Chris "
alto" Dobson has taken the classic Dunny form and reinterpreted it into his own angular style, calling the resulting form "Evil Origami." Seen above is the 3D-printed prototype of the render, which Dobson plans to cast in resin for release in the near future. Though we're told this would be only the first step towards making a wider Alto universe, filled with wonderfully minimalist creations.
I'm going to ignore the possible questions of bootleg or not a bootleg, since — in the end — all I care about it is the fact that it looks bleeding cool… and it does! To keep up-to-date on what's happening with this project,
give Dobson a follow on Twitter.

And the hits keep coming! We've
been posting about
Dragatomi's 50 blind box custom Android series for the 2012
San Diego Comic-Con (SDCC) and, it appears, the above are work-in-progress shots of DrilOne's contribution. Not only do the treads work on this "Android Tank" but the gasmasked pilot is none other than "Titus the Bear" from
RocketWorld's I.W.G. (Insurgent Wilderness Gruppo) mini series. I'm loving the look of this piece, which shouldn't be a surprise… the design is right up my alley! The blind boxed series will be available at Dragatomi's SDCC Booth (#4935) for $80 each, though we don't know which day it will drop yet…

Well, hello there, sweet lookin' array of Paws figures! And who are you, pink guy in the middle? I don't think we've met before… Probably because he hasn't been released yet!
Coarse Toys will producing a limited run of this "Blush Paw!" exclusively for German-based retailer
Toykio. While details are less-than-complete, I'm assuming it will be an edition of 50 copies for roughly $150 each.

The guys over at
Rotobox Vinyl are heading back to SDCC this year with their guns fully loaded... figuratively and literally as they are proud to announce the release of their next vinyl figure "
Revolver Girl 6ix" - Barenaked Edition. This figure, spotted in raw vinyl
HERE, and based on the OG Celsius platform features the same body/head shape... the only thin I can see different is the addition of hair. Retailing for $75, and available at the
Kuso Vinyl booth #4937, the figure is limited to
100 pieces and it includes 2 revolvers, mini comic book, and a terrycloth towel... and yes, the towel is removable! It has been a few years since these guys have made it out to SDCC, so it will be good to see them. The official release and signing do not have a date or time set just yet, but we will update you all when we find out!

Have you ever stared at
VISEone's amazing looking "Tube Dunny" series custom creations and longed to own one, even though your bank account couldn't afford the extra expense? Yea, me too… common problem, I'd imagine. Which is why VISEone's announcement a new 8" vinyl figure he's designed — the "Tube Monster" — is so amazing… now we can all afford one. Well, unfortunately not now as in "right this minute" since, as you can see above, the piece is still in the prototype stage. But the first colorway — and there will be multiple — is the "Zombie Juice Edition" and it's set to be released at
New York Comic-Con this year!

Artist
SketOne just announced a really cool custom run of 8" FatCaps's... which by the way are based off his original 20" custom completed in 2006 for Kidrobot's "
Paintball Show", then reproduced as a production figure for FatCap Series 2... and now re-re-produced as a custom run... things come full circle :-) Available on 6/22/12 at 12pm EST, these rad looking, fully functional 8" NYPD & LAPD custom FatCaps will be up for grabs via Sket's online store
HERE. There are only 10 of each style produced worldwide and each one comes signed and numbered.
I gotta say that the best part about these customs is the functionality... the fact that it includes a working light that shines and rotates is awesome... and will be a true beacon for any designer toy collection, literally! Each one also comes with a custom billy club accessory, and a custom crash guard... SWEET! Sket pulled out all the stops for this release, and I am really diggin what I am seeing!

Jeremiah Ketner will releasing a very limited run of Artist Proof (AP) copies for his "Sayonara" design from
Kidrobot's upcoming 3" Dunny Series 2012. Ketner has hand-painted flowers on each Dunny and dusted them with pearlescent blue paint before signing & numbering them in an edition of only 15. Aside from coming with all the original packaging, each AP Dunny comes with a matching signed & numbered 8" x 10" giclée print on a heavyweight sugarcane paper. These will be available starting at 12 Noon Central time on Monday, June 18th in
Ketner's online shop for $75 each. For the true collector, though, Ketner is offering out one extra AP Dunny with the original 8" x 10" painting used for the artist card & print… this unique set will cost $300 and be released at the same time as the others.

