Andy Warhol Campbell's Soup Can Chess Set
More free advertising for Campbell's Soup! The Andy Warhol Campbell's Soup Can Chess Set is a funky collaboration between Kidrobot and the Andy Warhol Foundation that brings the iconic pop art images to your next game night. Or, more likely, to a noticeable surface in your house where everyone can see and remark on the chess set, and fiddle with a soup can or two, before moving on to ask what kind of booze you have.
The Campbell's soup cans in the set are not filled with soup, are not real cans, and are not even built to scale, all points I was very disappointed to read. But I guess crafting them as 3" vinyl pieces will make the Pawn Tomatoes and King Chicken Noodle easier to maneuver around the board if you actually want to play a game of chess.
