Dave Bondi has created the Akashi, it remixing the Mickey Mouse and Super Mario. Cool or weird? If you want one? This figure is 9 inches tall, includes a removable cap and a poseable head and arms. Distributed by DKE Toys, only 250 of these are being made, at $65 US a piece. "From sculptor Dave Bondi (Mr. Bunny, Possessed) comes AKASHI , a playful homage to two of his favorite character icons shot into a particle accelerator and smashed together at the speed of light. By carefully re-mixing the respective physical features, the resulting toy blurs the boundaries of copyright and unites east and west with a brand new quirky character." |
