Coming to SDCC is a new OBey figure called Mr. Spray. This will be available in multiple colourways - Blakc (seen above), Red both limited to 350. A gold version limited to 200 will be the Obey Giant exclusive while the silver below is an SDCC-only deal and limited to 100.
Mr. Spray was created by Obey in 2004 as a street-art appropriation of an advertising character design of the 1950s. Mr. Spray is the first original vinyl figure design by the artist in eleven years. The figure is 11 inches tall and features 4 points of articulation, packaged with an OBEY mini stencil.
Personally I like the look as I love old advertising style toys and the stencil idea is neat but the fake Superstars for feet completely ruin it for me.
