Today, August 18th 2011, marks the worldwide launch of the highly anticipated Kidrobot x Swatch collaboration. To celebrate this pairing of artist-designed watches and matching Dunnys (Kidrobot’s signature 3-inch vinyl rabbit figure), Swatch is hosting events in eleven countries around the globe, featuring appearances by Kidrobot artists Frank Kozik, MAD, Tara McPherson, Jeremyville, Tilt and Joe Ledbetter. Additional Swatch / Dunny designing artists not participating in the events are Gary Baseman (a favorite here at the Worley Gig) and SSUR. The 3-inch Dunny and Watch sets will be available for sale beginning on September 1, 2011 for $70.00 each. Continue reading Kidrobot & Swatch Design Collaboration Launches
Here at the ‘Gig, we love Art and we love Toys, and a good place to find Art Toys is The Pink Ghost Store, where you can find awesome collectible designer toys by breaking artists like Buff Monster and Gary Baseman. Pink Ghost also sells accessories, gadgets, books and art prints like Tara McPherson’s rockin’ concert posters! Cruise on over to Pink Ghost Dot Net right now and take a look! Pink Ghost!

Hey, remember this little guy from an earlier Worleygig.com post? Well, artist Gary Baseman just created a one-of-a-kind painting to celebrate the release of that very pink HotChaChaCha vinyl toy! Pink HotChaChaCha painting – acrylic on wood panel and measuring 15 1/2″ x 20″ – is now available for purchase for the first time ever. A price hasn’t been posted but serious inquiries can be sent to Susan Ledgerwood at basemanstudio@gmail.com. Considering the toy retailed for about $100 each, the painting is likely not cheap.
Thanks to Plastic and Plush for the tip!
