We’ve seen Target collaborate with Toy2R on employee only Qees.  And now it appears the retail giant wants in on the fitted game.  Much like the recent toy collabo, these fitteds also come in two colorways.  One is adorned with a nubuck body with denim bill and vice versa for the other.  No further information was disclosed by Estate LA.  Hopefully, these aren’t just for employees only as well as I’d really like to get my hands on either cap.

Rotofugi collaborated with Acne Film to produce this cool video where roles are reversed.  Imagine a world where various urban vinyl figures collects people as a hobby.  Watch as Mori Chack’s Gloomy Bear speaks about his collection in a British accent.  Somehow I’d imagine he would have a child’s voice instead.  Anyways, enjoy the clip. On a side note, if you’ve never made a purchase from Rotofugi in your life, give it a try.  Whitney and Kirby always comes through with some extra tlc on the packaging of orders.

Toy2R has recently collaborated with Toy2R to produce two figures for Target employees.  Of the two, I’m certain most heads would prefer the Bullseye mascot Qee.  Even with an employee only distribution, I’m sure some will hit eBay for us non-Target employees.  Head over to the backside to see the other design.

Several weeks ago, Van had posted a flyer for this show.  Killahbeez would like to dutifully remind our readers that this show pops off this Saturday, June 28.  This latest flyer features a Qee done up by none other than our next door neighbor Coolvader.  My man has got some serious skills with the paintbrush, so come through and see what’s really good.  The place is small, so come early to beat the crowd.

Here’s a peek at Optikmass’s piece for the 16″ Qee show at the APW Gallery this coming weekend.  For those that are going to be near the LES on June 28th, come out and see this beautiful piece along with all the other submissions.  Personally, I’d like to ask Danny Roldan of Optikmass how he came up with this concept.

Conveniently, the weekend I am visiting the Ali-Brahms, this show is happening.  Even better is the fact that their neighbor, Cool Vader, has a submission.  Finally, another delightful surprise is Danny Roldan aka Optikmass is also displaying his work.  It’ll be great to see both artists’s work in person.

I never caught onto to the Toy2R Bart series of 3 inch qee toys. But I’m really feeling the 2nd wave of Simpsons Mania Qees. The star of this series is none other than Homer. There are twelve designs in total and they come out in May. I’m most certain they’ll be hitting the shelves of Urban Outfitters around that timeframe.
