What is that plastic they make statues from which is not brittle? Plasticine? Solid Vinyl? So cool. I'd get one for a librarian I know, who already loves the shirt and bought one after I introduced her to the strip, if it was affordable. I teach ESL and I see her fairly often.

Sadly none that really look like Vachel. Yeah, I did the research, and even starting molding a prototype, of a vachel statue. But (based on book sales, etc) I didn't have the market to commision that many, and so the price was too high, so it never got done. He was going to be eating a hotdog, modeled somewhat after the <a href="http://www.picable.com/Architecture/Nasty-Gargoyles.644491" rel="nofollow">Notre Dame garrgoyle</a>. @charles, those are all excellent plushies, wow.

I keep imagining that scene where Vavhel picks up one of the penguins off the ground and hands it to Dee. Then tells her it's a super realistic penguin doll. for some reason when people say Vachel plushie.

He could reasonably respond, "You know, I *have* a phylum." OSLT. Apropos of nothing, a group of vultures is apparently called a "committee," a "venue," or a "wake." Maybe that's Vachel's problem with socializing, he just hasn't found the right venue...

I think I'd go for a Vachel, sit him next to my Tux and Opus. Y’know, this makes me wonder how many people would buy plushies of the LittleDee characters.
