Kidrobot's Kidpunk16

Posted on January 8, 2009 Under Design

Kidrobot is schooling poser-punks with a history lesson packaged as a vinyl toy. When they drop the latest incarnation (#16) of their logo/mascot today, you’ll find that the sentiment screams: punk’s not dead! In an inspired move, Kidrobot produced a trio of Kidpunks, each wielding a standout album and wearing the respective T-shirt of the years 1977, 1980 and 1984. The Sex Pistols, Dead Kennedys and Black Flag are represented by the 8-inch figures, which will run you $50 each. Later this month, an ultra-limited fourth variant will be released at the London Kidrobot pop-up store at Selfridges. Wonder what album that figure will hold? I’m guessing The Clash and hoping for X-Ray Spex.
