I hope the figs are big enough so that the box is big enough to fit on my head.

she reads but won't post (even though a forum shares her name).

She already saw this thread and told me "get to it, I want them all and a proto." I guess I am on the hunt.

From what I've read in the past it might be a challenge worthy of you. Good luck.

The box might almost fit on your head ;-) The toy is fairly large -- it's been awhile since we shot these, but they are probably a good 10 to 12 inches long.

http://www.vinylpulse.com/2006/02/cheshire_cat_fr.html for lots of close-up pics.

Black one scored! Thanks for the heads up. I like the original too, all GID, but the colors don't work for me in the day. First piece of western vinyl this year and I'm stoked. :D

so i ordered the black but i have questions.

i know the white says "sold out," but was it ever for sale? cause the front page says that "2 colorways available now ( Original full GID & Black on Black)"

on that note, does that mean that the original pink colorway glows everywhere? not just the eyes and mouth?

yeah, i was wondering the exact same thing... maybe it is a marketing tactic .. and they also have 5 pictured on the page when there are six. weird

well id actually like the original version too if its stripes glowed or something--but i have to say, the pics of it on VP from the 1988 show make it look like it has a really bad paint job--look at the teeth!

The picture of the original Cheshire Cat on the Span of Sunset website is a lot better. I like the original, the Mickey, and the black. I can only afford to buy one right now though :?

This is a truly awesome collaboration. The Cheshire Cat was the perfect choice for a Disney collaboration. I love it :D

yeah. that pic is pretty shitty... i guess i'll have to hold my breath now. from the pics on the site, they look good (especially the red)... but guess it really isn't close enough to tell. hopefully you can't mess up a black one.

I, too, am wondering what "full GID" means.

i called span and asked about the glow of the original pink, and the lady who answered said she thought it was just the mouth and eyes that glowed. i dunno though--the pink body looks kinda translucent (and i know most glow vinyl is like that)

I doubt the stripes glow, but it would be cool if they did.
