Here's an eye-catching new riff on the Dunny from Chris Ryniak, whose 8-inch Meltdown Dunny from Kidrobot will launch on February 14 in four colors available from different sources. "Dunny went on holiday to Chernobyl, which turned out to be a bad idea," reads the Kidrobot announcement post. "[Glow in the dark] and semi-translucent, Meltdown Dunny is an 8 inch vinyl glowing ghost featuring dead eyes and what’s left of his pet fish."

Created by producers Diplo and DJ Switch, Major Lazer is both a dancehall music collaboration that's yielded an album and a couple EPs, and the name of a fictional commando with a lazer gun for an arm. With a new album due out next month and a tour on the horizon, Major Lazer (the group) has collaborated with Kidrobot to create a 7-inch vinyl figure based on Major Lazer (the character).

Initially released last June, Parra's stunning "Pierced" sculpture was an immediate hit, with the 300 units of the original red-and-blue statue of lovers intertwined selling out almost immediately. Luckily, those who missed out on the initial design can soon spring for the second edition, dubbed the Shades of Grey version in tribute to a certain sensational erotic novel series.

It's usually a quiet time for news between the holidays, but Kidrobot has bucked the trend with today's announcement of the fantastic-looking Flight 3-Inch Dunny designed by KaNO.
