So the KR October releases are up - here's a quick run down. First up the 8" Dunny's and the big talking point is Huck's "Hello i'm Insane" figure above limited to 500. Not my cup of tea TBH as it doesn't look like a Huck piece - even if it's based on an existing custom - but as a companion to the "Hello" fig probably makes more sense.
Next up is Aussie illustrator Jeremyville - really glad he's been given a chance to do a Dunny as I always thought his style could compliment the shape. Really liking the detail on the back of the head. As a bonus this piece also comes with a poster.
I'll skip over the Paul Pope Playboy figure and Mega Munny and go straight to the Heff Peecol. I don't like Peecol's but as a figure this did at least make me smirk. I think it's the hat...i'm a sucker for hats!
Then there's the latest Kidrobot figure Kidreaper 15 designed by the awesome Andrew Bell. Definitely liking his take on the KR icon and IMO this is the strongest KR fig in a long time, the GID paint is just a bonus. The bloodstained scythe just adds to the overall greatness of this fig, slightly ruined by the pointless "15" on the shoes. ..surely somewhere better to put the number?
Lastly, but not least is a new mini fig line "Heroes and Heartbreakers" from the under-rated Ryan Bubnis. I mean they're zombies so therefore already brilliant!!16 figures in the series and 2 chases. Two words: Zombie Treestump!
