A Munny is a figure created by Kidrobot and made out of vinyl with movable joints. The initial idea was undertaken by taggers/ street artists/ street art designs and toys from (illegal artists) who have come to bring back their work legally to the public to display their works. The figures are blank and the owner can decorate them using pens, pencils, markers, paint, and other supplies. Alternatively, some people commission artists to design Munnys for them, or artists design them to sell. In MUNNYWORLD, you can do anything you want! MUNNY, BUB, TRIKKY, RAFFY, and ROOZ are the soft, super smooth vinyl figures that make up MUNNYWORLD. Each one is a blank canvas, and all ready for scribbling, piercing, painting, posing, piling, dressing up, and sculpting into forms straight from your imagination or you can keep them just as they are. See how great you truly are. Do amazing things and create more than ever before. And, most importantly, have fun with MUNNYWORLD Few things are as liberating as a fresh start—to which Nichole East, better known as the The Baroness in the toy and art worlds, will attest. In 1999, she arrived in New York with a duffle bag, $500, and enough exuberance, sass, and style to start a dance party in a dentist's waiting room. Today, she works with illustrators, artists, and tattooists, helping to bridge the gap between the art and toy scenes. She has also collaborated with such pop culture institutions as Playboy, Adult Swim and The Simpsons. Nichole started making waves after joining the world's premiere art toy company, Kidrobot, in 2003. Since then, it's been madness. She's organized fashion shows—Kidrobot's Fashion show in Toronto Fashion Week 2008; curated toy series—Seven Deadly Cins Ci-boy Series and Tattoo Dunny Series (a recent seller in Christie's Pop Culture Auction; and even designed her own toys—the 3" "Baroness" Dunny and the 8" glow-in-the-dark version a year later. She headed up the Marketing and Events department, leading the company's promotional, social networking, and event-related efforts. This basically means she did everything she's always done, but also dreamed up fresh marketing techniques like live painting shows, trading parties, chase races, and the always-awesome scavenger
