WHAT'S NEW

StickUp Monsters × Frank Mysterio's "Por Vida" custom run of "Narquito" figures!

Inspired by the look of El Chapo Guzmán, the Mexican drug lord who heads the Sinaloa Cartel, artist Frank Mysterio's fantastic "Narquito" figure has a diminutive "gangsta" with the look appropriate to the area, complete with AK-47. In contrast to how this lifestyle is venerated through narco-corrido music, causing people to dress & act like someone involved in this scene regardless of if they're connected or not, Mysterio's rendition is a satirical defiance to the trend rather than glorification of it. Standing 3½-inches tall and cast in Japanese vinyl, these "Narquito" figures have been hand-painted by Javier Jiménez. Limited to an edition of 5 pieces titled "Por Vida," which literally translates as "For Life," a phrase commonly uttered by those that are truly dedicated to something, willing to sacrifice themselves for the greater cause. Available right now from the StickUp Monsters online shop for $35 apiece.
