I called the owner of Toykyo today. They recently told me that they have collectors who purchase every sculpture they make. So i guess they get contacted first. The previous birds were for sale at Toykyo for +-$500 each, Colette sold them for +-$1080 :-s and they were gone in no time. The new birds are $400 each + shipping.
Let me know if you want to buy one, i can call right away. -

Vera, listen, please...I don't have an issue about other people's semi-personal comments. I love them! Sil and I did that, but some people were annoyed. As far as I see it, it makes Roto alive. It's not like the clever comments are standing in queue!!!! Mostly it's just ; "I love this..blah blah".... But the moment people are getting personal, it's all : GET A ROOM! . Roto was meant to connect people, right?
Maybe in the near future Sergey will add a chat room????????? -

I agree,personal comments are interesting and bring a little humanity to the collecting experience.
I wouldn't like to think we are all po-faced collectors just in it for the investment!
These are toys! Let's have fun! :) -

thank you for pointing this out, TOY and MaquetteCity!
because of the "complaints" a while ago, i feel a bit uncomfortable now to make more than 1 or 2 personal comments at all...
and VERA, i love to read your comments on "the holy grail" and to see your excitement about it!!! -

YESSSSSS!! :D
that pic made me smile up to both ears!! smart idea and i gotta say, i love your taste in shoes! i would wear that kind and color of shoe, too...but it seems, like you got tiny feet! lucky girl! -
13 years ago
actually, I am terribly unlucky with shoes :-( I have tiny feet indeed, but not enough tiny for those beautiful red shoes... I just bought them online and unfortunately they are too small. I love them a lot, so they might end up as... display shoes, haha. lesson learnt: never buy shoes online, buy only toys :-)
-

@ penguin: i gotta agree, it looks bigger than i expected as well, but as vera said, she has tiny feet, hence the shoes are tiny, too ;)
@vera: may i ask for your shoe size? your feet might look like baby ones next to a 10 1/5 - 11
and can't you exchange those ones for a size bigger or was that an ebay auction and not an online store??? -
13 years ago
I wear size 36 (european) and yes, it was an eBay auction, no bigger sizes available.
the bird is a bit bigger than I expected too, but well, shoes are small :-D

-

you will not believe what just happened... the shelf where I placed the bird just collapsed, out of the blue. I was the happy owner of the bird for... 48 hours.
(I don't blame my luck, I know it was totally my fault not to secure it properly. I guess I didn't deserved that beauty...)
my heart is broken -

Not as good as the original, but hopefully it will console the widow. On its way to Romania.

VERA, once again:
THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ....for making me aware, that joel has those beauties in his store now!
if not for you, i would have missed quite a few skelves in the past and now also my very first parra, which i fell in love with from the first moment i saw the photo!
i saw, they are sold out on KR, so i just ordered from joel and can't wait to kiss that big glossy red bubble butt!!!!!
EDIT: i did not get a chance (until now) to click on your link, because i wanted to make sure, i get Pierced!
WOWOWOW, i freaking love that song + the video almost even more so! i am giggling and smiling and might make myself some oatmeal with a banana right now. got hungry for some reason...breakfast at 3 pm! awesome ^_^
