Let’s be honest, it’s not New York Comic-Con without a release from NYC’s own L’amour Supreme! That’s why late last night Super7 announced a very special surprise release at NYCC 2011, the Royal Swirl Mongolion! Spotted in the wild city lights of New York City, little is known about the shadowy Mongolion's existence. It is more rumor and legend than actual fact. Lamour Supreme's Royal Swirl is cast in marbled baby blue and yellow vinyl with red and white spray details.
Normally The Blot’s a huge fan of marbled vinyl, but there’s something about this color combination that doesn’t work for me. I think it’s because the yellow looks dirty, which may be a result of its having been mixed with the baby blue. If the yellow had been a bright yellow resulting in a sweet UCLA style colorway this would have been a must buy for The Blot. As it is, I do really love how its bright red eyes and tongue stand out against the baby blue and yellow swirled vinyl.
The New York Comic-Con 2011 Exclusive Royal Swirl Mongolion by L’amour Supreme goes on sale today at the Super7 NYCC booth #688 for $65 each.
