Featured What are these 2 vintage toys? Theu look like Humpty Dumpty & his son w/a hangover + a butt crack?!

I watch that show as well Ruth for the life of me I don't know why.

 

What would you all value them at?

 

It may be an art called encaustic. Encaustic painting is a painting technique in which pigments are mixed with hot liquid wax.

Here are some sculptural encaustic works ...

Scroll down a ways and you'll see something similar. Doesn't seem like they've been active anywhere for a long time.

Evelyn: LOL! I KNEW we were kindred spirits!

 

I KNOW I've seen them sometime/somewhere before, but at the moment have no clue where.........MAYBE it will come to me!!!! I rather like them too!!!!

 

I worked in a Histology Lab for many years! Yep, they do look like fat, which was one of the worst smelling things to come down from the OR..

 

We both have a thing for half fascination/half grossout TV? Maybe that explains why I watched that Martha Stewart tag sale TV special the other night and followed it up with Forged in Fire.

 

Bit redundant now but they reminded me of this a bit:

 

Oh wow! Was that on a British TV show?

 

It's actually a music video from 2001 by The Supermen Lovers, called Starlight. It was a hit here, not huge but reasonably popular, though I actually believe the artists are mostly French. It was released in Europe only, I think for some reason, and not the US though I may be wrong xx

 

I've never heard of it, but the buttheads look about the same.

 

Really does look similar but it's quite an obscure reference xx
