This version would look good with the black 'Take a rest bird' by Parra.

it would look good with the black take a rest bird, with a dead bird, with a full ashtray, with a banana peel, it would look good with anything, because it's so freaking awesome!

i'm soooooooooo freakin jelous of everyone who has gotten this, if anyone changes their mind and wants to sell i will give it a good home. (nice score irit, i couldn't bring myself to asking him, felt he had a ton of muling already, and i left it late)

@MisterQuiche: I am almost sure it didn't sold out at SDCC, there are chances to be available online (I was very lucky to get it, with the help of a very kind person)

Hey guys, I, too, am pretty sure this didn't sell out. It's a great piece, but the price makes it hard for some people. I picked up three at SDCC. One for me and two to mule. I would have gotten even more probably had I seen this Roto thread. My suggestion is to email Ben at 3DRetro. Tell him Jeremy sent you! Try: retroadmin@3dretro.com

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! :) -

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 :-)
-
13 years ago
@ 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...)

I really like Sfar's style and I've been tracking toys from this series to no avail... eventuality I found this figure rummaging through the PCCillin figure boxes of a comics store in Bordeaux :)
However this was the only one I could find, so if any French people know of their whereabouts and what to do me a favour and pick some up for me at the local store I'd be very grateful! -
