Kaws Family

The KAWS Family is a highly collectible, open-edition vinyl figure set from Brian Donnelly (KAWS), released in 2021 (with variants like Black, Grey/Pink, and others). This iconic piece brings together KAWS’ beloved characters—primarily featuring two larger Companion figures (often in embracing or familial poses), a BFF, a smaller Chum, and sometimes a miniature Companion holding a Chum—arranged as a cohesive “family” unit that captures KAWS’ signature blend of playful nostalgia, street-art subversion, and pop-culture commentary.

Crafted from high-quality painted cast vinyl (or vinyl paint resin in some listings), the set showcases KAWS’ trademark elements: crossed-out “XX” eyes, gloved hands, rounded Companion forms, and emotional, expressive poses that transform solitary icons into a touching family portrait. Available in striking colorways (e.g., all-black for a sleek, monochromatic vibe; grey/pink for softer contrasts), it’s a standout display piece that adds depth and storytelling to any KAWS collection.

Available Sizes

The KAWS Family set is typically offered in one primary scale across authentic releases (including those from Medicom Toy collaborations and open editions). No multiple size dropdowns or variant scales (e.g., small/medium/large) are standard for this product—it’s a fixed family composition in the flagship size.

• Standard/Primary Size: Approximately 13.39 inches (34 cm) height for the tallest figure, with overall set dimensions around 13.39 × 12.2 × 5.71 inches (34 × 31 × 14.5 cm). This is the most consistently reported size from official releases, auctions (e.g., Sotheby’s), and resale listings: the family group measures roughly 34 cm tall × 31 cm wide × 14.5 cm deep, accommodating the clustered figures (tallest Companion ~34 cm, with smaller ones integrated).

Slight variations in listings (e.g., 34 × 14.5 × 31 cm or 33 × 33 × 9 cm for some boxed/display configs) reflect measurement orientation or packaging, but the core scale remains this mid-to-large desktop/shelf-friendly size—no smaller minis or oversized versions in the standard Family drop.

Key highlights:

• Authentic KAWS release (open edition for many colorways, making it more accessible than ultra-limited drops)
• Features multiple Companion-family characters in dynamic, heartfelt poses
• High-quality painted vinyl with detailed finishes and stamped authenticity (often on the underside of feet/base)
• Perfect for collectors of KAWS Companion series, BFF, Chum variants, or thematic family/group displays
• Curated at KAWS Vaults, a reliable source for verified rare and edition KAWS pieces
• Likely includes original packaging and any certificates

This KAWS Family set is more than individual figures—it’s a narrative artwork that humanizes (or “Companion-izes”) KAWS’ universe, making it an emotional centerpiece for shelves, vitrines, or galleries.
