Last night saw the worldwide release of the much anticipated third series of Kidrobot’s Fatcaps. Celebrating the launch, Kidrobot LDN (along with a host of other official Kidrobot retailers across the globe) held a trading party at their central London store, with featured artist Jon Paul Kaiser on hand to kick proceedings off. We headed down to the massive event to have a quick chat with the man himself, score a case of Fatcaps, and hunt down Rich of UME to find out a little more about that upcoming JPK x Run DMB x UME project X (more to come later today!)…

The 20 designs (plus 2 case exclusives) are some of the strongest we’ve seen so far (Kronk’s Stormtrooper and JPK’s spaceman are quite simply AWESOME!), so make sure you pick up a few before they disappear. Priced at $9.95 each, the blind boxed 3″ vinyl figures can be procured from any official Kidrobot retailer, or alternatively, Kidrobot.com as from today (January 27th)…

Featured Fatcap series 3 artists: Devious, Flying Fortress, Jon Paul Kaiser, Julie West, KaNO, Kronk, MCA, Montana Colors, Pez, Queen Andrea, Quisp, Scribe, Shok 1, and Sket One.
Check back next week for an exclusive interview with man-of-the-moment, Jon Paul Kaiser, on his latest Kidrobot and Toy2R releases, his legendary b/w style, and what we can expect in 2012…
