Imitation is Flattery

September 22nd, 2009 by Just+Mike | Filed under Art.

But a blatant rip-off is just disgraceful! Taco Bell has completely ripped off Kid Robot with their new kid’s meal toys. Called Bell Hedz they look wayyyy too much like Dunny’s with their various personas and packaging. Of course one can argue that it’s cool that the vinyl toy scene may get bigger than it was, but a lot of people in the scene seem are also taking a purist perspective. What do you think?







In response to this monstrosity KidRobot had a rally in New York City where they gave away 1000 Dunny vinyl toys, shirts, and stickers to “show what REAL vinyl is”. Here’s their campaign for it.
