UPDATE: This Friday morning, KAWS took to Instagram to unveil a new plush collectible featuring Bert from Sesame Street with the artist’s signature “XX” motif embellished on the eyes of the art object. We can assume the plush will release alongside the recently-revealed Ernie version. Check out both plushes below and stay tuned for further details.

Article originally published on October 9, 2018: KAWS took to Instagram today to showcase a possible follow-up to his collaborative Sesame Street x Uniqlo UT T-shirts. The artist took a snapshot of a plush Ernie figure, complete with KAWS’ signature X motif replacing the character’s eyes. Further teasing a future release, KAWS stated, “I’m looking forward to the next few months…” which may be a hint that fans will be able to grab the figure for themselves in the coming months.

As usual, stay tuned for information — nothing is set in stone just yet. For now, check out the figure below.

Elsewhere, KAWS teamed with MoMa for limited ‘TOGETHER’ gift cards.
