About this Platform
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. Bio Don P (Patrick Lippe)Don P lives and works near The Haque, The Netherlands (Europe). In early 2010 Don P lost his heart on the Kidrobot Mascot. When he saw the Kidrobot Mascot 17 SGT Black he was lost and he gained a huge collection of Mascots. Since the last months he slightly changed his collection and decided to collect custom Skull Munny's too. For several years Don P was designing Sony Ericsson themes. He made more than 500 themes for several phones of Sony Ericsson. Don P (PatrickL) is a wellknown name in the world of themes making. He won quite some competitions and was asked by several companies to make themes for them. Since it was just a hobby, he decided to not makes his work out of it. In 2009 Don P made his last theme. Since a year Don P is customizing designer toys and his name is growing in the Vinyl Art scene. He made it in his first year of customizing in Kidrobots Blog "The Kronikle", they stated that he was an emerging customizer. Don P has his own style of customizing these days, what he is calling Apocalyps-style. This style is a mixture of dirt, Mintyfresh is a feeling... it's the smell that get's released after you buy something new, you come home and rip off that plastic wrap to love and cuddle your new product. This is also the thought behind Mintyfresh, we want to give each customer the feeling that the product they bought was specially made for them en make sure they treat it with as much love as we do! The idea for Mintyfresh came during a road trip to Germany in 2007 by 2 buddies Joël and Leon, but only halfway 2008 we finally did something with these idea's and Mintyfresh was founded. With all the passion and love we put into Mintyfresh we are convinced that Mintyfresh is doing it's best to deliver the highest quality of service and products like Designer Toys, Plush, Prints and Apparel.
