Looks like t-shirts, pins and moveable cutouts......all probably made to order.

Not limited, I assume.....more like timed editions???

I like these Skeleton cutouts. My favorite color is green. 48 bucks each seem okay to me.

You want to buy my figures? Ill even throw in a teapot :)
The big edition figures you buy and teapots are just ways for him to be in your home. Guy is succeeding apparently. :D I can't predict the future but I wouldn't buy those toys with the idea of reselling them. It's just more to say you have one and it being accessible.

I'm in a bunch of the FB groups and anytime he releases a new statue, you get 50 of the same comments about him being stale and all that and done with him...then he shows a picture of this amazing table and a new statue and its 200 comments of people excited to purchase the new statue and wanting a table.

Also, looked at his auction prices for paintings and all of them have been selling mid estimate or higher end of estimate. So thats def not hurting due to fortnite and toys. Last set of No Reply went for almost $110k.

Good for him. Challenge himself to go beyond just what everyone expects him to do. Shits boring to do the same thing over and over
You went deep diving over sarcasm. I like KAWS. I didnt buy the teapot but I own plenty of figures and books because I started in kidrobot land. I cant stand FORNITE. As I said the game is a POS. KAWS can sell all he wants. I dont like FORTNITE. It's acceptable to not like seeing an artist you enjoy in a game you dislike. I'd much rather see him collab with MINECRAFT(not really possible) than SHITFORT. I dont think anyone thinks KAWS is hurting with his worldwide appeal. His figures hands down are faked the most of any artist.

EDIT: He is close to Coons level. I rarely comment on youtube videos but when I saw his piece destroy the estimate at auction I commented in excitement. So no, I dont think he is hurting. Sorry I wont use sarcasm.

Its comparable to seeing Laurent working with OddCity, granted OddCity and FORTNITE are on different ends of the spectrum, it's the premise of the collab.

Speaking of Roman, anyone know how he’s doing?

Typically he will also drop through his site as well on a later (announced) date.
