    For sure, it’s really cool….for sure, it’s a piece of art…but a G? really? In times like this people are gonna spend a G on a…forgive me, ‘action figure’?

    I’ve always followed KAWS, I definitely respect his work waaaay before hypebeast mania….but dang, that’s a steep price to pay. But I guess there’s some merit to the price when Sorayama’s name gets involved.
