Kaws BFF, by isurus on Aug 30, 2017 10:06:30 GMT 1, They look too shiny in that pic which make them look "cheap". I got the black open edition companion and won't get any other. I really like having the chance to get an official one against the bootlegs but they are too pricey, imo.
When I got mine, I contacted the YSP Museum asking for some info and they let me know they stocked 2700 Open Edition companions. I can't imagine the worldwide figures.

Originally talked about as Open Editions. I assume they still are, but interesting that this new post says they're exclusive to Moma and Kawsone... Maybe just the Black.
The Blue version is still to be released too.

The Blue version is still to be released too. If it's exclusive to 2 stores, i believe it will be "more limited" than the now usual open editions. I don't the 2 stores (especially Kawsone!) restocking them on a regular basis. It could be a timed release (preorder)? Wasn't it the case of the red companion in the Kawsone website?

Thoroughly overpriced then for open editions. Now that the speculation has departed over whether the open editions will only be temporary, the jig should be up. But perhaps people have too much money to spend it sensibly these days. Has KAWS created any new and fresh art lately? They say that his 'art' blurs the line between fine art and mass-produced merchandise, but perhaps the price is the only thing that blurs the line?
I refuse to purchase open editions, timed editions, and lazy variants which all ruin the collectability.

Manufacturer's boxes confirm that they're open editions. Completely overpriced trinkets. Just buy a $5 elmo and paint it blue.

Also we haven't seen any redrop for the reds on his site. Seems more like a timed edition than an open edition.
