About this Artist
You see, Fiona grew up loving toys not because they were just fun to play with. But because they brought a smile to her face. Their creativity, stories, characters, and endless possibilities for exploration and adventure lit up her imagination. Fiona loves making people smile with her toy creations and illustrations. When she’s not trying to make people smile with her petite armored toy heroes and heroines, she enjoys spending her time baking sugary sweets. One day, she thought, “Why not put the two together?” Although she doesn’t make armored cake figures, she does like to combine her adventurous toy knights with old Kilner jars and pastry displays that bring to mind the feel good memories of candy shops, catching fireflies on warm summer days, and childhood playfulness and imagination. She enjoys capturing and sharing these sweet glimpses of her otherworldly adventurers/adventures with anyone who needs a little dose of playfulness injected back into their life. Fiona’s fantastical creations and designs have mostly been inspired by her deep love and appreciation for fantasy/sci-fi novels, JRR Tolkien, Ursula K. Le Guin, video games, Star Wars, and anything quirky or strange. 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.
