I love love love this one!!! You can find him easy because you can here the gum balls when you shake the box. Though people at a shop might look at you funny when you do. lol By the way it's even cuter in person. Awwww.

There was a lot of shaking going on last night, you can't tell the difference between the gold and red ones by shaking though ;)

I suppose you are correct jazzydan... wonder if that means I will end up with a bunch of the red ones at some point. LOL.

I remember seeing a custom dunny with the same idea a few years ago and it was the first custom dunny I ever really wanted, so it's really cool they made an official one like it

Just got it but I'm surprised the body is not vinyl. Why do you think they did that? Also, can't decided whether to stick the 25ยข sticker on.
-
13 years ago
I was surprised that that was a sticker and not printed on, but I really like the look of it, so I put it on immediately after I opened mine.

Jen - the Dunny head at least is not vinyl because it's almost impossible to mass-produce vinyl to be that clear and even.
I have no idea why the body and hands are ABS too -
13 years ago
Yes, it was the body I was questioning. Thought I'd bought a fake at first, just felt weird.
-
13 years ago
Hmm ABS is cheaper to mass produce, I wonder if they are slowly moving over? Do a few pieces in ABS and see peoples reaction?
-
13 years ago
yeah let's rename it to designer abs toys. bring vinyl back!
-

This is my very first Dunny. Still haven't put on the sticker. Scared I'll mess it up.

Is this Ox-Op series 1? I'm pretty certain it is, but not positive.
-

Yes it is. It's on the ox-op website with a question mark over it for the mystery artist of the series.

Any way to get a full picture? I like this one but not for this site. Artistic is good but not necessarily for a "reference" site, book etc.

What is the difference between this one and this http://rotocasted.com/toy/4511/ (Signature Edition)? I've been trying to look it up and have not seen anything!
I can not tell from the picture, but is it just that the blood is coming out of the mouth on one and not the other? -

@ dphear. The difference between the sig and the HKG edition is that the HKG edition has blood coming down the side of his face where as the sig has it coming out of his mouth. The HKG edition comes in the wooden box and has a signed print (each print has a different hand painted blood stain/dripping on noop) limited to 100 pieces. The sig edition does comes in a cardboard box and no print.

I called the owner of Toykyo today. They recently told me that they have collectors who purchase every sculpture they make. So i guess they get contacted first. The previous birds were for sale at Toykyo for +-$500 each, Colette sold them for +-$1080 :-s and they were gone in no time. The new birds are $400 each + shipping.
Let me know if you want to buy one, i can call right away. -

Vera, listen, please...I don't have an issue about other people's semi-personal comments. I love them! Sil and I did that, but some people were annoyed. As far as I see it, it makes Roto alive. It's not like the clever comments are standing in queue!!!! Mostly it's just ; "I love this..blah blah".... But the moment people are getting personal, it's all : GET A ROOM! . Roto was meant to connect people, right?
Maybe in the near future Sergey will add a chat room????????? -

I agree,personal comments are interesting and bring a little humanity to the collecting experience.
I wouldn't like to think we are all po-faced collectors just in it for the investment!
These are toys! Let's have fun! :) -

thank you for pointing this out, TOY and MaquetteCity!
because of the "complaints" a while ago, i feel a bit uncomfortable now to make more than 1 or 2 personal comments at all...

YESSSSSS!! :D
that pic made me smile up to both ears!! smart idea and i gotta say, i love your taste in shoes! i would wear that kind and color of shoe, too...but it seems, like you got tiny feet! lucky girl! -
13 years ago
actually, I am terribly unlucky with shoes :-( I have tiny feet indeed, but not enough tiny for those beautiful red shoes... I just bought them online and unfortunately they are too small. I love them a lot, so they might end up as... display shoes, haha. lesson learnt: never buy shoes online, buy only toys :-)
-
13 years ago
@ penguin: i gotta agree, it looks bigger than i expected as well, but as vera said, she has tiny feet, hence the shoes are tiny, too ;)
@vera: may i ask for your shoe size? your feet might look like baby ones next to a 10 1/5 - 11
and can't you exchange those ones for a size bigger or was that an ebay auction and not an online store??? -
13 years ago
I wear size 36 (european) and yes, it was an eBay auction, no bigger sizes available.
the bird is a bit bigger than I expected too, but well, shoes are small :-D

you will not believe what just happened... the shelf where I placed the bird just collapsed, out of the blue. I was the happy owner of the bird for... 48 hours.
(I don't blame my luck, I know it was totally my fault not to secure it properly. I guess I didn't deserved that beauty...)

I'd really like one of these, with all the blue replaced with red. Red stripy jumper and red hair,a goth version! rawr!

Blue replaced by hot pink, then he'd be a punky goth :) - red would make his jumper look like Dennis the Menace.

I need help with this shade of pink.
I have this Ouch: http://rotocasted.com/toy/221... />
I need to know whether in real life this 'fluoro' shade is the same as my one. I have the possibility of getting a fluoro Ouch this week and have been advised that it looks almost identical in shade - please tell me if this is correct.

That's great doc18, thanks for doing the photo. I can see it's definitely a different shade.
May I ask another question - does the fluoro have a faint silver sparkle effect to it?
