I think, if there was only one girl (with axe) - would be much better.
I know about this art, but in vinyl it does not look so cool. IMHO. ) -

this is going to be so awesome next to my parra pierced, i agree with Honestcrooks that this is up there. Too bad the edition is 1000 ? but this will mean 1000 people can enjoy this figure !
-

Where you took info about the quantity? This is a trusted source?
1000 it is too many, this figure will be sold for a lower price on eBay. -

tremor is right.. this is too many. 200 would be ok, not 1000..((

Ok, I see. Limited to 1000 is the same as unlimited. Very bad.

If you are talking about "unlimited", there are only 159 still available from the kidrobot.com shop... ;-) So apparently, this will be sold out pretty soon :-)
-
11 years ago
1,000 is pretty limited for a big global release.
The coarse mini omens were limited to 800 pieces, and they are already pretty hard to come by at a decent price.
Anyway surely its about how much you love the design, not how limited/flippable the piece is? -
11 years ago
I'm a collector, I hunt for a collectible items. So limited edition has great importance for me, as for any collector I suppose. I like good designer toys, but good & rare designer toys I like much more. )
-
11 years ago
So the perceived value of the piece is as important to you as the design?
-
11 years ago
Yes. Do you have another opinion?
-
11 years ago
Its not an opinion, it was an honest question. I'm always interested to find out why people collect what they collect.

I Agree it's pricey for a 1000 edition piece but then again we don't know how much of each KAWS figure is produced aswell, and people pay top dollar for that. Is that perceived as a non collectible then or is that different because everybody wants it ?
-
11 years ago
Of course an edition is a relative value, and 1000 still limited. But as I know McBess not such famous artist. I don't understand where KR took the number of the edition. And I don't understand why KR made excitement around the figure. May be KR just tried to catch success wave of Dunny Evolved Series and Mermaid figure.
-
11 years ago
Maybe they had to make a minimum of 1000 pieces to keep the piece affordable. It's a 2 piece, 10" statue with a extra prop and a whole lot of detail. I can imagine the production cost of this being a bit higher than let's say a 8" dunny.
Anyhow, it's true that 1000 might be a bit on the high side but even if it was a ediion of 10.000, I would've bought one nonetheless. It's an amazing and affordable 3D form of his art.
And McBess is a well known artist here in Europe. Unbelievable that they made what, only 50 (?) available here? -
11 years ago
I was just typing up a reply, but HonestCrooks said exactly what I was about to say in a much more concise way.
So what he said :) -
11 years ago
I haven't been aware of McBess for long, but from what I've seen, I'm personally VERY impressed. Also, with all the new toys being released by McBess, popularity will increase quite quickly I think.
Also, when an artist isn't 'hugely' known, advertising & flaunting a toy seems like the logical choice. That way, numerous non-fans see it, become fans, and thus increase the fan-base.
Thus, i say, flaunt the hell out of new toys! -

pretty expensive indeed :( I fear I'll regret not pre-ordering it
-

I'm not really sure if it's made of vinyl, on the bottom of the product page it says "resin cast" and at the top "vinyl toy". Anyway I would have loved to get this, but it's quite a bit above my price range.

why does she stand on an R?
-

McBess uses a lot of R's in his graphic work. I think it referes to R2 - Rock & Roll.

Compared with the Viandardes, this tattooed version is kinda "pittyful" imo :D -

The figure's name is The Half Mermaid. Rename it, please.

