Sometimes good things do come to those that wait! At this year's San Diego Comic-Con, Jesse Hernandez unveiled his outlaw of death, El Bandito Muerto, and yesterday Kidrobot put its remaining stock of the black and grey vinyl figure up for sale on its website. Now those of us who originally missed out on this crazy new figure by not attending Comic-Con can add one to our collections…and at retail prices to boot!
Fully armed and ominous, this malevolent 8” black and grey pistol-packing bandit blends Hernandez' signature indigenous style with a seriously dark and edgy street vibe. The removable sombrero and sculpted detailed serape lay claim to Bandito's and Hernandez' own Mexican roots, but the colossal sculpted sneakers and somber six-shooter are less than subtle clues to this mean muerto's approach to life and death on the streets. Limited to only 250 pieces, the San Diego Comic-Con 2011 Exclusive El Bandito Muerto Vinyl Figure by Jesse Hernandez can now be purchased at the Kidrobot online store for $100.
