Wow, nice score man! :shock:

I really want one of those books, but can't bring myself to pay the ridiculous prices they fetch. I'd be all over it for $5 though :lol:

Thanks! I'm still shocked I found it. I've bought some great "art" books there before at excellent prices but finding KAWS C10 is/was just a completely different level. I scoured the rest of the shelves thinking this person may have sold/donated other awesome books to the store but didn’t find anything similar.

I’ve never been lucky with lottery tickets or casino gambling but I’ll take finding this book.

Hey saucemoola, my pick up so far is my Joe kaws, I been keeping a eye on a few items! All Kaws art vinyl figures. I am still debating what to get and if i can score a bid to win! The idea is to get them at reasonable prices. I met a few great Board Members who offered me reasonable to good prices on some items i am looking for but i am more focus on the older kaws pieces.

Dam i had a bad dream last night...i thought my Kaws mono was leaning....dam ppl on this thread too dam paronoid...but dam that one kaws 4 foot companion with the sinken leg made me say daaaaaam....i think it was kicked or something?

Dam i still cant believe you are 11 pieces away from the whole collection!! did you get any more? this hobby is $$$$$.... :rolleyes:

Got a new in bag white Chum from Superman Toys while I was in Hong Kong. It's something I wanted for a while but it has so much more significance now that it's also a souvenir from my 13 day trip around the world :rolleyes:

One thing that really bothered me about Hong Kong is how so many stores had amazing Kaws pieces on display and looked for sale, but they weren't. It's like all Kaws owners in HK want you to feel bad about what you don't have

Like this one...

haha seriously! You should have seen the display at Superman Toys. I'll try to post a still of the video I took of it. It was like a small bedroom sized windown display of hundreds of iconic toys... not for sale

Apologies for quoting such an old post, however I would like more information on this. Has anybody got links to webbies that have more photos?

silk screens or art vinyl? i read some dude has a few kurfs paintings wrap in a package? i think he said he paid 10 grand for 1? how much do this silk screen paintings go for brand new on kawsone? i seen some on ebay go for 1200 usually at a bid? I dont know whether to start collecting his prints one day instead....

Is Superman Toys located in Causeway Bay?

I visited a few shops selling kaws stuff over in Causeway Bay, about a year back. Picked up the Milo Disected set from one of the stores. Id be interested to hear where Superman Toys is.

Superman Toys is in Kowloon.

true that. it's in one of the buildings that are part of a series of shopping centers, all with quite a bit of great toys. I really wish I had more time to explore and seek out bootleg kaws that wasn't horribly overpriced.
