Giant Robot Store and GR2 News

That's the shirt. Today was playoff game number 1. We won and beat the jock team who are usually dicks. Today, they were fairly quiet.

Before they run out and show up on ebay at high prices this is a can't miss issue with KAWS on the cover sitting in his Original Fake Gigantic Companion box. He's showing his face now. It's large, tons of images, and I just saw these this morning. They'll be gone probably by the afternoon. I'm not sure if all of the GR stores have them. But get them while you can.
