The name of the character is “Kaws,” which appears in the lyrics of BTS’ song “Cypher pt.4.”

“Hoseok mentioned the name in his lyrics but I like this toy more than he does,” Rap Monster said.

“I went to the stores and finally found them at a corner of a shop.”

The toys were released in 1999, he added.

“This is a fantastic product. I’ll use this in my studio,” he said.

Rap Monster also showed viewers a “Doraemon Bearbrick” and other character figures he got from a claw machine.
