STRANGEco x Shepard Fairey’s Mr. Spray

While Shepard Fairey may be a prolific poster artist, he has made very few toys over the years.  Aside from a smattering of Qees and Dunnys, Fairey’s last original toy was way back in 1999 for Tokion Magazine’s Neo-Graffiti Project. Fairey has been drawing Mr. Spray since 2004 as a “street-art appropriation of an advertising character design of the 1950s.” I’ve seen the character on STRANGEco stickers for years, but it wasn’t until this year that I saw the actual 11-inch 3D figure.

Mr. Spray was made in 4 colorways (black, red, gold and silver). Black and red are being offered as a presale directly from STRANGEco and then through select retailers (Neon Monster included).  Gold is an Obey-only release, and as for silver, it’ll be waiting for you (and me) at SDCC 2010. More details on the retail versions as we get them.
