We've just come back home after a week in london painting the beastie in the previous post. His name is Big Bertie!
We worked on him tues-thurs from 7am to 7pm, both in a studio and in the Selfridges store on Oxford Street. We put the finishing touches to him live at a big party on thursday night to celebrate the opening of the new Kidrobot concept store inside Selfridges. It was a pretty crazy week all round!
He's available for sale from Selfridges now, with all the proceeds going to charity... the price is... *cough!*... 12 grand! Any oil-rich sheikh's fancy a new pet??
Apologies for the lack of beat-updates, we're excited to get down to the bodyshop on monday to see what's been going on. Updates on that asap!
Here's a quick video and some pics of Big Bertie for the time being :)

Mike,
Went past Selfridges early hours this morning (Weds) and saw all this KidzRobot stuff in the window, looked like some inflatables at a quick glance. IS this the next big thing then?
morning!
aye - thats them! the inflatables are whoppas. ours is hidden away inside by the front door...
not sure about it being the next big thing, theyre very popular in the US but the market's very different over here! that said, theres a lot of the toys popping up in adverts/ tv show backgrounds. theres some michael lau figures in the new ford Ka advert!
