Ironclad Decimator Dunny

This version of Doktor A Ironclad Decimator dunny will only be available from Kidrobot exclusively.

Paws Blush.

Squeaking and nimble he appears on the scene. Only a few remaining spots of his white body shimmer in the morning glow. This early sunlight drowns out his surroundings while the rest of his massive appearance remains almost entirely shrouded by the glittering dust of the pink soil. His bright nose graciously fights for attention, and his daunting eyes hide behind their reflections of the blue sky.

coarse is presenting paw! blush in cooperation with the collection Selim Varol, a unique collectors edition created to become a part of or the starting point of your “pink collection”. The 12'' vinyl figure comes cocooned in white sponge, packed in a highly unique and exclusive handcrafted wooden box resembling the existence of paw! the monkey rabbit.

Sket One Vs. MAD 4-foot Dunny Battle.

This is what you get when 2 Great designers go into battle.
The Dunny showdown of the year has come to a bloody conclusion! MAD’s Mr. Frosty went head to head with Sket One’s Bad Juju design over the past 2 days at our Slate Booth in Las Vegas. MAD and Sket kept their social feeds flooded with work-in-progress updates of these 2 massive customs.

Ironclad Decimator Dunny - coming soon

Professor Teslastein jaggedly cuts, bending back the metal flesh.  Feverishly he works to create new vehicles of destruction for his nefarious exploits. Two models take shape from the scraps: in one he plants a vine to give it strength and in the other he gives a piece of himself. The Frankendunnys come alive. He leaves his laboratory, happy with his success, not noticing a third figure has risen from the decay. Concealed in the shadows, its eyes are glowing, gears are turning, and electric current is pulsing with life.

Doktor A’s 8-inch Ironclad Decimator Dunny is available in two editions: the first is shades of metallic silver and gold, with a uniquely sculpted head and body, and transparent blue lightening bolt accessory between the ears. This edition is a KR Exclusive and only available at Kidrobot stores and kidrobot.com. The Mecha Rupture Edition is matte pink with a black and white high gloss head and details, a uniquely sculpted head and body, and a black transparent lightening bolt. The Mecha Rupture edition is aWholesale Exclusive and only available at select retailers worldwide.

First Images of VISEone’s Tube Monster Vinyl Figure

VISEone would love to share with you some snaps of his newest vinyl figure, Tube Monster. He had just received samples of the Zombie Juice Edition and is hoping to have them ready by the end of September through DKE. He also mentions that you will most definitely find them this year during NYCC at the Tenacious Toys booth. This figure stands approximately 3.5” and still has a few kinks to work out, but it’s pretty much there. Stay tuned for shots of the next two colorways that are in the works.

How amazing is this will definitively try get some of these into the shop.

Skullslinger Blondie Edition

Death for Hire.

Ruthless and rugged, Skullslinger may wear a sheriff’s star, but he’s more outlaw than judge. Shading his hollow eyes under a broad rimmed hat, this winged vinyl rogue stands 11 inches tall, ready to draw with vultures circling overhead, the wind billowing his coat and the setting sun bouncing off his spikes and spurs. Skullslinger Blondie looks more bad than good, and is anything but ugly.

Limited to 700 pieces worldwide, Skullslinger draws his guns August 9, 

Product Preview – Mahākāla Dunny Protection Edition

Dunny-sattvas take wrathful form when a gentler approach is not effective.

Seemingly demonic, the Mahākāla deity is a stern protector. With his trident, he fights the poisons that blind – pride, lust, greed, and ignorance – and destroys those that hinder the knowledge of enlightenment. He has four arms, three eyes, and one fiery crown. Some compare him to death; others hail him as a glorious guard.  All know him to be fierce.

The Mahākāla character ever present in ceremonies throughout the Himalayan region inspires the 8-inch Mahākāla Dunny by Andrew Bell. The Protection Edition is limited to 900 pieces and rules with a trident accessory, extra set of articulated arms, and removable Dunny skull belt. Begin worshipping August 2.

Kong Andri's "Uncle Chop" custom Dunny + Labbit silent auction!

 

Kong Andri, the second place winner for Best Munny in this year's Munnyworld Contest, created this wonderful 3" Dunny and 1.5" Labbit custom set entitled "Uncle Chop." Andri describes the design as "A pig butcher whose gone mad when a piece of carrot plugged itself to his head. Now, controlled by that carrot, Uncle Chop is on a prowl looking for labbits to kill."

There's a lot of clean line work here and lovely little touches, like the labbit outline on his apron. Written on his back is the kanji for — I believe — "butcher man," which makes sense given the design. Instead of simply selling this piece, Andri has decided to do a silent auction to find an owner for it.

Between now and Saturday, June 30th at 8PM Indonesian time (which is 6AM on Saturday PST), e-mail contact [at] mynewobsession [dot] net with your full name, phone number, e-mail address and the amount of your bid. Bids do not include shipping & handling costs and no bid under $30 will be considered. Best of luck to all hoping to win this beautiful piece!
