I usually try to leave toys to the 12 and under set but I found this noteworthy of a post. Infinitely influential to contemporary pop music and generations of musicians, The Beatles continue to change the visage of pop culture and contemporary culture for decades on end. Their uber famed single “Can’t Buy Me Love” anchored top of the charts in both the U.K. and U.S. immediately after its release in March 1964.
SILLY THING proposed the “Can’t Buy Me Love” 1000% Kubrick project to Medicom Toys and The Beatles around two years ago, and it is not until winter 2008 that it has come to its final stage. The plan sees the four members of The Beatles (John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison and Ringo Starr) shaped into stylized creations of 1000% Kubrick over sized figures. With the 680mm height, they could be the biggest The Beatles collector’s toys ever. At a time when the crossover of pop culture and art are more and more recognized, The Beatles “Can’t Buy Me Love” 1000% Kubrick Set makes a delightfully light-hearted investment.
The 1000% Kubrick set is now available for worldwide purchase through the THINK SILLY web store.
