Atropa Dunny by Jason Limon x Kidrobot & Pre-Release Signing Tour (April 26-release)
Kidrobot previews the "Atropa Dunny designed by Jason Limon, and I reckon tis a long-time coming Dunny-design from Limon, in his by-now-iconic stylings. First time seeing it in 2D on paper (can't tell you where I saw it tho ;p), I was pretty jazzed by it, now seeing it on a 3D-form? Tis an exceptional experience, especially with the sculpted face! Good job all around! Nevertheless check out the product press mentioned below:
PRESS: In Jason Limon’s post-apocalyptic Earth, humans have ravaged the planet, and plant life has found a way to make a drastic shift to survive. Atropa comes to fruition, and in abundance, consumes the planet. They commandeer the bodies of remaining people and animals, blending mammal and plant to create a new life form. Body becomes seed, leaves become wings, and memories live on flowering vines. Atropa is the new life form, and the only one that can survive.
The new era begins April 26 at Kidrobot stores, kidrobot.com, and select retailers. Retailing for $70 US, the Atropa 8-inch Dunny by Jason Limon is a limited edition of 1,000 pieces worldwide. (Source: Kidrobot)
