Check out Kidrobot’s newest 5” Dunny, Kuba by Mike Fudge! Fudge is a self-taught modern artist, illustrator, and creative whose work is a mixture of mystical elements inspired by ancient cultures and traditions. This includes a stylized blending of the natural and supernatural where personified animals comingle with the normal in his sacred world. Kuba was first discovered while excavating an ancient burial site in the late 1800’s. He is described in ancient texts as a mischievous combination of beasts with a desire to balance the dark and light found on the physical plane.
Kuba’s varying appearance may take shape as a playful light colored figure, but it also has the power to morph into a dark, more sinister incarnation. In the past, figures of Kuba were given as gifts to fight off evil spirits, but there is evidence that the dark version of Kuba would bestow upon its owner a transcendental state of psychedelic vision that would pave the way for accurate predictions of the future and impossible knowledge of the past.
