Dunny Series 1 – Complete Set

Written by Ralph on 15th September, 2007

Dunny Figures are what is known as “Designer Toys”. Designer toys is a term used to describe toys and other collectibles that are produced in limited editions (as few as 50 or as many as 2000 pieces) and created by artists and designers. Designer toys employ a variety of materials; plastic and vinyl are most common, although wood and metal are occasionally used. The term also encompasses plush, cloth dolls and latex. Creators of designer toys usually have backgrounds in graphic design, illustration or self-described low-brow art; some are classically trained in art and design, while others are self-taught. Designer toys first appeared in the 1990s and are a flourishing industry.

The Dunny line is quite popular, and is only just begining to increase in demand. Also, since these are targeted more so at adults, they’re much more likely to maintain their value as opposed to trendy kids toys (ex, Webkinz).

Case in point? This Complete Series One Set is well over $1,000, with still time to go.
