This Bud’s For You
I’ve been hanging onto this title since August. A new production toy by Jon is finally here in the form of a Blow Up Doll (BUD) by Jamungo. In typical Jon fashion, he has defused the implicit (albeit cartoon) violence of the figure with doodles (and fruit). If you were a reader of the toy blog I used to edit, you may recall that I HATE BLIND BOX TOYS and wrote a lengthy ‘expose’ on that packaging practice. While some major companies (including Kidrobot) are now contractually forbidding retailers from opening blind box toys to sell them individually, luckily Jamungo is not. There are actually quite a few desirable pulls in this particular BUD Series 3, but I like to know exactly what I’m buying: these days especially. I already picked up my favorites from the excellent San Francisco-based Ningyoushi. You can find Jon’s BUD for ten bucks right here. Order one, and tell them Jeremy said they were “The Bomb!” Apple and Pommie not included.
