Title: Golden amber penguin. Any ideas, please?
Post by: Della on August 29, 2008, 12:41:44 AM

Hi all,  ;D

Does anyone have any ideas where this chap originates from? He is a tad over 5" tall and weighs 1kg.
Despite the photo, the controlled bubbles are spiral and uniform.

TIA

Hi Della , its nice to see the little bobble on the end of the beak that shows it hasnt been messed with its very vunerable ,if you transport it stick a bit of bluetack on it for extra protection,if you sell it should do well . :hiclp:JP

Hi Della,


Here is a picture of what John was talking about..............  More a Chaffinch than a penguin.

They also came in Sky Blue, Ruby and Flint.  Yours is Gold.

Regards Patrick.

Ps. This Aqua one has a tail, Ray made only a few like this.
