KAWS Chum Kubrick 400%Silver

Product Description

The KAWS Chum Kubrick 400% Silver reimagines the Michelin Man derived Chum character through Medicom's Kubrick block figure format, dressing the silhouette in a striking silver and grey colorway that gives it a distinctly metallic, almost robotic presence compared to KAWS's more colorful releases. Created early in KAWS's career during his formative years working with Japanese toy and streetwear brands, this figure carries the artist's signature XX eyes and skull inspired detailing that would go on to define his entire visual language across decades of subsequent work.

Standing roughly ten inches tall in painted cast vinyl, the figure was produced in an extremely limited run, making original examples genuinely difficult to find on the current market decades after release. As one of KAWS's earliest toy collaborations, predating his massive later success with brands like Uniqlo, Dior, and Supreme, this Chum Kubrick captures a formative moment in the artist's transition from street art into the collectible toy space that would eventually make him a global name. For serious KAWS collectors tracing the artist's full body of work, this early Chum release remains a genuinely important piece of that history.

The KAWS Chum Kubrick 400% Silver was released on January 1, 2002 with a retail price of $98.
