In the Toyz World exhibition at Colette. The winner of “Design-a-Qee” competition is now available online. Presented by French artists So-Me & Gaspirator and Toy2R, this Qee is very limited and looking good. Don’t sleep on this.
We talked about the Designer PSP cases before but here are some updates from Colette. They have their window installation from August 29th until Septmeber 3rd at the physical store. Also, they will have limited amounts of the cases online for sale starting October 1st. Check out more pictures and details at PSP-Fashion.
I have to admit that I have recently fallen in love with Frank Kozik’s Smorkin’ Labbit character. It’s just so damn good. Like the huge glow in the dark one would be perfect as a focus point in my room. Anyways, a whole new crew of mini-labbits are coming mid-september from Kidrobot! The new series has 15 different mini-labbits including some chase figures. Hooray! Vinyl Pulse.
Finally! For those of you unfamiliar with Uniqlo, they are basically the Gap of Japan, but in a good way, their products and quality are better than anybody else in that sector. Like they would crush GAP. Lots of really good quality clothes at really cheap prices. Clean and simple, high quality, no frills: just the way I like it. So anyways, this September the SOHO VICE store will become Uniqlo @ Vice. They’ve picked out the best items from their fall line to showcase at the Vice store on Lafayette before opening their official Uniqlo stores across the US. Thanks to ASF for the heads up.
So we had a look at the Polkadot Kaws Bapestas yesterday, today we find an article from Friday magazine with some more info on them and a couple more colorways. It seems as though they are ‘Pop Art’ Kaws Bapestas inspired by the dot pattern comic art of Roy Lichtenstein! It mentions Silver Bullets…Silver Bullet Comics? Interesting to see Bape getting so deep into the comic scene. Nice to see them taking a new direction as well; getting away from all the patent leather. via Kix-Files.
