“After I blow a hole in somebody and slip around on their guts… afterwards, I like to make balloon animals.” – Steve Martin in Parenthood. Random, we know, but that came to mind upon seeing these Pop! Super Shiny 3-inch Mini Series toys from Kidrobot. They take the shape of little animals made out of balloons like you would get at a kid’s party, but shinier and doper. These are available now from Kidrobot.

It has been a while since the last Kidrobot Black release, the very limited and hard to get a hold of toy line by Kidrobot. Coming up is a new collaboration with artist Tara McPherson. This time she can bring one of her female characters to life and presents ‘Lilitu’.
“There is no hiding. A succubus walks. Lilitu. Sexually charged, violently destructive, A Sumerian myth, a demon to be feared. To love and to kill without remorse, one man at a time.
The unsuspecting only see the near-perfect human likeness – enticing eyes, supple mouth, lithe body – little noticed are the breasts of dripping poison and malicious intent.
Emerging from the cool, smoky depths, fresh from one kill, looking for the next, Lilitu is poised to allure. Calculated stance, intimately glossy, designed for desire – come nefarious courtesan.
Who can resist?”
The 8 inch vinyl toy is limited to 250 numbered pieces and will release soon here.

A while ago we presented the impressive collaboration between Kidrobot and Swatch on an artist driven collection of overall 8 watches and 8 matching Dunny toys. Today we present a cool stop motion video that was produced by Happycentro for Swatch on the project.
“Swatch has teamed up with Kidrobot, an art-driven toy and lifestyle brand, to create Kidrobot for Swatch, a collection of eight Gents, each accompanied by a complimentary Dunny. Dunny is Kidrobot’s iconic and highly collectible bunny-like vinyl toy, a customizable canvas for artists from widely varying backgrounds. Gary Baseman, Jeremyville, Frank Kozik, Joe Ledbetter, MAD, Tara McPherson, SSUR, and Tilt are the eight extraordinary artists who have contributed to the new collection, each with a characteristic design for a Gent and its accompanying 3-inch (7.6 cm) Dunny.
We made a short stopmotion animation for each design experience inspired by the world of each artist.”

In an interesting new collaboration, Mishka has teamed up with Kidrobot and today they unveiled the Keep Dunny Chase Figure.
“The 2011 Мишка Dunny has arrived in a blaze of chainsaw-massacring glory ready to skin your sister’s Barbie dolls alive. The beautiful minds over at Kidrobot finally succumbed to our relentless pressure and let us fuck with the Dunny form until it was almost unrecognizable. The 3-inch troublemaker is outfitted with a cute pair of blood-splattered overalls and a mini murder weapon to boot. Although we do choose favorites, all nineteen other cuddly collectables are delightfully deranged in their own special little way.
Each individual Dunny is blind-boxed, so you never know what twisted and ultra-limited artistic creation you’ll get. But ours is a chase figure, so yeah shit’s gonna be incredibly rare to get your grubby paws on.”
It sounds like you might have to get a few Dunnys before coming across this one. The official release takes place on June 23rd, 2011.

On Thursday Feb 17th, 2011 Kidrobot will be releasing it’s newest mini figure series in collaboration with Family Guy!
Giggity-giggity-goo… Seth MacFarlane’s ridiculous Fox hit gets Kidrobot-ified with these 3-inch FGKRs. Packed full of all those utterly inappropriate good old-fashioned values on which we used to rely, it’s Family Guy! Your faves Peter, Lois, Chris, Stewie and Brian are there along with what’s-her-face. Don’t want to Stop Believin’? Quagmire, Joe and Cleveland make it happen. With more accessories than correctness, each of the 15 blind boxed figures comes with an insert card and begs the question, “Which FGKR will you get?”
