Stereo Boy

Junichi Tsuneoka was born and raised in Japan and, upon graduating Waseda University in Tokyo, arrived in the US at the end of the 20th Century. Being a graphic designer at Modern Dog Design Co. for six years really made a great impact on Junichi’s design career. Because of that experience, Junichi established a style often recognized as “California Roll Stylie,” the result of both a visual and conceptual fusion of Japanese pop culture and American urban culture. He founded STUDIO STUBBORN SIDEBURN to broaden his visual communication and to employ his visual language in art, illustration, and design. Junichi’s pieces possess highly communicative, assertive graphics, and contain clear signs pointing back to his strong design background. Producer of the ultimate limited edition vinyl toys. We set out on an adventure to 'Inspire to create'. A burning love for art, design and everything to do with creative culture forced us to sow the Dudebox seed back in 2010. We really had no choice! Pure creative energy can't be held back. We have been surrounded by exciting visionaries and creatives from all around the world for a long time. Now, coming together as Dudebox we want to give these talented artists a new platform to express themselves from. Our motivation is simple. We want to INSPIRE TO CREATE! This is our mission statement and our mantra. It keeps us in mind of who we are doing this for and that is the artists, the collectors and anyone else who is new to the world of vinyl toys and wants to discover more On Scratch, Jonny Wan brings us an alternative colourway and mini version of Crackal, Andreas Krapf has created an octopus hunter (with his catch), Drunk Park shows us his Bong Jovi and Travis Price has created an x-ray with bit of a special touch (*hint: turn out the lights). Ted has been turned into M.I.L.K. Catbot by Attaboy and Japanese artist Junichi Tsuneoka delivers in his trademark style. The Dude gets the Suki Bamboo treatment with Frosty, Chauskoskis' Big Red Dude is someone you wouldn't want to mess with, The Yok turns his graffiti style in to vinyl, as does The Dude creator Mark Gmehling with Hip Hop Attitude.
