TITEL MEDIA – January 19, 2016 – BAPE has turned to Astro Boy as a partner for its latest capsule collection, and has emblazoned the Japanese manga character’s image on a whole range of new pieces.

Alongside three separate T-shirt designs and two figurines, the centerpiece of the collection is the classic BAPE Shark Face hoodie, which has been redesigned to feature Astro Boy’s face and signature hair. Meanwhile, glow-in-the-dark motifs pick out the design on the chest, front, back and hood of the garment.
