I feel like a chump, like the guy who didn't buy a Basquiat litho at the gallery opening.

My most-regretted collecting-related moment was that I was at 360 Toy Group when they released the Chum vinyl toy, and I didn't buy it for the $80 they were asking. Like the cyclops says, hindsight is 20.

Buy all Kaws? Buy what you like. That metophorical 'guy' probably did not like Basquiat until somebody told him he was supposed to and he read somewhere that it was worth alot of coin.
