Kidrobot - Wood Dunny Chiseler by David Weeks

Is Wood the new Vinyl? Kidrobot must think so because the designer vinyl toy company has a couple of new Dunny inspired wood creations in the works. First up is the Chiseler, a 7 inch wood Dunny created by Brooklyn designer David Weeks.


Modeled after Weeks’ poseable timber toys Hanno the Gorilla and Ursa the Bear, the ultra-exclusive Chiseler (only five were created) is hand-hewn and sanded from zebra-striped hard pine, creating sculpted facets out of Dunny’s familiar roundness. Despite the swivel head and arms, each unique Chiseler is less a plaything than an individualized piece of artwork, right down to its custom-crafted wooden crate which features the figure’s laser-etched image.


Each sculptural Chiseler subtly differs from its sibling, resulting in a real Dunny rarity: a one-of-a-kind creation made just for you. And with a price tag of $1,200, it is the most expensive Dunny ever officially released by Kidrobot. The Chiseler measures 7" x 5" x 3", and will be available for purchase starting on Tuesday, September 22 at Kidrobot NY and Kidrobot.com.

Where The Wild Things Are Max 400% Kubrick

While The Blot has been drooling over the previously announced Where The Wild Things Are 100% Kubricks for months now, the new WTWTA 400% Max Kubrick blows away all other Where The Wild Things Are figures. Just look at this nearly 8 inch tall figure, I dare you tell me it’s not amazing. Not only do you get a 400% Kubrick, but you get one in a legit wolf costume that looks to be removable. The fact that Medicom Toy went so far as to make a real wolf costume out of fabric with a tail and whiskers for this figure is unbelievable!


The Where The Wild Things Are Max 400% Kubrick also includes the crown and cane seen above and comes in window box packaging. The figure is not scheduled to arrive in stores until sometime in December 2009, but it can be preordered now directly from Entertainment Earth for $149.99 here.

Where The Wild Things Are, the live action movie adaptation of Maurice Sendak’s classic children’s book directed by Spike Jonze, debuts in theaters on October 16, 2009.
