Re: Kaws 4' companion i remember staring at the first two 4 footers and pondering and passing... was too afraid of getting buyers remorse with a huge ass toy.

Re: Kaws 4' companion So far out of my price range that it doesn't exist.

Re: Kaws 4' companion I saw one of the original 4 footers in person yesterday and it looked good.
I do remember seeing a photo of one not too long ago that was way fucked up.
Too risky in my opinion.

Re: Kaws 4' companion I had one for about 9 months - and it was fine.
The dissected one looks VERY cool, but can you imagine a GID version? Radiation burns just form standing near it.
Hey, does anyone recall teh yen price on the prior releases?

I could have sworn there was a thread on here that said that exact same thing. That the leg collapsed or something to that extent.

Re: Kaws 4' companion What a sweet piece. It would be an asset to my house, for sure. GID in both green and blue, standing as sentinels to a doorway, that's what I NEED...

Re: Kaws 4' companion i remember 2 years ago, Lev was selling a 4' at TT booth at SDCC for $3,000. Union in the city has one and it still looks really good. Word on the street is that the original molds for the 4' companions were destroyed which is probably why the dissected version was made. All speculation of course;)
