Glamb, a streetwear shop that's located in Tokyo, has joined with Medicom Toy to release the 'Throw Mickey Vinyl Collectible Doll.'
The toy takes inspiration from the widely recognized piece by Banksy called 'Rage, the Flower Thrower,' or alternatively 'Love is in the Air,' which was originally painted on the side of a garage in Jerusalem in 2005 to advocate for peace. For the collaborative collectible, Glamb and Medicom Toy feature Disney's Mickey Mouse as the subject, who holds a bouquet of flowers in the same stance.
The limited edition release comes in both a full-color and a black and white variation, which are available from the Medicom Toy webstore for approximately $74 USD each.
