Midnight Moon Bat Vinyl Figures & Packaging


Midnight Moon Bat Vinyl Figures
Bats have a long history of being associated to fictional horror as being terrors of the night, but there’s a lack of awareness of just how important they are to our ecosystem. In fact, today there are a number of bat species that are critically endangered.

Changing the “eerie” perception of bats was one of my first projects for Nightly Made, and you have to admit they turned out super cute! Numerous followers have told me their perceptions of bats changed because of these Midnight Moon Bat vinyl figures. 

This was a year long project in collaboration with Martian Toys. The first release consisted of two color ways, Aurora and Sweet Fang, in which Sweet Fang sold out on Kidrobot day one, which is highly rare for an artist’s first-ever vinyl release!

You can read more about the project with my Q&A at Kidrobot. Products available at Martian Toys and Kidrobot.

Perfect for Hanging Upside Down! 
The figures were designed with a tail for two purposes. One was for extra support while standing, and the other for hanging upside down!
