S.L.M. @ GSUK




We have been sitting on this for a while, and now is finally the time to reveal the 4-way project. Devilock, Slam x Hype, Crazy Pig and our very own Sichi, all have a message that they would want to express to some people out there. ... Wait for it. You'll see.

BEWARE OF FAKE BUKA Season One


2aftuk_buka (23k image)

BUKA got its worldwide release at this year's Taipei Toy Festival. BUKA has since set the rumour mill into overgrind with questions of when the artist series is being released and who will feature in BEWARE OF FAKE BUKA Season One. BUKA has appeared around the online press and featured in Clutter Magazine and Computer Arts Projects. The stamp of approval was added with a Nike special edition, for use by Nike Hong Kong for internal use (company internal corporate stuff... not consumption or insertion into the human body) - making it the rarest of all BUKA to date.

After much deliberation and additional artists being invited to take part in the series, it's time to reveal the final line-up of artists who have applied their skills to the BUKA platform.

Frank Kozik (Anarchy)
Frank Kozik (Redrum)
Nanospore
DGPH
Mad Barbarians
Phallic Mammary
Wrongwroks
Hicalorie
Furi Furi
Bounce
Shin Tanaka
and BUKA creator and series curator Sichi, whose signature edition (shown above) makes up the collection.

There are of course the additional 2 secret mystery versions which we will only reveal to you once they have been discovered by the buying masses. Packaged in good old blind-boxed assortment. BEWARE OF FAKE BUKA Season One will be released on 11th November 2007 at the adFunture GS. Sichi will be hanging around on the 15th Nov at the 'Shelf Life' exhibition to sign your BUKA.

Season One... suggests there may well be a Season Two in the works, plus a few special editions you need to watch out for.
