Kidrobot x Jeremyville The Love Bunny Plush

Kidrobot is about to release a brand new plush doll from the mind of Jeremyville, and The Blot thinks it’s probably going to be part of Aly’s upcoming Valentine’s Day present (like getting engaged wasn’t romantic enough!). As the KR ad says, you’ll never be a victim of unrequited affection ever again with The Love Bunny in your life.

Kidrobot x Jeremyville The Love Bunny Plush Figure
Artist Jeremyville’s super soft limited edition plush figure measures 16 inches from ears to feet, has embroidered freckles & eyes, appliqued hearts on his chest and feet, and retails for $29.95. The Love Bunny also comes with a full color, 8 page comic book by the artist. The Love Bunny will be available for purchase at select retailers, Kidrobot stores or Kidrobot.com starting late January 2010.

Dunny Fatale Blind Box Series

Kidrobot has finally made an official announcement concerning the release of their next 3 inch blind box series, Dunny Fatale! The Dunny Femme Fatale series features designs from 18 prominent and talented female artists. Some are cute and sweet while others are bold and cruel, but all are irresistible. Photos of the series leaked almost two months ago, so it’s nice to see Kidrobot finally acknowledge this awesome looking mini figure series.

Alyenz Blind Box Mini Figure Series

As you all know, The Blot is constantly on the lookout for the next great designer vinyl figure platform. So, I was really excited to receive a press release earlier this week announcing the launch of the new Alyenz blind box series by Buffalo Toyz, a newly formed designer toys division of well-known French label Attakus. Each Alyenz vinyl figure is 8 cm tall (a little over 3 inches) and will retail for around $10-15.
