"Melting DOB" figure | HK$16,800 (US$2,167)
Medium: Painted cast vinyl with metallic disk stand

Dimensions: 25.3 x 31.5 x 18.1 cm, including stand

Edition: 300

This year celebrates the 28th anniversary of the original Mr. DOB, Murakami's first signature character. "Melting DOB" elevates the fun factor with swirls of red and blue under white rings that spell the iconic character's name in a contorted fashion.
