I have these!!!

When the characters are built, they're 7 1/2 inches, on average. The backgrounds are 6 x 8 1/2 inches.

I even thought of photographing some of the characters on the backgrounds, and framing the prints in a clutster somewhere in my house. They're really cool :)

Yes- they work on my 'fridge, and the sides of my old metal desk- so I have them split up, some in both places. I got mine at my campus bookstore- and I remember there was another set. 'Maybe a castle/princess/ fairies sort of theme?

I have sons 4 and 11, who both like to play with them. It's a toss-up whether I bought them more for me or them ;)

If my son wanted to do this- I'd insist that he do such during a break- like snack bar. Otherwise? I'd help the kids with their props!

I say this having completed grad school on full scholarship, and having raised my 5th grader son, thus far, to be doing great in school- academically and behaviorally.

I value education, and some order must be maintained such that we can all get one. But, whimsy's a life necessity :)

AHAHAHAH.

Thanks for posting. I looked at all of the pics from the park. 'Loved 'em- loved the comments here :)

'Agreed on the baby. Terrifying!

*goes to check out "stuff white people do" blog*

really adorable :)

#23, Just what sort of Peace is it that you're advocating in your screenname? The cultural insensitivity of your comment suggests it's not global.

Yeah- I'm all for graffiti art in urban areas- but, around natural phenomena- for severe punishment. This guy's a punk.

Great video! Thanks for linking :)

Amazing!

I love Lawrence Welk! Agreed. It's a bizarre show. I love the clips of the characters now, reminiscing. Creepy, creepy people.

Awesome.

not only season 2 LOST, but season 3.5! Jump in if you're missing ARG 2.0 !!!!

Yeah... I'm kinda shocked that anyone'd get weirded out by this post. I imagined the Boing Boing readership to be more progressive than that... I hope comment #6 is just a joke we're not getting.

Regardless- totally agreed, the artsy/ techy appeal here resounds far beyond the utility the post has to those interested specifically in an alternative lifestyle involving cosplay. As such- it's perfect Boing! Boing! material.
