[middy]

there is a tv times on ebay and the seller claims it is 'sold out'......is he correct? It's not uncommon for someone to use that line. There were 500 produced so if it has sold out it's done so very quickly. I can see why, it is a really first class sculpt with great detail. :D

[Number 452]

A brilliant piece. I put this down on my Xmas list to the latest Mrs 452, so if she has failed, she can consider herself the latest ex Mrs 452 ;)

[purplebudg1e]

Yes, It HAS sold out at RHD. Confirmed when we called Weds, they were in single figures on Monday.

It is an excellent piece, expecting mine on xmas morning!!!

Otherwise, Mr Budgie,....................same as 452!!!:eek::eek:

[Carla]

Well i bought 100 of 'em so they only had another 400 to sell

Glad I did now. :D

[Draydurbullies]

We also have ours:cool:

Frankly I don't give a stuff if the TV Times has sold out, (although my local newsagents still has a pile of them). Now if it was the W&G Radio Times issue that would be different:D

[middy]

We all knew what you meant, some people just have far to much time;):rolleyes::D

[Number 452]

It's not a matter of having too much time, rather than using what time you have wisely;)

Update: Received and boy what a fantastic piece, the detail is out of this world, Bravo RHD Bravo:)

[Rosies Mum]

I'm really pleased you got your W & G piece :cool:

And you don't have the expensive of a divorce to go through :eek::D

[purplebudg1e]

Ho Ho Ho, (said in a santa voice) I got mine too...........:D:D How many parts did RHD have to cast for this piece??? It is an excellent piece, Well done

No expense, I just chop them up:eek: Mind you, the patio is a bit whiffy :eek:

Mrs 452 is in my good books what with this piece and a few other nice surprises. Appears she has learnt from the msitakes of the previous 8 wives. Guess she's realised how lucky she is to have me when so many others are queuing at the door ;)

[Rosies Mum]

I think the queue at the door was to get into the Mill :rolleyes::D

It was Matt and Dan we were queuing up to see, well Liz and I were anyway :D

If anyone is still looking for this piece, my local stockist still had one for sale when I visited today. I'd be happy to pick it up for any forum member if anyone was in need. :D PM or e-mail.

Saw one in a shop window today as well, so they are prob sold out at RHD but not in the shops.

Thanks Captain, but hardly a surprise, as like the CG's, these are for serious collectors, unlike the comical canine figures who are clearly for those who live in a parallel universe where dogs apparently go around dressed as whimsical figures of fun to please their simple minded owners who in every day life wouldn't (quite rightly) dream of inflicting such dreadful humiliation upon their delightful family pets.

Are you lookin for a reaction???:eek::eek::rolleyes:

Have you given Carla your password by any chance Number 452, I think she's posted still logged on as you :p:D

A certain young gentlemen (of whom I have the greatest respect) posts regularly here and elsewhere taking the michael out of our beloved CG collections, referring to them as toys and to us as children. Hence, a little retaliation is in order. In truth, we all know that he is desperately jealous, his only regret being that he wished he had started collecting the CG series rather than delving into the canine dressing-up box at nursery :)

I know Dray often comments, but who is the young gentleman of which you speak ;):D

Maybe RHD need to give the OES Clown a revolving bow tie :rolleyes:

What a brilliant idea, we could have our own rotating bit to play with!!! ( do feel "left out" not having moving parts)
:p;)

We saw the Wallace and Gromit Curse of the Were-rabbit, It was the first time we had watched it,..........What a brilliant film!!! plenty of scope for future pieces.

It was my first time watching this too. I resisted the temptation to grab a notepad and start jotting down ideas for pieces though. :D One question though, Can they surpass the Radio Times piece next Xmas? :confused:

It will take some doing, I swear I can actually read the channel listings in the Radio Times that Wallace is holding - Brilliant. :)

[Captain Flack]

I swear I can actually read the channel listings in the Radio Times that Wallace is holding - Brilliant. :) I have and what it says is - The Great Escape, A Christmas Carol, The Sound Of Music, The Wizard Of Oz, The Morecambe and Wise Christmas Special and The Snowman. :D;):rolleyes:

Getting a bit carried away mr wobble, i think printing was first used in the fifteenth century by William Caxton, so where have you been for the past half a millenium? :p

With the Christmas Radio Times piece already selling out, as far as RHD stock room is concerned........Would it be right to hazzard a guess that all the other piece's within this brand new and exciting collection, would have already sold 500 each as well?

Well Dray, you're the biggest posterior* licker on the forum so go and find out, why do you keep asking us such questions man!

*I did post another word but i thought as it's a W&G thread an impressionable child might be reading so i changed it.

[Carla]

Carla what does it feel like to be so lonely

I dunno, i will ask my other 'alf, my best friend and her boyfriend, and my neighbour, who have all had the day off because of the snowfalls and earlier had come around and kindly offered to empty several bottles of my malt tonight, to which they succeeded with all due reverence.

Oh and they have also been reading your posts and have come to the same conclusion as myself about you Dray.............but it's a secret....so shush.
