You’ll also be able to cop a series of limited-edition collectibles, created in collaboration with AllRightsReserved, including a soft toy pack, a limited edition bath toy, and a “Hong Kong Stop” T-Shirt and tote bag. There is also a 170cm floating bed “for KAWS fans to enjoy the floating sensation themselves.” The plush set features three 20 inches KAWS Companion stuffed dolls done in the artist’s signature black, white and brown color schemes. Additionally, the plushes feature bendable appendages which offer an array of pose options. Limited to 2000 units, each set will come in a special numbered KAWS : HOLIDAY Hong Kong box. Who’s ready to get some?
