Sad the guy died but I coincidentally was going to buy a print from his site 2 weeks ago. It was $150 and I was waiting to get paid before I bought it. I just checked tonight and that same print is now $350. Pretty dirtbag move to raise the prices of his prints by more than 150%
Totally. His wife should be fine living off his 401K and Poster Guy pension for the rest of her life!
STFU.
Luls. Thx 4 doing this 4 me.
P.S. How "coincidental" dat duke just happened to wait to buy the poster until right after duke died.
Pure coincidence.

From left to right:

STFU.
He had more than a poster guy pension, he had his own record label, was the chief creative officer of Kidrobot among many other things. The guy has a net worth of 1.6 million dollars. I don't need his sad wife raising money cuz now they iz poor. He didn't unexpectedly die at 28 years old. Dude was in his 60s. So how about you STFU. I get white knighting girls but old dudes who make nirvana posters? You can drymount all the way off.

And can codeblue make a post without saying 'luls'? Total dork.
He can. He also says "Duke" a lot. So, I think that counts.

Can someone direct me to this Kozik store that’s taking advantage of his grieving fan base?

It was huge that Frank stepped up and make Kidrobot profitable when they were closing all stores. This is after all of his other accomplishments. Hope NECA doesnt sell Kidrobot to Funko. I know Kidrobot has drastically changed but I just had to buy the Sket Coke Dunny.

Piemel sighting!
P.S. Who runs that visible vibrations site?
Looks like kozik def had some kind of partnership with them. I assume that's the site duke is talking about.
