The newest Kidrobot Black release dropped last week and it is insane (in a good way!). Kuro Megami by Junko Mizuno is 11 inches of black vinyl craziness. Like the Asian ancients before her, Kuro Megami commands power with imagery. Under her breasts, a skull and heart reside. She houses both life and death. She is a symbol for worship and a vessel for cosmic energy: strong and unsympathetic.
Kuro Megami features flowers seductively leading to the serpent in her womb. She wears a coat of hair that shines like armor, protecting her body as well as her identity. Two sweet and small guards stand at her feet with chains holding them in two of six gloved hands. This figure seriously has it all! And The Blot does love it’s trademark Junko hair! I’m also a little jealous of it.
Kidrobot Black x Junko Mizuno Kuro Megami vinyl figure has a limited edition run size of 200 pieces, comes hand numbered with the artist’s signature engraved on the bottom, and is sold exclusively at black.kidrobot.com and select retailers worldwide for $400 each.
