Just saw the pics earlier this morning of that and the other colorway. It's hideous, but will sell out and be flipped for tons of dough, no doubt.

I like how it appears no one has any qualms when it comes to flipping this type of Western crap.

The Ledbetter Trexi comes to mind.

Oh, I myself would totally buy one to trade or sell if it didn't require any effort. I just think it's interesting how we won't do this with the stuff we collect on this board, but when it comes to stuff people collect on "that other board" it's open season.
Unfortunately (or fortunately) I don't feel like putting in the time/effort to get Jled crap to support my own collecting.

 Wouldn't buying this thing just because it's an easy flip regardless of how it looks just incourages more pieces like this in the future? As a creator I'm not sure if that would make me happy. I mean I would have made money sure but hollow at the same time. I think I respect Jled too much as an artist to do that. Just my two centavos

Vaguely reminds me of the "pushme-pullyou" double-headed llama thing from the original Dr. Doolittle movie, in concept. Execution of concept is another matter, ahem. Pogue nailed the problem with this thing succinctly. Not only does it not "work" as a collaboration, it also fails to showcase anything distinctive or attractive about either contributor. There's an uncharacteristic general lack of enthusiasm for it over at the KR SDCC forum. That says something.

Is that the actual piece? If so, it's got to be the shoddiest looking thing I've seen in a long time.
