Please tell me this is a joke? Does Taco Bell really think they can get away with this? Clearly they are totally jacking Kidrobot! These little guys practically  have the same bodies as the Kidrobot’s “Dunny” and “Munny“. The  packaging is the same and they are blind boxed just like the Kidrobot toys.  (They come packaged in identical boxes. The boxes are the same in every way and you can not see what is inside.)

The only difference I spot with these vinyl figures are their heads, since they are shaped like bells. Bells! Haha! I get it…Taco Bell, Bellheadz. Brilliant! Original! NOT!

Big brands want to be associated with this street art movement because its a way for them to look cool. You know what’s not cool? Big companies jacking other companies ideas and selling them as their own. That’s WACK!

Check out this New “Knorr Sidekicks” commercial. Doesn’t that salt shaker resemble a Kidrobot Munny as well? Hmmm……….
