Description from the seller

A collectible group of original James Jarvis Mini King Ken 3.5-inch designer vinyl figures, produced as part of the well-known King Ken series associated with AMOS / StrangeCo.

The lot includes several different colour variants from the Mini King Ken range, including the notably rarer white variant, together with blue, grey, brown and other colourways.

King Ken is one of James Jarvis’s most recognisable characters and an important early figure within the designer toy / urban vinyl movement of the 2000s.

The figures feature the characteristic stylised gorilla form, exaggerated facial expression and different arm poses depending on the variant.

Condition:
The figures are in overall good displayed condition with age-related signs of wear.

Important: the white and blue figures show noticeable colour change / discolouration to the body, while the heads have retained their original colour much better. This may be related to ageing of the material and/or previous light exposure. The condition is clearly visible in the photographs and should be taken into account by bidders.

No boxes are included unless shown in the photographs.

Details:
- Artist / designer: James Jarvis
- Character: King Ken
- Series: Mini King Ken
- Size: approx. 3.5 inches / 9 cm
- Material: vinyl / plastic
- Producer / associated brands: AMOS / StrangeCo
