The Dunny is a  3, 8 or 20-inch vinyl figure based on the shape of a rabbit with very distinctive tubular ears and was create by Paul Budnitz and Tristan Eaton and produced by Kidrobot in 2004.

The Dunny is a “blank” figure which Kidirobot send out to renowned artists and designers to “decorate” or “style” it to their taste, thereby creating a unique and original product, some artist have even produced Dunnys’ as tall as 4 feet

The name is a cross between street slang and one of the early prototypes, a “Devil Bunny”. The articulation is very basic with a 360-degree turning head and articulated arms. Some also come with accessories depending on the theme.
