The Takashi Murakami Mr. Dob Figure is perhaps one of the most intriguing sculptures from the Japanese artist. The Mr. Dob figure displays Takashi's super-flat theory of artistry in conjunction with a 3D, almost lifelike attribute. The figure includes some of Murakami's most famous motifs, including a big mouth with sharp teeth, colourful eyes, and vibrant colours. The vinyl sculpture also has a shine to it, bringing to life Murakami's traditional 2D figures.
