Famed Japanese artist Takashi Murakami created an MLB Tokyo Series collection that launches March 7 to further add onto excitement with the upcoming matchup between the Los Angeles Dodges and Chicago Cubs at the Tokyo Dome.
Murakami’s Tokyo Series collection celebrates his country’s passion for baseball through two of MLB’s most storied franchises.
“Complex is proud to bring together Takashi Murakami and two of the biggest teams in MLB to celebrate this historic sports moment in Tokyo,” Complex CEO Aaron Levant said in a statement.
“This once-in-a-lifetime collaboration merges Murakami’s unmistakable artistry with the global energy of baseball, capturing the essence of the city and the deep cultural connection between art and sport.”
Cubs and Dodgers merchandise from the Fanatics apparel collection that are part of the Tokyo Series collection by Murakami are Nike t-shirts, hooded sweatshirts and limited edition jerseys, among other products.
Murakami’s iconic floral artwork will be available on Dodgers player jerseys for Shohei Ohtani, Yoshinobu Yamamoto, Mookie Betts and Freddie Freeman; and Shota Imanaga, Seiya Suzuki and Dansby Swanson of the Cubs.
The collaboration also includes slides by Ohana Hatake, a first-of-its-kind brand led by Murakami. The new releases feature Murakami’s flower motif and showcase Cubs and Dodgers logos on the Surippa Ohana silhouette.
The Tokyo Series collection also has Topps trading cards, New Era 59FIFTY knits and adjustable caps, Rawlings baseballs and gloves, Victus bats, totes, keychains and more.
A Topps Series 1 set ($50 mega box) will have Murakami-designed rare base card variations numbered to 5. The Topps x Murakami Matchup ($120 hobby box) is a 25-card set that includes parallels and autographs.
