Kidrobot - Cobbler 8 Inch Dunny by TADO

Work and play go hand in hand for TADO’s Cobbler Dunny. I can’t explain why, but The Blot really likes the simple design of Kidrobot’s newest 8 inch Dunny. If only the Cobbler Dunny by TADO wasn’t $75! I understand the why a price increase was implemented, but KR needs to at least make me feel like I’m getting my money’s worth (or throw in some really cool accessories). Nevertheless, the figure looks great and I really like the design’s colors.


The Cobbler 8” Dunny by TADO is limited to 1,500 figures and retails for $75 (£65 UK; 75€ Europe). This 8 inch shoemaker is scheduled to bring his sunny demeanor to all Kidrobot stores, kidrobot.com and select retailers on May 6, 2010.

T.W.O.C. the Elf 2009 Holiday Dunny Chase by TADO

The 2009 Holiday Dunny, Krunk-a-Claus by TADO, is finally here. From what The Blot’s heard, a lot of stores didn’t receive their shipment of Krunk-a-Claus 3" Dunnys last week because of Veteran’s Day. But thankfully TADO’s Holiday Dunny is now in stock at most stores, and we now know what its 1 in 10 chase, the evil T.W.O.C. the Elf, looks like!


No word yet on whether or not there is a rarer 3rd chase, but it sounds like T.W.O.C. the Evil Elf has been pretty easy to find even with its 1:10 ratio. I was surprised to learn that T.W.O.C. (which I can only guess stands for “Taking Without Owner’s Consent”) has elfin ears instead of classic Dunny ears like almost every other production Dunny released to date. The Dunny’s ears personify its signature look, and I was shocked to find out Kidrobot replaced them on its 2009 Holiday Dunny chase.

T.W.O.C. comes with a crowbar and hat, and retails for $9.95 each. You can purchase the 2009 3 Inch Holiday Dunny by TADO here.

Krunk-A-Claus 3 Inch Holiday Dunny by TADO

Kidrobot’s 2009 Holiday Dunny is almost here! Get in the Yuletide spirit a little early this November with TADO’s 3” Krunk-A-Clause Dunny. With a bottle of ‘nog and an ice cream cone, the jolly Krunk is the gift that keeps on giving. But watch out for the crowbar wielding, holiday hating chase!


TADO’s Krunk-A-Claus Dunny comes blind boxed and will retail for $9.95 each.
