Look who’s come in from the cold just in time for the holiday festivities. Alex Pardee’s Pink Flocked Walrus rider (11”) is the third edition of the original figure produced by The Loyal Subjects in conjunction with the tenth anniversary of Upper Playground. Not that we like picking favorites (actually… we do), but this is in our opinion the best colorway yet – dig the crisp arctic feel of the walrus. As with the other Walrus Riders, this one features bendy arms and a removable tusk which fits nicely into the rider’s hand. Limited to just 100 pieces, the Pink Flocked Walrus Rider will drop on Black Friday (11.27) for $114 only from theloyalsubjects.com.
To celebrate the drop and the joy of the season, The Loyal Subjects have put together a happenin’ Christmas Party and signing with Alex Pardee on Saturday December 5th at Goodfellas restaurant on Melrose. Hosted by Goodfellas, the evening will feature pink flocked Christmas Trees, tunes from DJ Counterstryke, surprises, and of course killer Hors D’oeuvres from the amazing Goodfellas chefs. Arrive early, as TLS expects to easily reach the 350 capacity. Hit the jump for more pics + Alex Pardee’s Walrus Rider poem.

‘Warlus Rider’ by Alex Pardee
“Born with legs of a golden tint,
He’d walk, he’d run, he’d jump and sprint,
There’s nothing much he COULDN’T do,
With legs of gold and wooden shoes,
The girls all loved his limbs and knees,
For no one else had legs like these,
But jealousy arose with some,
Cause’ HE was having all the fun!
So late one night upon his slumber,
Darkness drenched with rain and thunder.
There he slept and dreamt of blondes,
But when he woke HIS LEGS WERE GONE!
Who would do this tragic thing?
What good is a bee if a bee cannot sting?
And what good is HE without legs at all?
Now he cannot move and he’s not that tall!
So he hopped on the back of his bestest friend,
And together they ride as he seeks his REVENGE!”
