Ye Olde English UK Dunny Series Chase and Variant Figures

Kidrobot - Ye Olde English UK Dunny Series
Well the UK Dunny Series officially launches today and I wanted to share some pictures of the two mystery chase Dunnys and the variant colorway Dunny. The two chase Dunnys below are by Keanan Duffty and Shok-1. The Duffty Dunny is the rarer of the figures (with a ratio of 1/50), so it should be one of the two hardest figures to collect. The Shok-1 figure on the other hand is pretty common with a ratio of 2/25.

The second picture is of the red glow in the dark Mimic variant Dunny. There is no word yet as to how rare this red GID version of the Mimic Dunny is though. It will either be extremely common, like with the two Tizieu’s Afro Dunnys from the French Series, or slightly rarer than the standard black Mimic Dunny like with Series 4’s open eyed/closed eyed Lucky Cat Dunnys.

The worst news surrounding Kidrobot's latest release is that it looks like there are no Golden Tickets being randomly inserted in this Series' blind boxes. I have no clue why Kidrobot decided to do away with the GTs this time around, but I’m pretty bummed by their decision. I’m really interested in seeing what effect this has on collectors buying extra cases/blind boxes.

To be honest, I’m not really feeling any of the UK Series’ mystery Dunnys. The only saving grace to this Series would be if the mystery ratio figures by Doktor A and HiCalorie x Julie West end up being fairly common so I have a chance of pulling them. Those two figures and the extremely common Rainhead Dunny by Triclops are really the only figures I want to get.

Thanks to Rotofugi for the top picture! You can purchase Ye Olde English Dunny Series blind boxes from Rotofugi for $7.95 here and a case of 25 blind boxes from them for $188.75 here.

Ye Olde English UK Dunny Series - Jon Burgerman, HiCalorie x Julie West, Triclops, Tado, Doktor A & Clutter DunnysSome of the best looking designs seem to be pretty easy to get, and even the rarest figures are only 1/50. Here’s hoping the mystery ratio figures aren’t any harder to get, because I really love the Doktor A and HiCalorie x Julie West Dunnys. I'm not really sure how many of these UK Dunnys I’ll actually be trying to get, but I will definitely be attending the local Dunny Trading Party here in Houston, TX at Domy Books on Thursday night. Below are the latest pictures of most of the Ye Olde English Dunny Series (still cant find pictures of the Shok-1 or Keanan Duffty chase figures).

Ye Olde English UK 3 Inch Dunny Series and Ratios

Kidrobot sure knows how to start off the New Year with a bang. This week they announced a brand new series of 3” Dunnys would be coming out on January 22nd. The Ye Olde English Dunny Series features some of the hottest artists from the UK and is sure to have fans scrambling to collect the set’s 17 blind boxed 3 inch vinyl figures, which also includes 2 chase figures. The only downside to this series is the increased price. A blind box will now cost collectors $7.95 a figure.

For all the Dunny collectors out there The Blot is excited to share the UK Series’ ratios, which you can check out in the photo below. From the numbers here, it looks like it shouldn’t be too hard to collect the entire series! Without having seen the two chase figures yet, I have to say I think the Rain Man Dunny is my favorite so far with Doktor A’s figure coming at a close second. Anyone else picked out their favorite UK Dunny yet?
