Yeti 8” Dunny by Pause Designs

Kidrobot - Yeti Dunny  8” Vinyl Figure by Pause Designs

The North American Yeti is real! From Canadian studio Pause Designs comes the Yeti Dunny, a mystical 8” vinyl enigma. Normally a peaceful, timid creature, the Great North American Yeti is seldom seen outside his cozy suburban home. However, when its territory is encroached upon the Yeti can become extremely protective and in some cases even violent. With gradiating fur plus fingers and toes, this is one Dunny design that’s almost too good to be true.

Kidrobot - Yeti Dunny  8” Vinyl Figure by Pause Designs

This crazy looking Yeti Dunny is actually based on a custom Dunny designed by Pause Studios for a collector a number of years ago. Pause always tries to find new ways to use the Dunny platform in its designs. As Pause explained to Kidrobot, “We try to have the Dunny shape not immediately recognizable, while still keeping all the elements of the original platform. We had never seen the Dunny shape flipped upside down before, and wanted to create a Dunny custom that would stick out in people’s minds.”

The Yeti Dunny by Pause Designs stands 8” tall and features 1 in 6 black chase figure. Collectors can try to capture the elusive Yeti starting today, Thursday, December 5th, at Kidrobot stores, kidrobot.com, and select retailers worldwide for $59.99.
