Dunny Evolved Teaser... Kronk Style Part Two

Hey Big Spenda!


Just as he said, Kronk has delivered the vivid pallette and we here at CBT are impressed!! Foolish of us to doubt Kronk's works!  Posted a few minutes ago on the Kidrobot Facebook page, what can only be called the next stage - devolution almost - of a shy strip club party goer. This party animal is in full swing, bow tie unfurled, drooling, flushed in the face and makin' in rain!  This one is hilarious. We also love the touch of the heart ears!  We're excited at what his 3rd stage will bring.  Stay tuned!

Dunny Evolved Teaser.... Kronk style


The Dunny Evolved saga continues...! Posted recently via Kidrobot's Facebook page, the Kronk stages have begun to be teased. I'm guessing this is the middle, "modern" stage or evolution.  Though I like the idea, I'm not sold on the execution. Kronk's normally vivid color palettes are toned down here. I'm getting a sort of 60's feel with the leisure suit, the sweat and the lady silhouettes. An almost bumbling secret agent vibe  Stay tuned for updates on the next Dunny Evolved reveal! 

EDIT:
After tweeting this post, the man KRONK himself replied... 


as fans of the Kronk style, CBT has nothing to say except...

Also waiting in the wings is Mike Sutfin's Artist Edition.  Available on his online shop soon

A little over 30 years ago, the dream team of George Romero, Tom Savini & Stephen King came together to create the film CREEPSHOW, and we couldn't be more excited to present Mike Sutfin's take on the classic horror anthology.

It may be a little early in the season for scares, but we have such a fun and horror filled October ahead of us that we couldn't help getting started a little prematurely.

Shenkai Bo by Squink!




Chris Squink and his the works released by Squink! are amazing.  Known for his beautiful yet eerily haunting and ethereal works, the light, airy feel of his works are quite refreshing in a world of heavy, more serious fare.  Today CBT is bringing you the second in the Happy Dream Man series, Shenkai-Bo.  Clearly inspired by the Samurai of old, this oranged headed chap began his training in the squink studio as a normal 3" dunny.  An original head sculpt was created and then cast in resin for the final product.  A glass bead necklace, sword, and armour bits were added to arm this tiny warrior for the days ahead.  Shenkai will arrive complete with a signed & titled eco gift box as well as a numbered collector's card.  You can recruit Shenkai-Bo for £70 on September 19th, 2013 at 9PM BST or 1PM PST

Siamese 2 by Scott Wilkowski Will Give You Azure Nightmares


Currently available on Scott Wilkowski's site, is a rare item of ghastly origins.  Titled simply Siamese 2, this dual headed, beastly blue beauty is cast in white, light blue and dark blue resin.  Standing 6" tall , mounted on a stand you can have this startling Siamese for $80 plus shipping.  I'm a fan of Scott's work, however this one is a bit too macabre for even me or Kiddo! Move quickly!  This oddity is limited and could disappear anytime!
