Super7<\/a> has been teasing their upcoming collaboration with UNKLE<\/a>, set to drop at a special two-day event at their San Diego location (7.22-7.23).  Thanks to a nice Hypebeast article<\/a> we now know that the mysterious project is actually an UNKLE action figure and record combo packaged inside a  matching Pointman clamshell\u2014part of UNKLE\u2019s 25th anniversary.  Very nice.  <\/p>\n

As Hypebeast mentions, the design of the new figure is based on the OG figures released by Mo\u2019Wax<\/strong>  in support of UNKLE\u2019s 1998 debut album, Psyence Fiction<\/em>. The original figures were designed by Ben Drury based on Futura\u2019s<\/a> signature Pointman character.  The new figures will be released in three colorways-\u2013pink camo, green camo, and blue camo.  As you can see the sculpt is very close to the 1998 designs, with perhaps a bit more style and flair.  Pointman now has a subtle facial expression, his gear is slightly reworked, and the differing arm lengths are more exaggerated.  As with the OG figures, the new figures come with a clear stand\u2014doubling as a capsule-style record\u2014in order to display the feetless figures. Each figure comes with a different vinyl single: Pink-The Road<\/em>, Blue-Nowhere to Run<\/em> and Green-Looking for the Rain<\/em>. <\/p>\n

The UNKLE x Super7 Action Figures will be limited to 500 pieces<\/strong> in each colorway and will be available for $50 each<\/strong> at the UNKLE event at Super7 San Diego (7.22 \u2013 7.23).  The new figures look great, have a nice backstory, and would be a nice compliment to the later Medicom<\/a> produced UNKLE toys.  <\/p>\n
