Munky King has released the fourth colorway of their awesome The Messenger resin figure by kaNO. Inspired by Colin Kaepernick and the #TakeAKnee movement, the Ice Edition The Messenger kneels 6.5” tall, is made of frosted clear resin, and is cast as a single piece for crystal clarity. Limited to just 25 pieces, The Messenger Ice Edition can be purchased at the Munky King online store for $200.
As Munky King explained, “Football players often take a knee when someone suffers a severe injury on the field. An enduring expression of empathy amidst the combative intensity of the game. Colin Kaepernick took a knee during the National Anthem in solidarity with African American victims of police brutality. His call for empathy was met with angry vitriol from a polarized society. His message co-opted by powerful interests to serve their own agendas. But his call for social justice endures through the iconic image of taking a knee - a solemn testament to the injury of those denied the equal humanity which lies at the core of America’s ideals.”
