kaws this kaws that.
you're right, he's been living off the same designs for the last 7 years or better.
and other then putting bones & x's on bathing ape characters he hasn't done much new, oh and the warm regards dude, which was cool.
I would have got two companions to sell on ebay, and hustle some stupid white kid wanting to pay $600 for hype.

Kaws is so overrated, there, I said it. That animation was dope, but he didnt do it. he's been living off the same character for years....

Who actually has the luxury of buying designer vinyl toys?
It's like a fringe group inside a fringe group inside a fringe group.

i hear what you are saying and it all makes sense, but at the same time just cuz its popular doesnt mean it sucks. On the flip side i know a handful of people that only like indy movies, music and vintage clothes for sake of example, just cuz. And half the time the shit sucks. I guess its all in ones attitude.

do i think people should be taken advantage of, no $100 shits, but hey, that seems to be the way some things are these days.....
haha, this is incredible, $750 hoodie, $600 trucker cap!!!!!

i hear you with the one character jams, it gets old. but, can't you kinda look at design the same way? Electric Heats stuff is dope, but a lot of it looks similar. i don't know, i'ts just people being creative, you know.

Would you like a vintage skateboard and a japanese girlfriend with that lifestyle sir?

There's some real paucity of ideas going around these days, isn't there? Dalek, Bape, Kaws, all these one character dudes. Let's do one thing and run it into the ground, add some cool designer friend hype and pump out some shit plastic statuettes and call it collectibles and watch the suckers shell out 100s of dollars for it. Just so you can have some plastic mickey mouse diss sitting in your living room, giving you indie cred and that disposable income status. And people complain about advertising.
Boo.

kaws...
...is not a nice guy. A bit of a snob if you ask me. I don't care who you are, or what you have made, there's no need to be a d*ck just when someone was trying to be nice to you.
