Fools Paradise just keeps on hitting us with the memes and one of the latest ones is Mario vs Forest Gump! Classic or what right? Once again taking us down memory lane. One of the most iconic scenes tied into Mario, HA who would have thought of that? oh yeah, Fools Paradise just did!
Fools Paradise to deliver the latest limited edition of Super Run 2 figure after 3 years exclusively on StockX! Ever since the launch of Fools Paradise in 2008, the brand has never disappointed toy lovers. With their reinvented forms of cartoon characters which are fused with elements in pop culture and movies, their works challenge the common conception of culture. This collaboration with kkplus, Super Run 2 – Have a nice day is rendered with a special colour scheme and will be released exclusively on StockX via DropX, the direct-to-consumer product release method powered by the platform for consuming and trading current culture.
The colour scheme for Super Run 2 – Have a nice day is released 3 years after the Super Run 2 drop in 2019. In comparison with the classic colour combination in a tribute to the movie, a brighter clash of red, white and blue is chosen for this special edition. The sneakers are in the trending blue and white mix and it goes without saying about what they have modelled after.
Believed to be taking inspiration from the famed running scene in Forrest Gump, Super Run 2 – Have a nice day adopted elements of Classic Video Game’s character. with the genius of Fools Paradise’s humour, brilliantly interpreting the two cultural classics and restating what makes all series from Fools Paradise so special.
“StockX customers are interested in limited-release products that combine their passion for culture with an investment opportunity, and this is fueling a rise in demand for collectibles,” said Tom Woodger, StockX VP of Cultural Marketing. “There’s a clear nostalgia-collectable connection among the StockX community so a collaboration with two local Hong Kong power players in the space — Fools Paradise and kkplus — makes so much sense for us.”
The 35 cm tall Super Run 2 – Have a nice day (kkplus Edition) is made with vinyl, complemented by a T-Shirt figurine. The figures are exclusively released on StockX via DropX™ at HKT 00:00 on 17 November.
