Paul Frank's Julius Toy Art Show @ Toy Art Gallery (Aug 3rd)
Paul Frank collaborates with Sweet Streets and Toy Art Gallery to create a pop-up shop showcasing artist-customized vinyl Julius figurines, and the previews of the pieces so far seen are pretty spectacular, methinks! Here a peek at some swell pieces gracing the TOYSREVIL inbox:
