michael lau's xlaugh updates (part one)
by now) by Michael Lau's XLAUGH-wave, innit?
[image via] and from HypeBeast [info+image via] comes some pics and a little
bit more news on Michael Lau's collabo with XLARGE and Fingercroxxx [labelled]
currently expect 2 versions of the X-Laugh figure (shown above) - with the "White"-colorway being released on May 20th (for $599HKD), available only in HK+China (together with the tee+cap = image after jump), while the "Black"-colorway edition will be made available only in the US and Japan. both tee and caps are available @ East Touch's online store here (dunno for how long tho), if you're interested .... meanwhile, there comes news of 2 more collaborations/colorways: the "Orange/White" colorway for Maharishi and an all-"Blue" version for french-boutique Colette = *cool* - but also "stressful" to faithful ML-collectors, innit? :p ~ *peep tee-shirts/caps, poker cards and hi-res pics of XLaugh-figures, after the JUMP*
outside of Asia, if you're in Vermont, LA - the XLARGE-flagship store will exclusively stock these special XLARGE x Michael Lau x Fingercroxx Poker Cards.
[info+image via] altho i'd rather have the vinyl-figures ('natch) but it remains to be seen what's on these cards, innit? more ML graphics and vinyl-images? someone snag them and send me pics, please? thanks! ... and from CrazyToyz-forum comes more pics and some colorway-details:
The concept behind XLAUGH is "our 80's" (as seen on title of magazine-page) - with retro-elements inspired by the 80's, including Space Invaders, Star Wars, Ghostbusters etc, which also ties in with Fingercroxxx's 80's-themed clothing line.
seems the figures are sold in blind assortment, with differing colorways:
- FGXX WORK (StarWars) = 3 versions (Red, Blue and current Yellow)
- FX BUSTER (Ghostbuster) = 2 versions (Blue and Yellow Caps)
- FX JOE (Action Man/GI Joe) = 2 versions (Yellow and Black Hair)
the harsh reality is that i'd only be able to drool over these vinyl-babies online, at this financial-point in time, so im crossing my fingers for lucky folks out there who'll be able to score some of ML's figs and to "share the pics-lurve"? *heh*
