Upper Playground, The Loyal Subjects and Sam Flores have teamed up to produce Kid Dragon a unique 3-piece vinyl figure.  The main colorway went up for pre-sale a month ago and sold out in just a few days.  Now, Upper Playground presents an exclusive purple tonal colorway.

Unlike most other vinyl figures, the Kid Dragon is made up of 3 pieces creating the illusion of the dragon floating through the clouds.  Manufactured by The Loyal Subjects, the 10” tall figure has vibrant gradient blends and comes housed in a double-sided window box with a scenic insert card.  Limited to 200 units, the Kid Dragon Upper Playground color way is slated to release in late September but is available for presale beginning Wednesday, July 22nd, on the Upper Playground web store.

You can go wrong with Medicom doing their rendition of the Star Wars droid duo, C-3PO and R2-D2.  Exact release details are still up in the air, but word has it that it will be around November.
