Kidrobot Fatcap Series 2

Today Kidrobot released their newest line of 3 inch Fatcap designer vinyl figures. Fatcap figures have the same basic body as Kidrobot’s line of Dunny figures, but with a spray cap head (tying the figures to the graffiti community). Fatcap Series 2 includes 17 regular figures plus two rare chase figures by artists such as Bubble Fetishist, Tilt, DOMA, Sket One and MAD.


My personal favorite has to be PON’s Feed Fatcap. This New York artist’s work is really great, and I love his incorporation of Pigeons into everything he does. You can check out more of his work, including this limited edition print he collaborated on with kaNO, at his website Feed The Pigeons.net.


Check out a few of the other Fatcap Series 2 designs below. These limited edition figures are blind box items, retail for $6.95 each and can be purchased here.

She & Him To Tour North America

You know its summer when every music act in the world announces a tour of the U.S. and Canada. Not to be left out are indie darlings She & Him (Zooey Deschanel and M. Ward), who announced yesterday they would be embarking on a North America Summer Tour.


After a few shows earlier in the year to promote their debut album, Volume One, Ward and Deschanel have decided to go on their first official tour as a band. She & Him’s Summer Tour 2008 only has 13 stops, so if you were hoping to catch the indie duo live you’d better start making travel arrangements now. The tour's pre-sale began on Wednesday, May 28th and the general sale for most of the tour's shows begins this Friday, May 30th, at 10 am (local time).
