On April 26th Kid Robot released a series of toys in collabo with the design collective DOMA. The toys, called Acid Sweeties are the most original and colorful toys that I’ve seen so far from the ever expanding vinyl figure market that populates a part of modern street culture. I like toys that I can play with so I’ve never even considered spending $100 on a limited edition artist designed vinyl whatever, but these little guys are $8 per and I can definitely come up with some great scenarios in which they fight my toy motorcycles in the bathtub. Seriously I do that. And just to make things more interesting there is a massive scavenger hunt to go along with the toy release. You can win $1000 shopping spree at Kid Robot and the full set of Acid Sweeties and some other shit. Of course finding all the stuff and then shipping it will probably cost you about $1000 so you might just want to buy the toys and leave it at that.
