The 'SuperBored' vinyl art toys have been unveiled as a new project from SUPERPLASTIC in collaboration with Bored Ape Yacht Club as a series of collectibles based on the popular non-fungible token (NFT) project. The figures come in several styles that are being launched as part of a timed drop where each one will be purchasable for 15-minutes only. Priced at $222 each, the toys are limited to two of each variant per order for collectors to pick up.
Founder and CEO of SUPERPLASTIC Paul Budnitz spoke on the new 'SuperBored' vinyl art toys to HYPEBEAST saying, "We already owned an Ape and used it as a model for the first toy, and the BAYC team worked with us on concepts, designs and story development. Everything came together super-fast and it’s been a wildly fun ride, like most things in the NFT & web3 universe.”
