Has anyone bought anything from this shop?

How do you do it! I click buy now and it says contact shop and there’s a form with lots of Japanese writing so I can’t read it.

Can anyone help?

Genius

It's gotten to the point where effort and thought are just... well... not worth it and not even an afterthought.
It boils down to memes for all... machine made, idea free, best buy now, memes for all. Value judged by cost.

Guy Denning ... can I just ask ... why an edition of 23 and not 24?

... did one break?

Limited edition with 23 colour ways.. need it, please

Because the 3 was next to the 2 on the keyboard and in the fashion of true modern 'creative' circles I couldn't be arsed with the effort of moving my finger to the right just that little bit more. It might be mistaken for 'effort' and I wouldn't want to be accused of 'effort' ffs. I'm going for that raw and authentic street thing like...

... thanks for clarifying ... my OCD was getting the better of me ... it being an odd number type of thing ... but now I see that it is perfectly reasonable and I can add 23 as a number I can also use in the future ... thank you ...

Not sure if this is the proper place to post since this is merch, not official Banksy, but here it is:

In 2017, Brandalism and Medicom Toy released a collectible figure inspired by Banksy’s ’Monkey Sign’ artwork – the famous street art stencil of a monkey wearing a sign with the phrase “Do Nothing, You’ll Live Forever.” While the first edition featured a predominantly white makeup, the latest piece boasts a black-and-white colorway in a striking paint drip motif. The edition marks the second launch by the cohorts with the all-black figure of Banksy’s ‘Flower Bomber‘ artwork having been the inaugural release by the duo back in March.

The 14-inch-tall ‘Monkey Sign’ figure will release exclusively at the Medicom Toy Exhibition in Tokyo this July 20 for roughly $443 USD. In related news, Medicom Toy will launch apparel collaborations with UNDERCOVER, fragment design, and BAPE at the forthcoming exhibit.

Does anybody know what the reason is why they only seem to sell these in Asia and not in Europe? I've seen some of the figures in US stores but have yet to see them in the EU..

[Happy Shopper]

I'm wondering why the changed the text... Maybe something they could actually be sued for.

Medicom export very little outside of Japan, is probably part of it, at least the don't have huge amount of retailers that stock, and they do no shipping / sales outside themselves.

Just found this.
It seems legit considering what else is sitting around in this living room.

Its all about perspective

[Morfx]

To be honest, it doesn't look like the girl, there too many bloons and they are the wrong shape.. can't see the relevance..
Good taste though 👍

It's supposed to be the Palestine wall piece, not the original Girl with Balloon.

I see a guy that has a boatload of new money, very little individual taste, and who basically just hops aboard whatever the flavor of the month happens to be.
