Im dont want to drop $65 on three lightbulbs that are gonna die out eventually Thats a great question. I was wondering the same thing. After doing some research the lamps are only 3watts and the filament appears to be solid metal (most filaments in incandescents are super thin and wound tight). The major reason standard incandescent lamps burn out is because of the filament breaking. Trying not to get to techie about lighting..so to sum it all up these will not produce much light (more like a glow) and will most likely last allot longer then a standard 60watt lamp you have in your house. But I would still be interested to know the exact life rating.

 Re: Kaws x Robert Lazzerini
Wow this thread has taken a turn... But on another note, I think kaws should write a book called how to make money for dummies. The guy is definitely doing the damn thing. He built a strong enough brand that I think he can take a used toothbrush, put two x's on it and sell back to it's owner for triple the price.

 Re: Kaws x Robert Lazzerini
Got my set today and they're better than I thought they'd be (but I already liked them based on the photos). From the pictures I was thinking they'd be flatter on the "z" axis - but they've got great depth to them. And it's really fun to hold them in hand and then set them down...doesn't look like they'd stand, but they are quite sure-footed.

These guys are fucking awesome. even better than I thought they would be. But since I don't own the OG versions, I think I was surprised at the size. they are smaller than I thought. Brown is only 7 inches. Grey maybe 8 inches? How tall are the OG? Cause these guys are way shorter than either the kaws trooper / vader which is what I think I was expecting size wise.

 Re: Kaws x Robert Lazzerini
yeah, the original 99s aren't nearly the size of the vader or trooper. only around 7-8 inches and i agree,, the lazz is way cool in person! in the morning when i wake up all bleary eyed and look at him on my desk, its even more of a mind fuck

 Re: Kaws x Robert Lazzerini
I think that these guys are the same volume as the original Companions. Can't really compare by height due to the distortions. But they are about the same size.

 Re: Kaws x Robert Lazzerini
If no one else does, I'll take photos. They probably won't be very good. And I probably won't get around to it until Sunday at the earliest.

 Re: Kaws x Robert Lazzerini
Do these guys stand (think someone said above they dont, but are sure footed which confused me) - or do u just lay them down?

They stand very sturdy. No problem or wobbles to the grey and brown that I have.
