Munn-day Morning Recap: A delicious treat
Munn-day Morning Recap is back for yet another week, ready to show off the cool Munnys and Dunnys you may or may not have seen in the past few weeks. As always, these are customs that weren't highlighted in individual posts on Tomopop, but were still worth bringing to your attention. And if it's not morning where you are ... then you're doing it wrong. This week's got a few new customs, including one with real food and one that's a bigger version of a much smaller Dunny. Which one, though? And is that rice actually edible? Hit the jump and check it all out!
Chinese Rice Bowl Dunny by AW177 Let's start with the custom from the header. Allen Wen (a.k.a. AW177) was invited to join the 30th Anniversary Dunny Trade in celebration of artist Tim Munz' (aka timself) 30th birthday. His choice was based on the design of a traditional Chinese rice bowl. It'll come with a small bag of rice, two types of chopsticks and a chopsticks holder that fits into one of the Dunny's hands. Love the look, especially the glazed finish he gave the Dunny!
8" Lion Dunny by Chuckboy Chuckboy's just finished up an 8" version of his classic Lion Dunny for some lucky collector. I love the original (and sadly do not own it), so seeing it transfered so well onto a bigger Dunny canvas makes me wish that Kidrobot would have actually released this Dunny themselves. Be right back, going to flip a table ...
Custom Munny (and Stomper) by Michal Nowak From the land of my people (or at least the majority of my heritage) comes a custom Munny from Michal Nowak for the Warsaw Plastic show. The little zombified fellow also comes with a "controlling" Stomper, a character created by Michal that should hopefully be for sale in the future. [via Plastic and Plush]
Puck and Guardian Munnys by Grimsheep Comic Con is coming, so why not some comic-themed toys? Grimsheep's got ones of Puck and Guardian (of Marvel Alpha Flight fame) that look pretty cool. These guys are for the Dragatomi booth at this year's event (#4935), which I'll be stopping at, so I'll be sure to stop by and snap a few pics for you guys! [via toycutter]
Recon Dunnys and Cruiser by Phu! Finally, we have another new batch of customs from Phu!, and these happen to be Dunnys. I love how he's kept the basic shape with those ear-like extensions on the Dunnys. Don't know if I'd want to run into any of them on Earth, though! [If there are any custom Dunnys or Munnys you spot and want to see featured in this feature, or if you're an artist who wants to send along a tip, feel free to e-mail us at tips (at) tomopop (dot) com!] Did you know?
