Today KAWS revealed his upcoming Elmo plush from Uniqlo. This follows the reveal of two other Sesame Street plushies, namely Bert and Ernie. No word yet on a release date for our furry red friend.
As for the smattering of criticism about Bert and Ernie, yes they are all about the XX’s – but if they are in fact headed to Uniqlo (as is Elmo), that seems about right. Think of it as KAWS for all, from mainstream buyer to discriminating collector. Surely, not all of his plush should be as rare as expensive as the BFF.
