Belgian artist Rhymezlikedimez (Robin Velghe) brings Superplastic’s Ghost Kidz to life with vinyl arts toys of animated rappers Filth-E and Lil’ ILL. Rhymezlikedimez brings his signature laid-back, dreamlike aesthetic seen in his visualization videos for music superstars such as Lil Uzi Vert, Dua Lipa, and Wiz Khalifa to the figures.
Fans of Rhymezlikedimez’ Puff character—with a sweet art toy of his own— will instantly recognize his take on Filth-E and Lil’ ILL with the sunset-hue glasses and the breezy, cloud-like hair and pants. Bold and brash, the animated rappers flaunt their bling, a nod to Rhymezlikedimez, with Lil’ ILL’s RLD chain necklace and Filth-E’s ‘Rhymez’ grill. Talking glittery gold, the figures go beyond just wearing jewelry. Filth-E’s watch and bracelet can be removed and swapped out with collectors’ favorite rings making him a unique way to display jewelry. Flowing in the other direction, Lil’ ILL’s RLD pendant can be removed and worn by collectors on a chain from their personal collection.
Editions of 500, the Ghost Kidz vinyl art toys (9″) are available from Superplastic, individually for $160 or as a set for $320.
