I'd really like to see some close up pictures...especially of his mouth and teeth.

I say grade lame and not worth the heavy price tag... not even sure I would spend $30 much less 3k

$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.

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!

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 ?

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 ...
