It’s nice to see the UK having a bigger part in the designer toy world- we have a bunch of talented and amazing artists, and with UK companies collaborating and releasing pieces from some of the top names in the scene, there's never been a better time to be a UK artist.

London based Arts Unknown was start in 2009 by art enthusiasts Paul Delfgou and Daniel Kohn. Arts Unkown is dedicated to making exclusive vinyl toys of the highest quality, from both well-known and unknown artists alike. Despite being around for a few years now and teasing us with drawings, pictures and info on artists involved, many fans- myself included- have been left waiting and wondering when they where actually gonna release something.

Well, good news if you’ve been waiting for more info: each piece has a run of 350 pieces, including a one in six chase colorway as well as a members-only colorway. The Baseman and Doktor A pieces stand at 8” tall and will retail for $100, the Frank Kozik set stands at 8” tall (4” for the little elephant) and will retail for $110.
After what seems like forever, it’s great to finally see some pics of these- especially the Doktor A piece. So far they look fantastic and a great price for something so limited. The Baseman and Kozik pieces are set to arrive in stores in July and the Doktor A piece sometime in August, be sure to check these out when they hit stores no doubt they’ll sell fast.
