About this Series
Chauskoskis AKA Walter Jacott started working on the first Baby Greasebat long before he sold it on November 15th, 2013 to go along with his last custom Greasebat. His goal is to try to make every single Greasebat colorway in Baby Greasebat form, so that the Greasebat collector can own babies of each of his/her toys. 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. Chauskoskis, the artistic alias of Mexican artist Walter Jacott, is a self-taught creator renowned in the designer toy community for his imaginative and often whimsical characters. His multifaceted career spans graphic design, painting, sculpting, and illustration. Chauskoskis’s work is deeply influenced by Mexican pop culture, including comic books, lucha libre, fantasy, horror, science fiction, and classic cartoons. These elements converge to form a unique aesthetic that blends the eerie with the endearing, resulting in a diverse array of peculiar and captivating characters.
