Bring Tha' Pain

I have been following Coarse Toys' progress ever since I first heard of them back at the Plastic Particles exhibition in July of last year. Their first figures were supposed to come out in October of last year, but all they did at that point was send out posters to people who signed up for them on their website. I've got mine hanging in my bedroom next to my Farrah Fawcett poster. Well, with the help of Vans Shoes they have finally released their first figure, Flake, Fluid and Float:



Kidrobot has got the Revolt version of Flake, Fluid and Float, which are actually one figure with three heads, including one that is a skateboard truck and wheels, several extra arms, legs and hands, two pairs of shorts, a shirt, surf board, skateboard, and three pairs of Vans sneakers. So much goodness, so little time. Kidrobot says they have the Pain version available as well, but it isn't up on their website yet. Coarse Toys also have the Cream and Switch versions available on their website. Same idea as Pain and Revolt, just different colored hair and clothes.

9/10/04 Update: the Pain version of Flake, Fluid and Float is now available on the Kidrobot website. I got mine, get yours before they are all gone.
