Violet Soda Lady 8” Dunny by Junko Mizuno x Kidrobot

Violet Soda Lady 8” Dunny by Junko Mizuno x Kidrobot

Kidrobot is excited to announce the official release of Junko Mizuno’s newest production 8” Dunny, the Violet Soda Lady! Following the sold out release of the convention exclusive Berry Chocolate Lady 8” Dunny at San Diego Comic-Con (seen here), Kidrobot will be dropping its companion piece next Friday, July 31st, at Kidrobot.com, Kidrobot retail locations and select retailers worldwide for $100. That same day Junko Mizuno will be holding a very special signing at Kidrobot San Francisco from 6-9pm where fans can get their Violet Soda Lady Dunnys signed by its designer!

As Junko Mizuno explained “The Purple Soda Girl Dunny that I designed in 2012 was very hard to create, so I'm really happy and excited that her big sisters, Violet Soda Lady and Berry Chocolate Lady, are coming out! I hope they will find a lot of happy owners! I think of my Purple Soda Girl Dunny from 2012 as a daughter of Kuro Megami that I designed for Kidrobot Black Series. When I designed her, I was using the photos I took of old god and goddess statues at Asian Art Museum as reference. So Kuro Megami is kind of like a goddess representing my art. Purple Soda Girl and the two new 8” Dunnys are all her daughters who have the same goddess-like feeling.”
