Retro themed oki-ni Dunny releases Sept 6th photo

Our beloved .Tiff was kind enough to point me in the direction of this amazing new oki-ni 8-inch Dunny, which releases Sept 6th in a limited run of 1000 pieces. She and I are obsessed with all things vinyl, as we may have mentioned in our previous posts. Retro themed modern toys are like the perfect marriage of geek love and obsessive-compulsive collector syndrome. Best part of these lovelies is that you can buy your own blank ones and paint to your heart's content. Creating your own theme has become extremely popular and has urged some fantastic art out of the woodwork, not to mention driving a lucrative subculture -- some custom Dunnys sell for thousands of dollars apiece. Someone really should whip up a Big Daddy Dunny, if it hasn't been done already. I'd make it myself, but I can't paint to save my life.

I just realized that this figure has Space Invaders shields its his nipples. The cool factor just skyrocketed.

Also, those aren't controllers. They're the shields from Space Invaders.

Pretty Cool. I've been meaning to do one of these but...damn I'm lazy. And I hate painting. I do have a blank Munny lying around though waiting to be customized.

I could use some cool vinyl things for my desk. Never would I buy a blank one since the closest I can get to art is with photography.
