Really wanted a Cookie Monster shirt but got my days mixed up and sold out now. Bought my daughter a shirt at least.

On the glass half full side of things, he is providing a superior quality product (vs bootlegs) to those that want the figure, but can't spend $ on the original edition.

Big fan of open editions for the masses. The larger pieces dropped ages ago so shouldn’t affect their inherent value. I think it’s great that there are more Kaws figures available than ever. Nice to have at least one thing on the market that is not fueled by bots and resellers gorging.

Kaws really needs to drop a 30” Companion though. Meow.

I disagree, If another color way was introduced that would be a different story. I understand this is a way to fight the bootleggers, but if you create a "limited edition", it should remain that way.
