    yeah, i don't really feel this is a designer toy (yes i know it's made by kidrobot, but still)

    On one hand it's just a toy but it's also a toy by a designer toy company with the purpose of being customized by designers/artists so i think it fits!

    It has nothing to do with Kidrobot, made by TYOTOYS.

    I'd say its a designer toy, and fits. Although this is a DIY version.

    I'm with Dan; definitely a designer toy as it's been produced specifically with customising in mind as well as reflecting graffiti's influence on the scene as a whole.

    If you lived in New York you would see why these trucks are a big influence on graffiti they're everywhere in New York with graffiti all over the truck. Yes graffiti is part of the designer toy industry so making this truck relevant.

    just picked one of these trucks up today.. and what I discovered was they have many different models of these trucks . my only complaint is I think the quality could have been a little better. but all in all I think it's pretty cool, especially that you can use a whiteboard marker on them and write anything you want and erase.

    I find it surprising that many pieces are so cheap (in the general community) compared to the hours and materials put into their pieces.

  • MisterQuiche

    Here here. surprisingly the hand made / small run ones are cheaper than the more mass produced big business ones. Perhaps the artists under value their work or they just ask for what it actually costs, cutting out the middle men? personally i dont mind, my preference is always to buy direct from the artist if possible.

    For me personally, I hate to have stuff hanging around. I make so many pieces that unless I price them well I'd run out of storage space.

    I don't even want to think about the time factor and how little I'm getting per hour!

    I stand corrected, and I extend my apologies, DMS. My comment was naive, and it is no excuse, but I think I thought you designed some other toys that I found to be out of my price range....

    So, humble foot pie. All up in my grill.

    I wouldn't call Cris Rose's toys expensive either. When you consider the cost of materials, and the time and effort that goes into them, Bargain! The fact they all sell out in minutes backs that up. Plus the designs are often far better than most production toys.

    It's amazing how little I know about the people who do the works behind the scenes. and the quality of the toy we're holding in our hands is basically based on their skill and artistry.

    if anyone has info about toy sculptors please put it in the comments and I'll input it. thanks!

    Quality control seems a little more lax on this Rose than the other ones. I have all the production Rose Vamps, and so far the only one with a flaw has been this one--mine has a little drip of vinyl on the inside of his face, but it actually ends up looking like a tongue so I kind of like it.
