After we broke the news on the upcoming Kaws x Medicom Pinocchio and Jiminy Cricket toys, showcased at the artist’s first museum exhibition, we can inform you today that it looks like these will actually be coming to life.

“Upon closer inspection we noticed it was Pinocchio reworked in a style that only KAWS could do. Next to it was a museum info card: “Pinocchio and Jiminy Cricket, 2010 – Produced by Medicom Toy, Copyright Disney”.

The million dollar question was… when or IF it will be released? The answer is a definitive YES. We just confirmed that Medicom is currently in the process of production and this figure is slated to be released (soon hopefully) in 2010 barring any production issues. This will be released as a package with Pinocchio & Jiminy Cricket together.”

These are good news, as we got a good amount of excited feedback on the figure from you guys.

Surfing the web at work … as you do, I ran into this and thought i’d share.

As big Voltron fan this caught my eye, what starts out as pretty bog standard SLR transforms into The defender of the universe, himself!

and it works… apart from the big fake lens.

Today we get the first official look at the upcoming release of the CLOT x Levi’s x Medicom Toy 1000% Bearbricks. Previously the Strawberry and Watermelon Bearbricks had released in smaller sizes, on the pic here above you see them now in 100%, 400% and 1000%. We just love 1000% Bearbricks and these look really nice, perfect for the summer. Look out for a release very soon at CLOT retailers.
