Pop artist Ron English is at it again with his massive 1:1 Grin toy for Garageworks Industries. This massive Grin doll is based on a smaller scale version that Ron English previously did for Garageworks.
If you’ve noticed that Grin has a striking resemblance to Charlie Brown, it’s because he was modeled after the iconic character. With a height of 4 feet, there are only 10 of these massive Grin pieces; each is personally signed by Ron English.