Leaving devastation in his wake, cracking buildings as if they were dry twigs, crushing puny humans under his… well, let's face it, awkward steps. Yes, that's right, it's a new version of the
Jeff Lamm's Greasebat! Originally sculpted by
Chauskoskis and produced in sofubi (soft Japanese vinyl) by
Monster Worship, this rare sub-species of Greasebat stands 7-inches tall with a solid, sky blue Pantone coloration with brilliant red, gold and silver highlights. And not only is this version exclusive to
Stranger Factory, but each one comes polybagged with a signed header card! Set to retail for $85, the exact release date is forthcoming.

A while back we posted up some post-apocalyptic looking vinyl figures called "T.H.U.G." created by
Unison Lab of Chile... it looks like they have been busy creating more new characters in their ever expanding universe and they have just announced a new colorway of their "THUG-SH" STORMHAMMER figure... the "DEATH MILITIA UNIT" edition! It measures 8" tall and is made from soft 100% ECO-FRIENDLY VINYL. It has 2 points of articulation, and comes with an enclosed swappable handset... DRILL, ROBOT HAND PILLS, and HAMMER! This green/black colorway is set to retail for $100 a piece... it is a large chunk of vinyl, and it if were $80, that would make it a little easier to swallow... nonetheless, it's a cool looking figure and will be available in most designer vinyl toy retail locations very soon! Oh, and if you are a retailer, they can be ordered directly through
DKE toys.

I really am diggin these clear tints... something kinda magical about them :-) We encourage everyone to follow

The fine folks of
Clutter have shared the above design sheet from
Kidrobot's 3" Dunny Series 2012 and, as opposed to
earlier ones seen, this one includes all the variants with ratios! That being said, hit the jump to see the full reveal!
Top Row: "Mahākāla" (regular/black) by Andrew Bell (1/80), "Mahākāla" (variant/red) by Andrew Bell (1/80), "Jonahone Giraffe" by D. Ross "Scribe" (3/40), "Ninja Spiki" by Nakanari (1/40), and "Sayonara" by Jeremiah Ketner (3/40).
Second Row: "Ping" by Mauro Gatti (3/40), "Pong" by Mauro Gatti (3/40), "untitled" (regular/white) by Jon-Paul Kaiser (1/20), "untitled" (variant/red) by Jon-Paul Kaiser (1/60), "untitled" (variant/blue) by Jon-Paul Kaiser (1/60), and "untitled" (variant/green) by Jon-Paul Kaiser (1/60).
Third Row: "untitled" by Kronk (1/160), "Project: Dunny" by Sergio Mancini (2/20), "Vandal Dunny" by MAD (2/20), and "Purple Soda Girl" by Junko Mizuno (3/160).
Bottom Row: "The Sword Swallower" by Triclops Studio (2/20), "The Dead Astronaut" by Pac23 (2/20), "Wiggle Land" (regular/pink) by Tara McPherson (7/80), "Wiggle Land" (variant/black) by Tara McPherson (1/80), and "untitled" by Attaboy (1/40).
Now, the earlier released design sheet did list the regular "Mahākāla" design by Bell as being 1/40 & not 1/80, the regular Jon Paul Kaiser design as being 2/20 & not 1/20, and the pink "Wiggle Land" by Tara McPherson as 2/20 & not 7/80… We've posted pictures of all the actual production figures already, most of which can be seen
HERE. In addition, you can view both "Wiggle Land" figures by McPherson
HERE, Ketner's "Sayonara"
HERE, the JonPaul Kaiser's
HERE and
HERE, and the red Bell variant
HERE. Heck, we even posted a teaser of the Sucklord designed case exclusive Dunny
HERE.
****UPDATE****
Thanks to artist
Sergio Mancini, who received his AP case of Dunny's for this 2012 series, we have actual photos of the boxes with know ratios on them. So without a doubt, this is what you can expect... other than that, all other ratios are still unknown.
