"Blown Away" Coarse Omen Figures from Josh Mayhem x Collect and Display

   
    What exactly do birds do in wind storms?  They're so light I just picture them being blown all over the place and then having to make their way back home after the bad weather passes.  Do they have little birdie basements like we do so they can huddle together amid their canned goods?  Surely I could have typed it into my Google machine and easily found the answer, but instead I chose to give you something to ponder at work.  I am nothing if not an expert at wasting time.  (BTW I totally Googled it and the results are fascinating.)

    Josh Mayhem has added his patented wind swept look to a few of Coarse's Omen figures that are an exclusive to Collect and Display.  They are a limited edition of only 12 pieces and will be for sale Friday, March 31st an noon pacific time from https://collectanddisplay.com.  Each one will cost ya $273 American dollars, or the average price of a movie theater soda and popcorn combo.

Permanent Guest from Coarse to Release June 18th

    There are times in life where jokes will not do.  Where you have to sit back, realize the story you are about to retell is already brilliant the way it is, and let it speak for itself.  Such is the tale behind this raccoon towing a fish in a bathtub.  Their story reads like one of Aesop's Fables as written by the Brothers Grimm.  I've always known Coarse created some of the most impressive pieces in vinyl that I had ever seen, but I was woefully ignorant to how much thought went into each one.  So I will humbly pause, direct you to click this link, and read the tale of these two unlikely companions for yourself.  Go ahead, I'll wait.

 

    Pretty neat, huh?  These two traveling companions will come in two equally different versions.  The black and gold "Endless Shadows" edition, and the more subdued "Promised Bliss"colorway.  Both will be available on June 18th (that's this Thursday) only through http://coarsehkg.com/.  Each set is limited to only 345 pieces and I would imagine those won't last very long.
