SKULL&HAND LAMP from UNDERCOVER X P.A.M. X Medicom Toy (Sept 26-Drop)
The moment I saw this (online), I got a tad obssessed with*, and had to track it down, even though it might not the regular "wheelhouse" of TOYSREVIL ... Permit me to introduce to you the BLACK and WHITE Edition of SKULL&HAND LAMP from UNDERCOVER X P.A.M.!
"Long-time friends and collaborators Jun Takahashi (@undercover_lab), Misha Hollenbach & Shauna T (@perksandmini) reconvene in 2020 to shine a light on darkness. Produced by @medicom_toy, the new Undercover X P.A.M. ‘Skull & Hand Lamp’ and accompanying capsule were conceived via the groups shared interest in fantasy and romanticism."
Each 16cm/6.25" tall figure comes with a retail price of 25,000 Yen (tax excluded) = approx. US$237 / SG$326 - available online here and via UNDERCOVER Stores (in Japan) and store.undercoverism.com. Releases Saturday September 26th at Undercover Japan and P.A.M. outlets on September 26 2020, with a global release to follow.
"The lamp has 2 parts: The skull, coloured light eyes and dimmer switch, docks securely with a wall-mountable hand. The design allows the lamp to function in a portable and ornamental fashion, or as a fixture. Packaging is reminiscent of an antique store find." (perksandmini.com)
Available via perksandmini.com (and the P.A.M. store in Sydney) is the SKULL&HAND LAMP + CAPSULE - which features a "collection of hooded sweats and short sleeved t-shirts with logo and graphic prints, rendered by Jun Takahashi and Misha Hollenbach themselves, remixing elements of the lamp’s design while juxtaposing its placid energy." (Drops 12PM AEST SEPT 26 / SAT) ... then amidst all this excitement, here is an image of a BROWN/CHOCOLATE-hued SKULL&HAND LAMP...??? Don't tell me this was a warm-light filtered image...? LOL
*"Obsessed" not necessarily with NEEDING to have them in my collection - knowing full well I would not have the resources to (a rabbit-hole I constantly try not to jump into, actually lol), but of a particular obsession to see them actually being turn/switched ON and OFF in a video...!
