What the hell are doing with a Rover bumper?

What the hell are doing with a Rover bumper?

Bashing your fat giraffe with it.

I looked through one of my buyers past purchases once, boy did I get a shock

My giraffe deserves better than that. At the very least use a Lexus next time.

[eastmidswhizzkid]

isn't it a little on the tall side?

[Ed Rhombus]

Depends what you use it for!

The long and the short of it is that a lot of work went into making it, and since I've had Edmund it has to sit in the loft room on a shelf. Soon he'll be able to reach there and I'd hate to have to box it away. So I want it to go to someone who'll display and value it.

Sad I know

The woman who made them (I can't remember who she is but she was on Dominion) made the Eldritch dolls from modified Action Man heads (for the bone structure) and Ken doll bodies (for weediness - still too fat though). I suppose she could have made Peter Andre dolls from the leftovers. There were a few editions of the Eldritch doll and were designed to be used as toilet roll guards! I nearly bought one myself but decided they were a bit too expensive for a bog ornament and the one I wanted (This Corrosion era) didn't come into production. There were also That Guitarist, Gary Numan and Ozzy Osbourne dolls if I remember correctly. Anyone else got one?

Edit: They used to be available from Broody Hen Designs but it looks like they're well and truly out of production.

Sorry, but that's hilarious.

Is it a voodoo doll, could we stick pins in it to "encourage" a new album?

Just hope he is not (comfortably) numb for our efforts to encourage him.

You'll have to ask the new owner tonight. Looks like he may be off to Germany


(mind you since he's been in the house, the gap between Rhombus CDs has been ever increasing)
