Fortune 8 Inch Dunny & SDCC 09 Exclusive Luck 8 Inch Dunny by Mr. Shane Jessup

The Blot has been hesitant to discuss Kidrobot’s San Diego Comic Con 2009 exclusives because the company had not released any photos of the actual figures. All we’ve known for a few weeks now is that there would be three exclusives by Mr. Shane Jessup, Deph and a collaboration between Amanda Visell and Frank Kozik. Well all that changed today because "for the first time in over 3 years KR is finally revealing their San Diego Comic-Con exclusive releases BEFORE the Con!” (link)

Kidrobot - Gold Fortune 8 Inch Dunny & San Diego Comic Con 2009 Exclusive Black Luck 8 Inch Dunny by Mr. Shane Jessup
On July 23rd Kidrobot will be releasing the first of its three SDCC 09 exclusives and it is an 8 inch black Luck Dunny by Mr. Shane Jessup. The 8” Luck Dunny is the chase colorway to MSJ’s new gold 8” Fortune Dunny (which will be released worldwide on the very same day). Both versions come with a red envelope and gold coin necklace, ensuring the tides of fate sway in your favor! I can’t begin to tell you how annoyed I am that I won’t be getting to San Diego until 11am on the 23rd, because all of the black 8 inch Luck Dunnys are sure to be long gone by then. If anyone wants to hook The Blot up please shoot me an email!

Kidrobot - San Diego Comic Con 2009 Exclusive by Mr. Shane Jessup Teaser
Both figures will retail for $75 each, but the black Luck Dunny will only be available at San Diego Comic Con 2009. So make sure you’re at the Kidrobot booth early (#4529) as all these figures are sure to sell out, especially with Mr. Shane Jessup on hand to sign them. The gold 8 inch Fortune Dunny has a limited edition production run of 1000 figures, while the black 8 inch Lucky Dunny is limited to just 200 figures.

Mr. Shane Jessup will be signing at Kidrobot’s SDCC Booth #4529 on Thursday, July 23th from 11am-1pm. There will be a limited number of Fortune and Luck Dunnys available for signing.
