Hermees Yellow Edition by Gary Ham

Hermees Yellow Edition Vinyl Figure by Gary Ham

Last week the fourth and final colorway of Hermees, Gary Ham’s self produced vinyl figure and the winner of the 2011 Designer Toy Award for “Best Self Produced Toy”, was released into the wild. If you missed The Blot’s review of Hermees you can check it out here, but this is definitely one killer bat! Hermees Yellow Edition has a limited edition run size of 200 figures, retails for $45 and can be purchased directly from Gary at his Superham! online store. Hopefully this is not the last we see of Hermees as this is such a great character with lots of personality.

Hermees is a trickster and international traveler. He's developed quite the reputation and depending on where his journey's take him, he could bring luck, happiness, longevity, disease, or even . . .DEATH. Hermees is an 8" vinyl toy with a 12" wingspan and 8 points of articulation in the head, snout, wings, hands, and feet. Each figure comes housed in a nicely designed window packaging.
