[edoggg]

[jobro]

aren't those the cunts from rayman

[dundermifflin]

i believe they're called vinyl toys. i like them but dont plan on collecting them. at 6bucks a pop to stand there an look sweet to a bit rich for my blood. i'd like them alot better if their blanks were so damn expensive.

[iloveboxcars]

i collect useful things.

and then i use these useful things.

i dont just leave them on some shelf where the escalate in value and then drop in value like a boulder.


yeah.

[edoggg]

amen to that

I agree, this collection is small, but if you continue, then it will be big. Which one is the tooth? I mean the representive reason for collecting this body of items.

A collection has three elements: the HEAD, the TOOTH, and the BODY. The HEAD are the rare and highest value of either money or sentiment interest. The TOOTH defines the reason why you started the collection in the first place. The BODY is the whole collection including and/or excluding the HEAD and TOOTH.

also - what is your shelf and support made from? It looks like acrylic and stainless steel. anyways, cool.

also2 - what do you mean by urban?

[Ski Mask]

the reason you arent getting any respect for your sweet urban toy collection is simple.
you dont have a kaws chomper.

[Ko SprueOne]

what else do you collect?

[nonamebrandeggs]

You must roll deep.

[little_motha_fuckin_beans]

girls panties (smelly)

AMEN to that brother
*in hulk hogan voice

[boogie hands]

i dont care who made these things...in 5 years you wont be able to give these things away. graffiti toys are the new jungle green.

[CELT]

My son is already eyeing up a few of my things . :lol:

[CELT]

i dont care who made these things...in 5 years you wont be able to give these things away. graffiti toys are the new jungle green.


I had the same outlook on Skateboarding for a while , after I started in 1986 . I stopped caring about the whole fad and trend of Tony Hawk video games and ESPM , Gravity Games bullshit and had a lot more fun back like when I was 12 and starting . :)

[Nic Thamaire]

i dont care who made these things...in 5 years you wont be able to give these things away. graffiti toys are the new jungle green.

this things -as you call dem- from 5 years ago are like golden on todays market,so im not sure of what you saying..

[phat j]

if you guys are ever in the MPLS area check out robotlove its a store specializing in urban art toys

i wanna get that hello label on tho

[boogie hands]

this things -as you call dem- from 5 years ago are like golden on todays market,so im not sure of what you saying..

and im not sure if you are talking about vintage spray paint or these silly ass toys...im not denying these things are selling well right now. what im saying is that in 4 or 5 years no one is going to give a shit and what was going for $300 on ebay now will be going for $40 in a few years. market-wise, its a fad.

thats what im saying.

[Nic Thamaire]

well,once again,im not sure that the toys made by artists like Michael Lau,Futura or Kozik will be very low price even in 5 years,as i told you some piece from 5 or 10 years ago are mad expensive right now and still..i've been here for almost 7 years,i mean on 12oz,if im stlll alive ill prolly check it again in 5 more years so we can discuss this again,,hehehehe..

[Nic Thamaire]

please no dunks,,hahaha

Yea i have 2 of these guys, Zeta and devious.

[Ko SprueOne]

I don't have any of these, although they look interesting. Can you snap on and off a new cap head whenever you want to?

What's the retail price of these?

[lawaughn]

I believe that if you really love a certain graf artist you would collect as much of their work as you can even if it's a toy. What it's worth in 5 years really shouldn't matter.

[Inhalant]

no tokidoki's? woebots? screaming hands? bear bricks?

[cully111]

i have only two but i am trying to find more

[jobro]

i collect useful things.

and then i use these useful things.

i dont just leave them on some shelf where the escalate in value and then drop in value like a boulder.


yeah.

Nothing personal (and I'm not saying I'm a fan of these toys) but I'm pretty sure you or at least your parents would have some form of 'useless' ornament such as a plate, vase, painting, or something like that in the home.

[KARTOONKILLA]

Man i wish i could get some of these, but they cost
to much for me at least.
dope collection

[thedoc]

Some of those toys are pretty cool, not for me though. One mans trash is anothers treasure, dont hate. Funny how things never change on certain forums.

[shoeshooter]

anyone intrested in dunnies... haha id love to get rid of mine for trades or somethng... reguardles... people can make some loot off of that crap on ebay and the kidrobot forum... got addicted for a minute.... pm me if your intrested

well my dad has some nazi era china, but thats from his dad who fought in the war.

other than that, no.

[artcreator41]

cost a lot but still cool

[dailycrunch]

fuck this shit is chinky homo

[Darth Vandalizer]

WHY WOULD ANYONE SPEND MONEY ON THAT SHIT!

[coffie crave 7]

what do i think?

i think stop while your ahead, a few months down the line your gunna be posting your whole collection on ebay and trying to get your money back, you might make more back you might make less.

the urban toy secen or whatever you wanna call it,is outa control and is to hard to follow and keep up. if your into that stuff.

[IrakFood]

Jeremy Fish makes some dope vinyl toys....

[Malin]

I dig them. Good idea. But I can not see spending the money I earn on them. I'd support the artist by buying them if I had a nice fat bank account. But I do not.

[ms.seyer]

Don't buy them. I used to be into the whole collecting shit, but now looking at it, it has no use. I was stupid to buy them. It's kinda like that Beanie Baby plaque. Although the graphics are cool to look at.

[daddy K]

Collecting toys is ok. Custom painting them and selling them is what's up!

[Ko SprueOne]

agree

I bought a couple blank Munnies but have yet to finish them. The fatcap series is freakin sweet! I've got the toofly fatcap and dunny.

I'm a graphic designer and they're sitting above my desk in the office. The colors and designs on those toys are fantastic!

Eff the haters....just cuz you can't rack em doesn't mean they're worthless.
