It seems like new animal obsessions occur on a daily basis, and the next new craze is the Kidrobot Staple Pigeon vinyl toy. Although known for more hipster creations, the company breaks the mold with this pigeon as they add to their already impressive collection.
Designed in collaboration with New York-based Jeff Staple of Staple Design, the Kidrobot Staple Pigeon is a stylized version of the studio's logo. Gray and gritty, the Kidrobot Staple Pigeon takes on a Michelin Man-like appearance, rolls and all. Yet, the design is still quite distinctive, even though there are countless of these real feral fowls pecking away outside of the Staple headquarters.
The Kidrobot Staple Pigeon is a limited edition toy with only 800 produced.
