Yes, that's "Gossamer," the large, hairy, orange monster from the
Looney Tunes and
Merrie Melodies cartoons. His giant tennis shoes and heart-shaped face first appeared in a mad scientist Bugs Bunny cartoon, but it was Marvin the Martian — in a Duck Dodgers and the Return of the 24½th Century short — that finally revealed the big guy's name! Inspired by this classic character, Alexis "
Playful Gorilla" Rivera sculpted the pictured 6-inch tall hand-painted piece. Currently on display at the
Menace Inc. Studios gallery as part of the "Childish Playthings" exhibition, interested parties can purchase this one-of-a-kind statue from
HERE for $300.
