Raku Dunny "Day and Night" by Huck Gee

What did we tell you... hot off the teaser release of yesterdays Kidrobot Twitter account stating "Gold Life is coming..." we have less than 24hours in between for them to officially announce the release of Huck Gee's "Day and Night" Raku 8" Dunny series! Now we had speculated that there would be a day/night version, and we were right, but what we did not know is that on top of those 2 Kidrobot plans on releasing a retailer variant set as well as their own set. The Red 8" Raku Dunnys (Night & Day versions) are Kidrobot exclusives, sold only at Kidrobot stores and kidrobot.com for $100 each whereas the Black 8" Raku Dunnys (Night & Day versions) are available only at specialty retailers for $100 each... all of this is going down May 26 so if you wanna get right down to it, $400 is what the entire set will cost ya!!! Keep in mind, these are based off Huck's customs, and from the looks of them... Kidrobot did a friggen sweet job !

If you remember back in June of 2007, Kidrobot released the Shogun and Geisha sets (2 blue, and 2 red) for the same $100 a pop price tag... but they were a little more limited at 300 each... where this new set is limited to 500 pieces each, still limited and will most likely sell out! This is a great way to snag up a cool Huck piece without paying the high price for one of his customs, so be stoked about this! These also come with some pretty stellar accessories as "Daylight's" cloth-robed Raku wears detachable peasant sandals and plastic bamboo peasant hat, coiled rope and bedroll, and a walking staff. Where "Nighttime" has a pair of claws, comes with a sculpted tail and a blade. I really like these... what are your thoughts on em?
