BMW Art Cars & LACMA Roundup

Stopped by the LACMA for a pleasant surprise to see some old-school custom car collaborations between BMW and some familiar names. What’s that saying… “so old, it’s new?” The Roy Lichtenstein, Robert Rauschenberg, Frank Stella, and Andy Warhol painted BMW Art Cars, a series starting in the 70’s, will be on display in the BP Grand Entrance and can be seen free of admission. A little late notice on our part though, as today is the final day of the exhibition. If you do happen make it out there, also check out the collection of Koons they have on display that look similar to the set that was part of the controversial Versailles exhibition that ended recently.

Pushead’s Skull Captain and Skull Pirates Pictures

Wow. Just spied these while clicking around on Artoyz’ Flickr. Characters by Pushead (fansite). Production by Secret Base. Coolness factor: exponential. There have been a couple other Skull Pirates to date, including some metallics. I love the green and blue/green colorway personally. Pushead is in a class of his own. Are these out yet?

Alex Pardee’s Walrus Rider Vinyl Toy: First Colorway Pictures

We’ve been eagerly awaiting a picture of the finalized Alex Pardee Walrus Rider since Upper Playground released the first proto shots. Stores are starting to drop photos to gauge interest in the piece. I don’t like pink and I don’t like teal, but I LOVE this figure. This will be one of a couple colorways, so if the hues don’t suit you, wait it out. The 11-inch figure sports “detailed gradient blends” and features a broken tooth that re-locks onto the walrus’ tooth and a C.H.U.D. rider with bendy arms. He comes packaged in a window box for $75. This is an edition of 500 with an anticipated release date of mid-April. Special surprises are also rumored to be forthcoming…
