Travis Cain wants you SpankyStokes readers to know he just put up on eBay an entire set of these rare-ass wood Dunnys you heard about right here last week. There are only 300 of these between the four variants, and the distribution is not equal. He's selling his own Dunny 2009 APs, and each one will come signed and numbered with a hand-painted (spraypaint, acrylic and stencil) print commemorating the project. The bidding has begun. Of course there's at least one joker flipping a wood Dunny using another artist's name for keyword credit. Fail. But here's how to not fail: bid directly from the artist, and you just might win.

"Sideshow Barker" Pugzee & Sidekick
Sideshow Barker will be available for sale by Cookies -n- Cream on September 18th at 12am EST, www.BakedinNY.com, and the figure will retail for $64.99!
This awesome paint job of "Sideshow Barker" Pugzee was designed and executed by Brandy Anderson. Brandy Anderson is responsible for painting every prototype produced by Inu Art and has been working with Dave Cortes for over 6 years. Sideshow Barker, appropriately named by Brandy Anderson was conceived when Dave Cortes dropped a blank resin casting at Brandy's place with the idea that she should paint it whatever way she wanted. Dave was blown away when Brandy dropped off the tatted pug as Coney Island's Illustrated Man.
Sideshow Barker will come with the same accessories as the Jailbreaker and Streetwise versions, but will also include a limited color casting of his boardwalk buddy "Vinny Hotdogs". This dirty Nathan Hotdog eatin' Rat will come in 40 different casted colors. Each casted color will be limited to 5 of a kind. Colors will range from opaque to clear tinted and will be selected at random with every Sideshow Barker purchase. Sideshow barker will be limited to 200 pieces with its limited accessory "Vinny Hotdogs". Sideshow Barker will also come with a cool boardwalk base and Retro Packaging, the figure will retail for $64.99.
*Please note that the Vinny Hotdogs pictured in the images will not be the one that comes with Sideshow Barker. The one that comes with every purchase will be selected at random from the 5 limited colors.

2PetalRose Graff King...With a Beanie
OK everybody, I've got to write fast. John's letting a few of us hijack his blog for a couple days, and since SpankyStokes has been so supportive of 2PetalRose, I don't want to let anybody down. I own one of Liam and Ben's 1/1 resin figures (Wellington from The Resin Collective), and like a healthier and more expensive Pringles habit, I want more. These Graff Kings are nothing short of amazing. Coming from me, that's saying something too, because I'm really burnt out on toys involving spraycans. Under the brothers Scriven's steady hands, gaze and style, "urban art" isn't as cringe-worthy a term as it's been lately. I love everything about these guys, from the fact that they're resin to the super-clean paint app, to the hand-made clothes, and finally: the wall. It's like a 2-for-1: you get a 3D toy and a 2D painting. In this case (and at this precise moment according to XE), you can get this for just under $100 USD. Here's the link. I suggest if you want this piece, you get clicking. These one-off figures go fast. Missed it? Drop them a line. They're happy to work with you on a Graff King custom where you choose the wall art.
