I always wondered if they would mesh well together from behind, considering their shapes. They look awesome.

Lol, I think your taking that a weeeee bit far  Who knows how the world will look at NAGx3 hundreds of years from now ? The small numbers produced will most likely render them virtually invisible in the archaeological record. Nevertheless, fingerprint analysis has yielded interesting results in the field of ancient figurine studies. The most notable in my opinion being a analysis of figurine production over the course of centuries at Teotihuacan, Mexico which showed that women were originally in charge of small scale production of figurines for domestic use. But once figurine production became a large scale, high-output commercial activity with the notable introduction of mould-use, the task was taken over by male craftsmen.

 Re: A Nag Pa I Root
i'm not sure if this has ever been mentioned...but it was news to me tonight... after two & a half years displayed MIB,,,i finally unbagged my mishka siamese to find that it is on milky clear vinyl  i always assumed it was on white vinyl,,,the bag is cloudy white so it was hard to see any clearness... i know some people rail on keeping things MIB,,,but it pays off at times like these,,when you do finally open it & it is like getting a whole new toy

 Re: A Nag Pa I Root
Oh yeah, bags hide the best of toys, totally agree. MIB is really not the case if you seriously love a toy. Well done Jeb, I've never seen one of those Siamese but always suspected that there was a lot more than to what I could see in the shots.
