Kaws of Death - Bubonic Edition by 2bitHACK

2bitHack is at it again, with the latest colorway for his Kaws of Death carded figure. For those who don't know, the figure is inspired by the big hoopla caused by Kaws, and his lawyers, regarding the way some of Kaws' figures were displayed. It's summed up nicely here, by Jeremy Brautman. 2bitHack loves controversy and is also really good at making bootleg figures. His latest Kaws of Death version, Bubonic, is limited to 20 pieces and will retail for $60 plus shipping. Expect to see these become available in 2bitHacks online shop on August 15th, at 10AM PST.

One can imagine that if these sell out, 2bitHack will go for the typical Kaws 3 peat and create the "OG" colorway. Maybe then a triple carded set will come to fruition in the future. DCON maybe??

Custom RAAAR! Show pieces now available through Clutter Gallery

Over the weekend, Clutter Gallery and Dynamite Rex had a custom RAAAR! show. Based on the number of pieces already sold, it seems to be a successful opening weekend. Clutter Gallery now has all of the remaining pieces up for sale in the online gallery shop. Many great pieces are still available to be purchased.

My personal favorite from the show has to be Kevin Gosselin's submission, Nervous Rex. A sculpted RAAAR! figure, with the head turned to the side to allow the tail to be positioned in the Dino's mouth. With a sculpted head and accents pieces, it's really an amazing piece. Kevin's piece sold at the opening reception, along with many others.

The Purge - Custom Dynamite Rex by Ardabus Rubber

"The Purge", as it's titled by Ardabus Rubber, is a Custom Dynamite Rex figure for the Clutter Gallery and Dynamite Rex Custom RAAAR! group show. The Custom RAAAR! show is a collaborative group exhibition which features customs by a number of artists, utilizing RAAAR!, a Dynamite Rex figure. Ardabus Rubber's contribution features bright colors, with slight color gradients, in his typical style often seen with his art. Flowing lines, bright colors with black outlines, along with the black accents over the pink base, really brings the figure to life. If this piece doesn't sell at the show opening night, be sure to look for this and the remaining figures online at the Clutter Gallery Shop.

The Custom RAAAR! Show opens August 10th at Clutter Gallery, with a reception from 6PM-9PM, and will remain up until September 6th. If you are in the area of Beacon, NY, it wouldn't hurt to make a stop and check out all the awesome customs.

"Ring of Fire" - A Hell Lotus Custom by Obscure

As Super Cooper's Annual group show approaches, participating artists start to reveal his/her contribution for the show which has a theme of  "Music to my ears". Matt "Obscure" Perez sent over his contribution for the show which he named "Ring of Fire". Inspired by the Social Distortion version of the Johnny Cash song, Ring of Fire, Obscure decided to make his custom using a Mighty Jaxx Hell Lotus figure.

Obscure gave the Hell Lotus figure a "greaser" look, complete with leather jacket, cuffed jeans and slicked hair. Obscure also added a Social Distortion logo on the back of the jacket and gave the guy sitting in a ring of fire, a martini glass to hold. Some very good details overall, however, some extra paint work on the flames would really make them dance. Matt "Obscure" Perez is open for commissions and will also be participating in other group shows, also being held at TAG, later this year. Anyone looking to commission Obscure can do so at the following email: matthew [at] angrykoalagear [dot] com. Make sure to follow Obscure on Instagram: @obscureakg and keep up with all of his latest creations.

 

With Munky King shutting down it's retail location on Melrose, this years Super Cooper Annual Group show is going to be held at Toy Art Gallery. Opening night is going to be held on August 24th and the show will run until September 10th. Many local artists, including Super Cooper himself, are always expected to be in attendance at the show. Having gone to two of the shows in the past, I expect there to be a good turn out with lots of energy.
