 Garga-mouse! Say what? Ok, for all the Gargamel smart guys out there: What is this?    I thought I had seen this a while ago, but it's dated '08. Genuine LASK sticker in the bottom left of the photo for reference... as you can see, it's pretty tiny- not more than 2.5" tall.

Re: Garga-mouse! Say what? I believe these were given as gifts from Gargamel for New Years last year. More info here: http://cometdebris.blogspot.com/2008/01 ... gamel.html

Re: Garga-mouse! Say what? It's an exceptionally appealing sculpt, that's for sure. Cute, but not in a totally kiddie sort of way. Really cool!

Re: Garga-mouse! Say what? THAT'S IT!!! Thank you! I thought I had searched Koji's entire blog, but I guess I missed that one. Ah, I can stop thinking about it. It's pretty neat, though. Very fine details, and the vinyl is sort of sparkly. He shall become Eaton's friend.

Re: Garga-mouse! Say what? Sure would be nice to see this as an official release. You KNOW it'd be super-popular.

Re: Garga-mouse! Say what? Ya, they have a very nice flat gray/blue with starkly vinyl look about them. I'm surprised anyone has parted with theres, as I think they were only given out as New Years gifts. Year of the Rat in case anyone missed that...

Re: Garga-mouse! Say what? yes it was new years gift. It came to my home in a round clear plastic can with a postcard and fake grass inside.
I don't know what is meant by official release unless you mean if it was sold by Gargamel which it never was.

Re: Garga-mouse! Say what? It really is a cool piece and the vinyl has a real different texture than the normal super smooth finish that gargamel does. The packaging is really neat too. A GREAT toy.

Re: Garga-mouse! Say what? The color is supposed to mimick patinaed bronze.
I think I just made some spelling errors. Been in japan too long and thinking in engrish now.

I agree- it's a little odd owning something intended for another person. But I guess I will give it a good home. Interesting note about the patina effect, Baikin. The vinyl is also very lightweight, which is unusual for Gargamel things.

Re: Garga-mouse! Say what? I love when people do things like this...little ways of saying thanks to the people who matter to them. This little piece is really cool...and though I'd LOVE to have one, it would feel a little odd...
who the eff would give one of these up?!?

Re: Garga-mouse! Say what? My understanding, although i don't know how, is they actually cast it themselves.
