Wood Dunny Chiseler
by Kidrobot | September 4, 2009 | Published in Toys | 9 Comments
Brooklyn designer, David Weeks, has given Dunny a wooden revamp, christened the “Chiseler.” Modeled after Weeks’ poseable timber toys Hanno the Gorilla and Ursa the Bear, the ultra-exclusive Chiseler (only five were fashioned) is hand-hewn and sanded from zebra-striped hard pine, creating sculpted facets out of Dunny’s familiar roundness.
Despite the swivel head and arms, each distinct Chiseler is less a plaything than an individualized artwork, right down to its custom-crafted wooden crate displaying the action figure’s laser-etched image.
Each sculptural Chiseler subtly differs from its sibling, resulting in a real Dunny rarity: a one-of-a-kind creation made just for you.

What’s the scale? Must be 8″ if really $1200. Will make nice addition to hardcore collector collection.

[...] David Weeks hat sich mal etwas anderes ausgedacht, als die bekannten Plastikfiguren. Zusammen mit Kidrobot wurde der Dunny in Holz gepackt. Die Mischung aus harten und weichen Kanten inkl. schwenkbarem Kopf und einem extra Armset machen die Figur sicherlich begehrt. Limitiert auf nur 5 Exemplare kommt die Figur inkl. Holzbox am 22. September zu Kidrobot. Via KRonikle [...]
