Metallic Fruit Brute Dorbz

Postby CaseyJones14 » Tue Jun 20, 2023 7:17 pm

It's been a long time since there was a new Dorbz thread so I figured I'd start one about this awesome piece I just got :D

So supposedly Funko was planning on releasing a metallic Fruit Brute Dorbz, but the project got canceled. Below you will see the hand-painted, ceramic resin prototype that I received today! :love10: It really makes me wonder how many other projects were canceled halfway through and what else may be out there. Lots of you know about Scooby Dum and the DC Bombshells Supergirl because they were further along in the process, but I personally have never seen anything like this!

That right there is an epic piece of dorbz history! Couldn't think of a better person to have this. Since its ceramic resin proto, is it super fragile and/or heavy?

Thank you! It's definitely heavier than your typical Dorbz. The head pops off the peg pretty easily, but I've already got it put in a case and probably won't move from my shelf for a while lol

I think the only move to make is to put this beauty on a gold chain and wear it at sdcc. It’s what the people want.

I think this looks really awesome. I think I still have the fruit brute dorbz ride? I feel like they made one of those? I'll have to go digging. Nice piece you have added to your collection for sure!

The ride is GITD and then there is also a regular one that came in a 2-pack with Yummy Mummy. My guess is that they thought about metallic for the ride and then switched to GITD.

That is an awesome piece, too bad the production got cancelled because it looks so cool. Congrats on obtaining that piece.
