Ready for Bedtime Custom 7" Munny for Urban Decay II

This piece is called "Ready for Bedtime". It's based loosely off a design I did nearly a couple years ago for a mimobot contest. I liked the color scheme and the goofy smile so it's been back in my mind as a concept for a munny. It's a regular sized munny so with the leg extensions and ears it stand around 14 inches tall. This is a one-of-a kind piece and it will be showing and available for purchase all month long in Urban Decay II.

A Kidrobot x Мишка Keep Watch Dunny Chase Figure… Holla!

No need to hold your breath any longer. The 2011 Мишка Dunny has arrived in a blaze of chainsaw-massacring glory ready to skin your sister’s Barbie dolls alive. The beautiful minds over at Kidrobot finally succumbed to our relentless pressure and let us fuck with the Dunny form until it was almost unrecognizable. The 3-inch troublemaker is outfitted with a cute pair of blood-splattered overalls and a mini murder weapon to boot. Although we do choose favorites, all nineteen other cuddly collectables are delightfully deranged in their own special little way.
Each individual Dunny is blind-boxed, so you never know what twisted and ultra-limited artistic creation you’ll get. But ours is a chase figure, so yeah shit’s gonna be incredibly rare to get your grubby paws on. Oh and did I forget to mention that every one of these little terrors is complete with a trading card and puzzle piece that fits together to form an original, never-to-be-sold-anywhere Dunny that even we know nothing about.
In celebration of the series’ squishy arrival on Kidrobot shelves, there will be a release party, sporting an exclusive Hole In The Middle book signing at the Kidrobot New York store on the 23rd of this month. Don’t close your eyes cuz “They’re here.”

Our local hero does it again this time it 20 inches of love.

Straight out of South Africa, Kronk’s 20-inch Killjoy Dunny invokes summer’s delight at first blush.

Featuring an articulating head and arms, and blue, pink, yellow and white gloss details.

ToiToy owner Earl Fischhoff has fun

DELIGHT: Earl Fischhoff of ToiToy Picture: MOEKETSI MOTICOE

Describe your shop.
IT'S a wonderland of designer collectable toys and has a fabulous energy, with many fun and interesting things to look at.
What makes your shop unusual?
We sell a range of products and merchandise not found anywhere else in Cape Town. The toys are all limited-edition designer collectables.
How did you come up with the name?
At the time of starting the shop, there were a lot of strikes happening so we played around with the idea of toyi-toying and came up with the name.
Why did you open a shop like this?
I've had a barrow at the waterfront for five years and have wanted to expand. I also carry a few other selected brands like Mooks Clothing and Skullcandy Headphones. I also create customised display cabinets for the toys and now I have place to exhibit them.
Do you have more branches?
Yes, we have a barrow at the V&A Waterfront.
What were you doing before?
I am still a plumbing contractor.
What are your plans for the shop?
To create an outlet for local designers and artists to display and sell their creations, and to make available to the public this incredible new form of art - toys.
Describe your customers.
We have a very wide spectrum of customers - from kids aged five or six to adults of 96. Many of our clients are in the design industry or are involved with creative work of some kind.
Where is your shop?
