KAWS' GONE is Gone from NGV
And so the third colorway for KAWS' GONE had been revealed (as I had previously suspected+featured), and as well since listed as SOLD OUT on National Gallery of Victoria's dedicated www-site for all KAWS items at www.kawsngv.com, since its "Sept 20th" launch date .... although currently there is still no sign of movement on Kawsone.com (Where it was also said to be launching)...?
Nevertheless, here are the details and pricing for the item on kawsngv.com, for your kind reference/considerations;

ABOUT GONE: "An emotional depiction of loss, GONE, 2019, shows KAWS’s well-known characters COMPANION and BFF in a pose reminiscent of that seen in a classic pietà. It is among the most powerful of KAWS’s sculptural works, which often embody humility, pathos and vulnerability. Whether as toy or monumental sculpture, the exquisitely rendered and immaculately finished work engages with contemporary issues such as loneliness, and celebrates supportiveness in today’s increasingly fractured world."
