"Sours" by Brendan Monroe

One of the upcoming toys shown  at SDCC that got people's attention was Brendan Monroe's Sours from Android 8. Brendan's work focuses on earthly and rustic themes fron his unique viewpoint.  The Sours toys are exicting to me because as prime examples of "art toys" they push the boundary between sculpture and toys.  Thanks to Glen of Android 8 we have some more information  about the toys and a gorgeous high-res pic to share with you.  The Sours are 7.5 inches tall and will arrive in four versions for a total of 1000 pieces  including an orange  Android8 exclusive and an unpictured Munkying exclusive red edition.  Price is still to be determined.

Update: The edition breakdown for the Sours is 300 Green, 300, Brown, 200 Orange (Android 8 exclusive) and 200 Red (Munkyking exclusive).

They look like an arty version of Nintendo's Pikmin. They're kind of cute, but also creep me out with their lack of mouth and blank eyes.

These look nothing like Pikmin, the only similarity is the leaf out of thier heads.

Is the green one suppossed to be broken off?
