    I know a lot of people love them, but am I the only one that isn't particularly moved by them?

    I personally like them a lot since I first heard of the project last summer.. BM's drawings and sculputres are a blast, I really suggest you having a look at his website!
    I'm looking forward to be holding those in my hands..

    I think they're beautiful.

    These are the first american vinyl toy that I've purchased in awhile.

    I think they are interesting, but I don't think I will purchase one. I like orange and red the best, and those ones are the most limited.

    They kind of remind me of penguins :shock:

    these are fantastic. They are a lot smaller than I thought they would be.

    Like Horseshoe, this is my first western vinyl buy for a bit. Been a long wait on these but they are very verry much worth it. A little smaller than I was expecting, but the quality is fantastic. My previous western buys had some quality issues but these are real nice. A little spooky to some people too.
    I'm keen for the others, but it could be hard work getting them.

    I picked up the little sour comics by BM last year and after looking through them I couldnt wait for these to come out. In the comic these litte guys are actually vicious killers! Has anyone seen the Brendan plush before? If your interested I can post a pic of mine.

    I slept on the plush. When I first came across his work I saw them on his site but was new to the whole toy thing and not really buying very much at all so I left it at that. Kept an eye on them, but one day they was all gone. That one day I was looking to buy!!! A great plush Horseshoe. Post a pic.

    I am not feeling these at all. A local friend of mine kept giving me headup when they came available, but I didn't bite - I seriously don't need anymore stuff to collect anyway.....

    I really like these. I got mine in the mail yesterday, and they have instantly turned into a couple of my favorite pieces. :)

    I picked up the first two and am hunting for the others.

    I like their naturalistic style versus other figures.
    Thumbs up.

    I think the other two haven't been released yet and it sounds like at least the Orange is a little while off.