Yep, much better un-tatooed; hope not getting a tattoed version. :/

:| Crossing fingers, i dont want a tatooed one.
-
10 years ago
It's funny that the extra tattoos (what started out as a "gift" for collectors from McBess because they were running late on delivering these Mermaids) became something that people wished they wouldn't receive :D
The hard fact of great idea, bad execution :D -
10 years ago
Yeah i agree, if the tatoos were similar to the Viandardes it would be Great. :D
-

@honest. ive seen/read people whod love to own a tatted version.. dont speak for every one ;)
-
10 years ago
@kittykittymeow666 Ofcourse there are and it wasn't my intention to speak for every one :-) Sorry if it seemed that way. It just feels like a common opinion when I bring up the tatted version of the Mermaid. And there is a difference of wanting someting because of the visual appeal or the "exclusivity". (read the Viandardes comments for that :-D )
If you're going for the exclusivity, there was told that there would be 5 pieces with tattoos, but I know already of 3 people in a radius of 20km of where I live that have a tatted version (they know McBess personally), so I'm guessing there are a lot more than just 5. -

The red version is pretty one, but I would prefer a smaller size, for example 4''. I suppose that it would reduce the price.

Y'all need to get one of these. Even if you don't have any other Sergey toys, this stands on its own. It's pretty brilliant. Apart from the beak, it looks just like a life-size human skull. The Godot series might be my favorite thing in my collection. Absurd art named after an absurd play. Sergey, is "the End of the Man" quoting Jacques Derrida?

Derrida on Rotocasted, well-played, Shankweather! Haven't seen much mention of him since my college days, long, long ago.
Anyway - back to Sergey's extremely well-executed sculpture.
Mine arrived a few days ago, and it exceeded all expectations.
The unglazed bisque was a perfect choice.
It is gorgeous, and yes, it does indeed look like a young human skull (with a beak).
Sergey, thank you so very much for creating this and setting it free in our world! -

Well, I'm not sure if Sergey can do so, but deleting a 100 pieces from your collection isn't that hard, it will only take you a few minutes.
-
11 years ago
Sergey (or another mod) did it already.. and i started with a couple, and it took way too long, id rather make a new acct at that point in time.
i just figured they could wipe it clean fairly easily.. thanks sergey, much appreciated!! (or the other mod who did it!!) -

For some reason I didn't get those GS emails, but I spent healthy 5 minutes erasing your collection from the regular interface.
No problem. -
11 years ago
oh, very sorry you had to do it indivually.. if i would have known, i would have just made a new acct! i just figured you guys had some sort of tool that could essentially erase my account.
anyways, i saw your reply on GS.. i chose to sell all of my collection (aside from my formals and two melt monsters), so i could continue to fund my very expensive moutain bike habbit.. if you think toys are expensive, try building a bicycle thats twice the cost of your flippin car!
thanks again Sergey, this place is the best =) -

Would if i could afford it right now.... but got about a million other money prioritys, it'll be months before i can even consider this.

I just popped in to say just how much I am still digging this sculpture. I held it in my hands for a bit yesterday, just staring at it and feeling the texture. This remains one of my most treasured items in my collection, and I'm extremely happy and incredibly lucky to be the custodian of it. Still very well-done, sir, thank you once again for sharing it with the world.

Anyone else think this looks like a weak, rushed, cash-in series?
-
11 years ago
I think that the postapoc series would have been more interesting if Kidrobot had invited different designers. DrilOne for example.
-
11 years ago
This is the least original series they ever released. Even the recycled designs have been reused multiple times in the series.
So I fully agree Dan. -

I thought he was pretty boring to begin with, but how could anyone design 60+ Dunnies and stay super fresh and original?
-
11 years ago
True dat, Shank. To be fair I like Huck, but have only ever really liked his customs, which I could never EVER afford.
-
11 years ago
I don't fully undertand the whole huck craze. I like some of his work. The Raku dunny for example was great. But this series isn't really doing it for me. A post apocalyptic dunny series could have been a cool idea if they had used more interesting artists. Plus Huck already had an entire dunny series to himself.
-
11 years ago
I'm not a huge dunny collector, but every time a new series comes out I usually see one or two that I get excited about. The only two that I've skipped entirely are this one and Gold Life. Just... not interesting. I think they make sense more as action figures than as art toys.
-
11 years ago
damn, i didnt know there were so many huck nay-sayers on here. makes me feel like im not the only one! i think this series is pretty unoriginal.. with the exception of the mecha dunnys.. those will be fun to paint =)
