I wonder if this will be another Japan Only release due to licensing issues like the Star Wars pieces.

The colours seem too predictable and all.
Now if it was greyscale...

Post Re: KAWS Pinocchio
after they fxxked up sculpt of both hasheeme and jpp,
be@rbricks being milked to death,
4-foot dissecteds and sorayamas still waiting to be picked up in toyshops,
latest wonderwall collab getting more hate than love
and over 700 kaws toys listed on ebay
and hipsters only enjoy lining up for bape clothes rather than original fake clothes,
time to come up with something charming like this. nice.

monotone grey would look awesome next to this colorful one
and with an omake - who could complain??? :wink:
its obvious kaws reads skullbrain!


...another homage???

If this version comes to fruition, does anyone doubt that a greyscale would follow?

This might be the first Kaws toy I've really been excited about! I love the details. The hair, the geometric legs, the size of that liar's nose!

Here is a close up look at the model of which Arrested Motion inform us Medicom is currently in the process of production and this figure is slated to be released (soon hopefully) in 2010 barring any production issues. This will be released as a package with Pinocchio & Jiminy Cricket together.

Kaws and many others are better off that Paul McCarthy (the artist who made this balloon) doesn't make toys. If he decided to, he would blow everyone out of the water.

What I would trade for some McCarthy vinyl toys...

that said, I think the "kinocchio" (?) looks amazing.

I think this looks great, but i'm getting tired of KAWS just doing versions of already existing characters. There are so many cool guys if his that he could turn into toys.

Like what? I'm trying to think of a KAWS "original" and the closest thing I can think of would be the sperm...and that's been made already.

Now that you mention it a couple more come to mind:
Blitz
Cat (?) bank

All of which were stellar releases. :lol:

I'm on the fence with this Pinochio/Jiminy set. It really is the best thing he's done in years. But...I dunno. The Chums and Companions seem more "abstract" and "iconic" - this doesn't have that feel. But if given the opportunity I'll probably attempt to purchase - especially if done with a black and grey scale, as I love triptychs.

The exhibition looks nice... I'm going down to NYC in a few weeks, and it's only about an hour out of the way - would you say it's worth the detour?

Never seen that one before. Pretty cool, what is it?
I'm guessing since I've never seen it, it's probably worth a small fortune.
