 Re: KAWS Warm Regards Bar
I make art like that every morning, sometimes even twice a day! It may not be on a stick, but that just makes it easier to display. PM me if interested.

It just hasn't been this overt before. kaws look way too nice to criticize anything. even his crossbones/crossed eyes on busstop models werent meant to be a critique of advertisement. think its about fun. take whats out there: billboards, mickey mouse, etc. play with it, give it a little makeover, make something look cool. no big message - just do it!

 Re: KAWS Warm Regards Bar
I think it's funny, it's a natural step, the Japanese depiction of poo being neat little piles of soft serve. It only makes sense to put it on a sick and make it into a popsicle. Besides when you guys look at this, you see unchi. Why isn't it icecream, it's on a stick? Maybe that's why it amuses me, it could be shit, it could be ice-cream, the opposites and indifference, just mesh so well. Besides, even if we think his newest product sucks, it always make for good conversation. So thank you Kaws, for giving us something to talk about at the water cooler.

 Re: KAWS Warm Regards Bar
These remind me of those Mickey Mouse-head ice creams I used to get as a kid:  I guess that's what they're supposed to be. Kind of neat. I don't have any KAWS pieces, but he's kind of hit & miss as far as my tastes go. I like some of the companion & chum figures but this, the ashtray, the bendy snake thing... not for me.

 Re: KAWS Warm Regards Bar
I'm really not sure why, but that Mickey Mouse head somehow reminds me of Hitler.

 Re: KAWS Warm Regards Bar
 This is from hypebeast: Quote: OriginalFake release a couple of new items from their January batch of goods. Along with an Ice Cream Bar chocolate brown t-shirt, the KAWS designed Ice Cream Bar vinyl toy sees a launch as well, in three different flavors. While the t-shirt retails for ¥7,000 (Approx. $79 USD), the vinyl holds a ¥8,190 (Approx. $92 USD) price tag. Both are now available via L’intrus as well as the OriginalFake flagship store.

 Re: KAWS Warm Regards Bar
Anyone know if one has to be in Japan at the Original Fake L’intrus store to pick these up or will they be available on KAWSone?
