about eboy x kidrobot's peecol series two and yet another personal toy-theory

even before PEECOL Series One has officially dropped, Kidrobot has announced the release of Series Two for a November 29th-drop! and from my interview with creators, eBoy, they are currently working on Series 4 and i have no doubt this series would go on for quite a while more, IMHO :)

seen on the KR-forum thread are a few more peeks into PEECOL vinyl-citizens, with no doubt mixed reactions from collectors, for which i have this theory (do bare with me) ...

upsized the figures to 300-400% and get well-known fan-favourite artists to design their skins = how does that sound? /// CLICK TO READ MORE

...i mean, just imagine PEECOL-toy-citizens with skins designed by Joe Ledbetter, MIST, KOA, Jim Koch, et al) and folks may just change their tune = am i wrong in this assumption?



frankly, i feel a vast majority of collectors (no, i dun have stats to back this up) out there are possibly elitists. toy-snubs, if you may. and while i suspect it's not for lack of respect nor admiration for the CREATORS, but moreso the TOY FORM, and sometimes even GENRE ... so too a certain amount of leeway is accorded/given to their own FAV ARTISTS, when they lay their collective pens and paints to a figure (sometimes irregardless of the form, toy or not), IMHO.

hey, nothing "wrong" with that, really (i insist) - becoz it IS about personal preference (am not event talking about "taste" or "opinion"), IMHO ... and that's what makes the toy-realms so full of "life", innit? i for one welcome the diversity (even tho i may have my own opinions on a few of them as well), if not we'll ALL be getting the SAME type of figures at every single drop everywhere, innit?


i like PEECOL ... you don't need to like them if you don't want to. it's cool :)
