About this Platform

The toy is based on a rabbit figure with distinctive tubular ears. The origin of the name Dunny came from a combination of street slang and one of the early "Devil Bunny" prototypes. The Dunny is sold in four sizes - 3", 5", 8" and 20". The toy has three points of articulation; a 360 degree rotational head and two arms. An artist card or sticker is also included with the 3" Dunny from a series. Most 3" Dunnys and some 8" Dunnys are normally sold as "blind assortment"; the figure is packaged inside a sealed foil wrapper, such that the buyer is not able to see which figure and accessories they are buying. Sealing the figure prevents people from opening and peeking in the boxes and buying only the figures they want. Most Dunnys are packaged inside a clear plastic bag in addition to the foil wrapper. In the second-hand market, this assures the buyer that the article was never on display and is in a "new" condition. With the success of vinyl toys as a medium for expression, many fans and artists have put their own design onto blank Dunnys. Rob likes to draw. Scratch that, Rob likes to draw a lot and has so ever since he was a little tyke. This is a good thing because now that he is all grownsed up, that's what he does full time. Draws, draws and draws. You see, Rob currently works as an illustrator at a magazine in Cincinnati, Ohio called CiN Weekly. There he gets to draw little pictures for articles people write for the magazine. He enjoys it. You know what else Rob enjoys? Music. And yeah you guessed it, he enjoys music a lot. This makes sense since Rob likes to design posters for bands when he is not making pictures for the magazine. His friend Keith also likes to draw. They decided to team up and draw posters together. This new team had to have a name so they decided to call themselves The Small Print Studios. This has allowed them to work with some of their favorite bands, including Cake and Black Rebel Motorcycle Club. So we've pretty much established Rob's love affair with drawing and creating posters. Maybe you've seen some of them in CiN Weekly or maybe you've seen them in a gigposter or two. Quite
