I'll just have to stare at this and then look at my old kaws.

I just opened the one I got. Only got the gray because it's the only one that stands up straight and doesn't look broken.

But like Andy said, the best thing about these is that they make you appreciate the original ones more. Really glad I didn't opt for more. Bleh.

Seeing those shots of the OG versions set against the Lazzerinis makes me like these more.
But seeing as I don't have any of the OG companions, I'm not too bothered about passing on these.

Seems those that scored a set are happy with them, nevertheless.

Uh...the whole pt of these is that they don't stand up straight like the OG.

Love how they made a different sculpt for each color...would have sucked to have had 3 of the same sculpt.

Each one has a unique distortion. They stand on their own no problem and are quite stable. It seems the key is having a tripod like stance. You can't see it but each one has a triangle of pts that touch the ground to keep it stable.

Still looks like someone microwaved some 99s, IMO....

I know....but it's one thing to look like it's wavy, surreal, or even natural like a tree branch and another to look like some kid took a blow torch to it. I just don't think the distortions were done well. IMO of course.

I'm really glad these stand...I honestly thought they were blobs that lay there.

I'm tempted to get one to see if I can hairdryer it back into the original non-distorted shape....

At first I thought these were pretty cool and just interesting looking. But after a few days of sitting on the shelf, I'm loving them about 10x. Just browsing around the collect, they really grab the eye. And with shelf lighting the waviness is even more accentuated.

I will shamefully buy all of those.

I really am digging these Kaws figures. I really enjoy and appreciate Salvador Dali's art and Surrealism in general (there are many great works of surrealist art by many talented artists). I think it's great that this style is making it's way to vinyl toy format. I do hope more toys are going to be created in a similar fashion.

just pre-ordered the black. had to lock it down. will try to get lucky on Kawsone for the brown and maybe the white, but white isn't doing it for me yet.

toyqube?

im thinking of jsut getting the black... it woul dbe nice if they showed the actual toy, and not the image that was on the shirts lol.

People are actually preordering these without having seen a pic?
Is it confirmed that the dissected side will not just be printed on ?

Good point.

Kaws is cranking out so much stuff lately, he can allow pre-orders on a concept design image, lol. What's next, pre-orders for a figure he didn't even think of yet?

Good point . . . that would look as lame as sculpted guts would look cool!

for this price I doubt it. I'm guessing it will be somewhat like the OG dissected.

regardless, i'm a sucker for dissected.

I have to say that it does actually look pretty nice. Very clean sculpt.

Doesn't look 8 inches tall

Judging by how small I think that paint bottle he's standing on is, I would say he looks like 8".

Fuck, blast me all you want, I LOVE that!

oh hells yes..!

I want that black one. But not paying crazy prices.

pretty fuckin' cool!

Great!
Hope it will not cost more than 200€...
