Check the latest travesty from McFarlane:

<sarcasm>I really really like the club foot/wooden leg/watchholder thingy Jack has in this. And the river of blood flowing from his Gladstone bag. </sarcasm>
One wonders how he was ever able to escape, being that he was painting the town quite literally red...

Let's all write to Todd McFarlane and ask him what the h is the matter with him. Perhaps he'll do Ed Gein next...

Actually, I believe Ed Gein was already done... not sure if it was by McFarlane or not.

Yeah, I've seen that. I have yet to see the actual resin though. Hey, is that you at coral castle in your profile pic?

I like these dolls.
If you go on E-bay the dolls are selling for up to a hundred dollars a piece, and all the self-published books by vain-glorious Ripper writers - first edition and signed if you please - are going for a dollar fifty cents.
You can get a signed first edition from Cornball for a dime.
A diary for a buck.
An original first edition!
But if you want a doll, you gotta pay, big bucks.
Love it.

Hi Jason!

Yes, it was taken at the Coral Castle. Good eye!

Hi AP!

A hundred dollars? Holy crow! Back when I collected plastic, a mint in box 'party Angela' was only about $75 and I thought anybody paying that much for a toy you couldn't play with was barking.
E-bay does have some odd listings for Jack the Ripper though. Have you seen the dogs playing pool picture yet?

Hi Paul!

Jumper cables? Of course, now we know what he started the fire in 13 Miller's Court with...



Love and Rockets!

Would y'all believe that I lived about ten minutes from coral castle for a large portion of my life and I have never seen it? Other than driving past it on my way to the mall.

Nope, I can't believe it. As we so adequately ascertained last tuesday, you simply do not exist.

Tis that simple :-)

In all seriousness, I'd believe it. It's not like you claimed you help him make it :P

I'd like to peep it out next time I'm down that way, which probably won't be for a while.

Here is a link to one of the many Coral Castle web sites for all those wondering what we are talking about.

P.S. Give it a few months, you'll be able to buy the resin from EB for $5.99

Hmmm.... I am not altogether sure how to take that Mikey dear. Pondering that. I am sure what you meant was I am entirely too cool to do touristy things, right? But then you'd be insulting Candy, who'd kick your arse and yourself who obviously recognized it.

Smooch,

Ally
