OK, these are most excellent. Many of Joe Ledbetter‘s characters look great as toy art, but Mr. Bunny is just really a classic piece and an icon in the designer toy genre. Now Ledbetter has announced the release of an edition of 40 one-off, hand-painted Mutant Bunnies in resin! The 12-inch figures were designed and painted by Ledbetter and sculpted impeccably by Pretty in Plastic. Five figures have been posted in JLED’s online shop, with the first three (Mr., Miss, and Monster Bunny) already sold out.
The two available (at press time) Mutant Bunnies (red/blue Temper Bunny and orange Tiger Bunny) are offered at $1,500 each, and the remaining 35 resins will be sold “intermittently for the next year or so”. Congrats to whoever got that #3 Green Monster Mutant Bunny (ya jerkface), and nice work from Joe and Julie! Click through for closeups of all the Bunnies.
