The Blot would have written about this release sooner, but I really wasn’t sure what to make of it. The last few pop culture inspired releases by Kaws have been pretty lackluster, but this Snoopy (Kaws Version) vinyl figure takes the cake! Literally all Kaws did was add X’s to poor old Snoopy’s eyes. Is that art? I can only guess what Charles Schulz would say about this one! And all you Kaws apologists out there don’t try to tell me he’s trying to make a statement about commercialism or pop culture. I could have taken a sharpie to poor old Snoopy’s eyes.
Something about this figure just looks off. Oh well, I’m sure it’ll retail for around $200 and sell out in about 2.3 seconds just like the Tweety Bird figures released before this one. The Snoop (Kaws Version) vinyl figure will go on sale today, Friday October 28th at noon EST on Kawsone.com.
