New Crayola x Kidrobot: Coloring Critters Minis + Carvola Medium Figure

unnamed (2)

 

The Crayola x Kidrobot collection continues to grow with two new additions.  First up is the oh-so-cute Crayola Coloring Critters 3” blind box series ($9.99 each) featuring 14 animal critters, each with names inspired by the color of the actual crayon it comes with. You may be familiar with a few of these – four were released as plush towards the end of last year.   Beyond the fun designs, it’s neat that each critter is designed to hold the crayon in some fashion, including White Scientific Mouse who cleverly grabs the crayon with its coiled tail. 

In addition to the Coloring Critters, Kidrobot has also released the curious Carvola ‘Medium Figure’ ($59.99). As far as we can tell, Carvola is a playful art take on a box of Crayons, only each Crayon sculpture features a familiar Kidrobot character (Dunny, KR mascot, Labbit, and Munny World characters) on the end.  Each of the characters has a rough, carved appearance—the inspiration for the name.  Consider it Kidrobot’s interpretation of and homage to Crayons. This one is interesting and puzzling all at once—which can also be said of many art pieces. 

Both the Coloring Critters and the Carvola art toy (medium figure feels rather awkward here) are available from Kidrobot.com and should soon be available at your favorite retailer.
