I don’t know exactly what it is [refer to photo above], but Kaws has just announced that they’ll be available online tomorrow at noon. Whatever he is, I want him. I don’t care which colorway either. I got no information of how much it’s going to cost, though I imagine it’ll cost a pretty  penny– and I also don’t know anything about size or quantity. Does anyone out there know, please do share.

Btw, he’s also having these up for sale at: OriginalFake on Saturday. Continue reading »

I’ve been wanting to purchase the Compisition Notebooks Dunks for a while. I’d forgotten about them until a friend posted them on her flickr account and they began haunting my dreams all over again. Now, my symptoms have worsen, since the Composition Notebook dunks were also released in the AirMax 90’s design, which is my favorite sneaker.

What does this mean… I’m going to have many problems sleeping until I get my pair. My days of wearing sneakers are nearing their end as my boss no longer wants me to wear them… I plan on rebelling somewhere along the mid-year report cards time. I figure if my sneakers scream “education,” he’ll have no troubles with them. Can a New Yorker point me to the right direction in purchasing these? Danke.

p.s. I’ve upgraded to WP 2.6, so I’ll be doing some maintanance, please bear with me if things are a little slow. I do however, love it so far– great features.

We all know, from past posts with anything regarding TokyoPlastic [refer to these posts], that I love TokyoPlastic. All aspects of the duo make me happy; the people are awesome gents, their vinyl toys are simple yet amazing, and their flash videos seriously leave my eyes wanting more. Any time there are news or rumors of any TokyoPlastic figure, I suddenly find myself on their site all over again watching all of their works all over again. This time, I thought I’d take a different approach and show you the characters I want to be brought to life in 3D form so I can add them to my collection.

Let’s start with the fella above who’s part of Drum Machine’s opening sequence. He looks similar to baby koguma in body and shape, except this guy has headphones and should come equipped with drums. I acknowledge the fact that I’ll most likely never attain a black or red 4″ geisha, which came with a drum/speaker, therefore, I’m trying to get a set any way I can. Besides, when you see the little guy playing the drum, the expression on his face is filled with so much effort. Andy, Sam, please take note of this. Danke! Hit the jump to see more characters.

So, just shy of a week away from SDCC, and Erick Scarecrow has confirmed his attendance to SDCC this year. What is he going to be debuting? His dangerously serene Kissaki. I purchased the first release of his Kissaki during NYCC and now, he releases this! Did you notice the anger there? It wasn’t against the figure as much as yet another thing to add to my list of demands! I have to admit that the teal in her hair is really resonating for me. Great job Erick, now, what happened with Chelly Chainsaw?

MPH has posted my interview with Brent Nolasco on their site. This interview took place briefly before he had his solo show at MPH on June 13th. Check it out if you want to learn more about Brent and his background. [MyPlasticHeart]

It’s been a long time since I’ve posted about sneakers. Well, not really, I did write about the Tokidoki for Onitsuka sneakers– which, I’ll eventually get. I have however, been holding out on posting this image, because I’ve been trying to get my hands on a pair. Jon Burgerman teamed up with Nike to release a Magnificent 7 sneaker pack.

What’s that mean? That he designed 7 pairs of sneakers for Nike. And the one pictured above is the pair I want to wear on my feet to bed at night, now please. I’ve been in search of them since Jon posted them on his flickr. You might think, why haven’t I seen these? Well, it has a lot to do with the fact they weren’t released in the US, only in the UK. Those darn lucky bastards!

So anyone of you visiting me from the UK? Please, let me know where I can order myself a pair, or if you’d be so kind to mail them for me. I found them online at the European Footlocker, but I can’t order them. Help please. Hit the jump to see his other designs. Continue reading »

I love expressing my love for vinyl artists through different mediums. What does this mean? I own tokidoki bags and pencils. I own Amanda Vissell, Tara McPherson, Tim Biskup (and many more) stationery sets. I have stickers, and shoes, Uglydoll shirts, etc. I like to show my love and appreciation for the art they bring to my world. Jon Burgerman is really hitting the sweet spot with me lately, peep my next post to know what started it all. Now, he’s released information on a collaboration with Côte et Ciel.

Above is his very limited laptop sleeve. Only available on his site, you must leave a comment on his site specifying what size you’re interested in (32.5 x 24cm, 34 x 24.5cm and 36 x 26 cm) and he’ll contact you if anymore are available. I have no info on the price, but I’m sure that’ll be included in his response to you. Check out the site and good luck trying to get one. [Jon Burgerman's Laptop Sleeves]
