{ Doze Green's Ganesh }

World-renowned artist Jeffery "Doze" Green - New York born and bred pioneer of hip-hop culture, staight-up graffiti legend, accomplished figurative painter, and original member of the fucking Rock Steady Crew - drops his second figure, and he completely kills it. It's called "Ganesh," is a huge 10 inches tall (and it's a sitting figure!), and is resting on top of a giant boombox. Ganesh is an elephant-esque Hindu god, whom is supposed to bring good fortune and remove obstacles from our paths. While doing so, Doze has set up the Big G with a crisp kangol, a nice pair of shell-toes and a shiny little jewel in his big, round belly. The blaster he rides is a separate piece and on his back are the letters E.O.T.O., standing for "Each One, Teach One." Priced at $59.95, dude does not come cheap, but without a single bit of fibbing I must say that this is the first toy in a looooooooooong time that I think would actually be worth such a tall stack of pennies. Get it while the gettin's good!
