The Munny is a toy from Kidrobot that lets the owner draw their own designs to customize its surface; Adam Sibley takes this benign toy and turns it into a sinister creation with his 'Evil Munny.'
Adam Sibley's 'Evil Munny' features two creepy eyes, one of which is enormous and bloodshot, the other of which is half-shut. With its bloody hands and blood-spattered hospital mask, this little guy looks like he came straight from a murder scene. Eep!
