Whether it’s their “Eyes of Fear” Fiberglass Busts, or their False Friends and different Blackout Editions, or PAW! Bust and Jaws Loser, Coarse always puts out vinyl figures and toys that make us want to break the piggybank to go out and acquire. The latest from the toy makers is the beautifully nostalgic Casting Shadows […]

The second edition of our Checking In series, Lost In A Supermarket’s quest to cover all things we hold most dear (see our review of the gleaming new Ritz-Carlton Hotel, Hong Kong). In this review we jump continents from Hong Kong’s Ritz — now the highest hotel in the world — to the W Hotel […]

Welcome to the inaugural edition of Checking In, the latest series in Lost In A Supermarket’s quest to cover all things we hold most dear.

That Jaws Loser piece last month was pretty amazing, and remember that False Friends figure they did in the beginning of this year? Well they’re back, only this time the False Friends are totally blacked out for their Blackout edition (fitting […]

Dammit if those guys over at Coarse haven’t done it again. Like most things in the “street” art game, vinyl toys have become over-abundant.
