BREAKING FUCKERY

Posted by Helen Killer 62 comments

Oh God, I am so, so conflicted,

Someone just sent me an email saying they saw these freshly posted on Etsy.

YouTube video of Dennis Hopper in action

Pantswetting video of this toy in motion

I am sick. Really sick about this, because as you know, the last one of these he posted, the Bill Nighy one, I bought immediately, before even posting it here. And My Paypal finger is itchy like you wouldn’t believe right now. I want these so badly.

But I am going to let someone else have a shot at this. I think I have to. It’s only fair.

But mark my words, if these aren’t sold by the end of the day, they’re going right on the counter over there, and you can all kiss my ass.

This guy is SO good with the polymer clay sculpting. He doesn’t even have to name these things to know that they’re Dennis Hopper and Conan O’Brien.

Go ahead push that button. I think COCO would want you to have this. Conan is way better then that Jay Leno shit and he had a mittens. I sure hope he comes back this fall with something that’ll knock em dead.

He really is amazing. I couldn’t sculpt my way out of a paper bag. Putting them on a windup body just takes it to the next level. I mean what does go well with a tiny well sculpted celebrity head?

If you consider the care put into sculpting these–the price is a bargain. :) Too bad I’m not buying right now–I’d get Hopper in a heartbeat.

Larriva’s windups are so awe-inspiring that I forget to look at the rest of his work. His paintings are beautiful! His graphic work is great too.

This would make an excellent Valentine gift:

I’m sorry I was late to this party. Oh well, I didn’t want that adorable COCO anyway, his hair was MUCH too bouffant, and that string dance was CLEARLY missing strings!

(Now pardon me while I go nurse my sadness with another type of sour grape…)

At only $65 – I think these are a great investment in true art. They can only appreciate in value over the years. I see this artist going places in the future. But, even if he / she doesn’t become well known, these particular items stand on their own (or hop around on their own – as the case may be).

Genius!

Not for lack of appreciation of the artistic skillfulness factor, but these things give me some creepy flashbacks to a weird looking, scowling, androgynous, wood-faced puppet named Casey on a kids TV show when I small enough to have the shit scared out of me every time Mr. Dress-Up came on with that demonic little friend of his. I had recurring nightmares about that pickle-nosed doll and nearly crapped my sweatpants when I saw the Bill Nighy jumping head a couple weeks ago. **shiver**

I don’t know if I’m the emailer you’re talking about, but yea. Last night I was on regretsy really late, and went over to etsy just for shiz ‘n giggles. Really, this was so crazy, I thought maybe I had fallen asleep in my post 2am internet daze, and dreampt it all up. But apparently I didn’t. Sometimes dreams do come true.
