I couldn't possibly comment, Sir What a Face

Borat looks more like an overweight Freddie Mercury to me, though. Put him in a yellow jumpsuit and the dubious chest works... umm... slightly better.
More woolly celeb doll daftness about if you Google 'Knitted Icons'.

Good one Ted! If memory serves I think TamedLamia has done a bit of South Parkery on the Elboys.

yea, it's strange how similar those south park stuff still looks... Very Happy

Here you can see my southpark-Elboys... What a Face

And speaking of selfmade knitted figures...not exactly knitted but made of wool too...

click enlarges!
This is Mr. Peter Gabriel ca. 1973 in his "Watcher of the Skies"-Costume Embarassed

I also have a wool version of Jon Bon Jovi, Steve Howe (Yes), Kory Clarke (Warrior Soul), Fred Coury and Jeff LaBar (Cinderella) and then I have two "No-Name-Barbie"-Dolls who should be "Bikers" but looked so much like Robbin Crosby and Juan Croucier of Ratt. And of Mr. Croucier I also have a self made ragdoll! Shocked

So I would be really curious about those "Elbow Action Dolls" clown

Thanx!

I copied some quotes from the original post to commend it on-topic What a Face

Wouldn't it be great to have a Guy Garvey stuffed doll? And when you squeezed his tummy he'd say things like "Mantra Luna!" and "Everyone still OK?"

Or is that weird? Rolling Eyes

Do you not think? I'd find it weird if you had a doll of me that said things like "Bring me wine" and "Ooooh, but i could just murder a cupcake"!!!!

sundaygirl wrote:

I like what your action figure would say!!! I'm afraid mine would just say things like "Oooops." and "Whateverrrr..."

Or maybe "I'm Guy Garvey of Elbow, and this could be my finest hour!" Cool

But the "everyone still ok" might fit best... Laughing
