Kidrobot October Releases

Posted on September 9, 2008 Under Design

Kidrobot has just dropped word of their releases for October, and the theme is dark. With toys spanning sex, death, nightmares, zombies and psychos, there’s officially something for everyone. The month opens and closes with 8-inch Dunnys: the kickoff figure is a dystopian Dunny by Australia’s Jeremyville on October 2nd. A week later, Kidrobot tips its hat to Playboy with two figures: a 1978 pinup in vinyl as envisioned by comic artist Paul Pope and Hugh Hefner as a PEECOL platform figure by eBoy. Cheekily suggesting that size matters, October 9th also sees the release of giant 18-inch DIY GID Munny figures. Death is not the end; it’s just a continuation as Andrew Bell brings out KidReaper 15, the 15th edition of Kidrobot’s iconic character, on October 16th. On October 23rd, Ryan Bubnis’ tricked out sugar-coated zombie mini-figures hit the shelves. And finally, to close out the month in style, Kidrobot releases Huck Gee‘s Hello I’m Insane Dunny on October 30th. This Dunny will be a boon to collectors whose pockets aren’t deep enough to get in on Huck’s custom toys. But with Huck’s sets of 10 custom Dunnys selling out in 8 seconds, simple math would suggest that 500 affordable production figures will come and go in less than 7 minutes. Be prepared for an insane month.
