Robocon

Editorial Review

Located in Chinatown's Bamboo Plaza, Robocon is a Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde kind of store. Dr. Jekyll wants to sell limited edition art toys and interesting obscure creations but that crazy Hyde only wants to carry mainstream overpriced poser gifts. As the two men battle it out, Robocon remains open serving hits and misses. Jekyll curates the innovative art gallery featuring underground graphic artists with a flare similar to the flare shining from the cool ass adult toys. Hyde misses the mark with strange "art" tees that don't match any of the store's aesthetic. Could just be an adolescent identity crisis and Jekyll and Hyde will melt away. Hopefully.
